I have PTSD. I have nightmares especially if I fall asleep early and don't take meds.and don't have music on.
Forgot music,fell asleep before I took meds... Not good. I had a serie sof nightmares most I don't remember thank god and I half woke up several times And idiot me dived back in like oh no not giving up.
Dreamed of piles of vomit talking to me, trying to get me murderous. Dreames of shadows moving..dreamed I heArd blood curtling screams,, tried to get through window but too small, tried to hid behind dark door, yanked out by a tall murdering demon thing all shadows and horror yanked me by arm onto knife and that jerk of it hitting home woke me up.

Night terrors normally involve my friends and family. I know it isn't real now ...night terrors hUnt for hours After I wake up.

Tonight I just took meds.

I am reducing contact with my mom..it's hard.i want a reset o. Our dysfunctional relationship and I don't think I will get one. In communicated as clear as I could, she is accepting boundaries but also not responding when I try to keep partial.contact on my terms.

That was scary dream.

I fall asleep better with meds and music, too. In fact, it's 8 p.m. and I'm drinking chamomile tea. Eventually going to take my new dose of Seroquel and fall asleep. I don't always remember my dreams, but sometimes I do. Tomorrow I have an appointment with my psych case manager. I am meeting her in the office. I don't know what we will talk about! Seems I just saw her, but then again I was in the hospital relatively recently so maybe that? It's hard to reduce contact with your mom because you may have some good memories from when you were a kid in there and don't want to believe things could have ever gotten "bad".

Sometime ptsd will cause a person to have nightmares. I understand how you are feeling.
