      So, I have been having this problem with sleeping. I keep waking up and going back to sleep constantly throughout the night. I have tried listening to different music, watching different tv programs, and different ways of falling asleep. My pattern has really been off recently and I don't have any idea what to do.

      I'm wondering if sleep can be related to daily things in life. Such as stress, excitement, and problems in critical things in life (health, social, mental, or relationships). I've been extremely stressed out lately, emotional, depressed, and I'm having trouble dealing with a break up that happened not too long ago. I'm also troubled by a loss of friends and being invited to things caused by that break up. I long and wish for things that I find myself worrying about all the time. I have tried my hardest to keep my mind off these things, but they keep flooding back. I've also been holding in alot of anger and fight back tears daily. I wear a mask everyday making people believe that I am happy, but inside I'm torn apart and destroyed. I was fine over the summer, I had wonderful dreams and great sleep, but since school is back and my problems are in my face, I can't seem to face them and move on.

      Does anyone know if any of those things are what could be affecting my sleep and dreams? How can I fix this?

      This is really sad for me to be asking total strangers for advice and writing all this down on a site I barely sign on to, but it's easier to do it this way. I don't know why, but it is to me.

      Hi
      No doubt about it. Stresses and worries are the main contributors to deprivation of adequate sleep. Lack of sleep is a side effect of your unbalanced emotional state - it has little to do with dreams themselves, it's a psychological problem.
      I'm tired being sorry.

      I find sage burning to be sometimes helpful, but that&#39;s just me &#39;cause i&#39;m into shamanism.

      And i feel your pain about the emotional stuff. I just quit smoking and 10 years of repressed stress have come up a great deal. I hate to admit that I&#39;m a grown man and have emotional problems. But, alas I seem to be plowing through my problems fast

      the worst thing you can do is keep those emotions bottled up. Go to a trusted friend and cry to your hearts content. it&#39;s tough to go through but once they are out, They are out&#33;

      another thing that can continue these emotional patterns is you thinking patterns. As Soon as you feel those emotions go up in public situations replace those feelings with doing something fun. jog on the spot or laugh.
      every time you think "I&#39;m stressed out" immediadelty think of something good you&#39;ve done. write it down if you have to&#33;

      my advice might seem strange but that&#39;s what i do. I&#39;ve kept hard on working on my emotional stuff since quitting smoking, and i almost feel like my old good self again:-)

      best of luck.

      and you might want to aquaint yourself with the other forum sections. make a newbie post and get a moderator to move this to "The Lounge" or the "Help" section. you posted this in the "Dream journal" section.
