Thread: The Nightmare Week....

how about you do nothing but stuff that makes you happy throughout the day, worked for me

I do not understand what you mean? Explain with an example if you can

Okay, if you've been having nightmares all week, than maybe your having a psychological problem of sorts. It seems that you're afraid of your loved ones becoming indifferent of you.

I'd try to analyze the dreams. Maybe talk about it with your mom, since she (in the dream) was a source of concern. Go to bed earlier? Get more sleep? Or go to bed later, I find if I do that, my dream recall sucks and I can't remember my dream. But you probanly don't wanna lose more sleep.

So, yeah... analyze and talk, and don't panic is all the advice I can give.

Ooooor you could take some benedryl (which is medicine for alergic reactions and colds)
That stuff makes you dead tired, and maybe you could then sleep undisturbed.

Or maybe it's actually something bodily related... one night, my mom dreamed that a rocket crashed to earth and caused a nuclear explosion, while in real life, her heart stopped. Okay, thats not comforting, but it could be a medical condition.

Wow... was that ever a long reply...

Say like, instead of doing something that will just result in tradgety. try to avoid it and go for the fun stuff like....being nice (helping someone out in their time of need). And no i'm not saying become superman!
For me, something i find intresting that will not result in tears, cuts, broken legs, a fractured skull, serious brain damage or death is proberbly a game of three dimensional naughts and crosses

this is because i find that when ever i do something completely stupid, the same thing happens in my dream. (may only work for some, not all. i'd have to check on that)

I would sugest that you take the time and ask yourself why you are having nightmares, try not to make up the answer just let it come to you. When your subconcious tells you the answer you can fix the problem. Or You could ask your subconcious to stop giving you nightmares.

Hmmm....

There is probably some pent up emotions there. Do someting which is a release, like watching a really sad or a really funny movie. Laughing and crying both help me get stuff out.

What else... I also have a dreamcatcher, which I feel helps me relax and not worry about having nightmares (even though I know it doesn't physically do anything. It's just comforting to have.

Because worrying about night mares won't help. I still reccommend laughter as it's also a major way to relax.

It reminds me of dreams I had after getting out of a bad relationship, one where I felt trapped. I dreamed that he came back and leaned against me, smothered me, and tried to touch me. It was always in a room with other people in, and they would never help me, no matter how much I screamed at them.

The dreams went on for a while, but over time I began to stand up for myself. In the last dream I totally beat him up, and took out all my frustrations.

Maybe you'll manage to do something simelar?

Thanks All =D ! I will try methods in due time =)

needless to say, i didn't want to ever wake up.

Thanks all, tried all techniques!

The best was the relaxing and laughing one, I atched a comedy the night before and not a hint of bad touch to the dream. Thanks!
