unable to sleep, horrid nightmares...?

Question

For the past month now I have had a major problem... My sleeping has become erratic. I can't sleep for several days at a time, and when I do become exhausted enough to sleep I don't want to because when I do I have hellish nightmare's... they consist mainly of apocalyptic death, to war and terror, to demon's, blood, and gore, to maybe simply abandonment... They aren't bearable either... I feel every bit of pain I endure in the dreams, while I imagine the pain I feel of getting sliced open and mutilated in a dream is not as intense as it would be in real life, it still hurts and my body will manifest bruises on itself because of it. So as you can imagine this has impacted my ability and desire to rest. pretty much the only time I do sleep is when I pass out after 3 to 5 days, and when I do I fall asleep for around 2 days of hell. I've had these dreams before, but they never lasted this long, I never felt the pain before, and they never affected my desire to sleep because I simply had gotten used to them. I think this has all been triggered by recent events where without going into too much detail, a woman who was obsessed with me decided to turn everyone in my life against me so that she would be the only person talking to me. I have had a neglect and abuse filled life and this experience resurfaced many abandonment issues I have... throughout my life things became so hard for me I decided to shut off my emotion and repress it because it hurt so much, and for the past year I've slowly have been gaining it back, and this whole situation has brought everything from my past up again.

To get to the point, I can't sleep, I have horrid Nightmares, I have lost my appetite to some degree, I've sunken into a depression, and My emotional pain has risen to physical pain levels. Has anyone ever felt like this or been in this situation, and if you have, how do I get out of it, or are you still in it, and how do you cope?

Answer 1

I'm gnostic Christian and it sounds like your going to the levels of the underworld to me. Sometimes I have the same problem (only not as bad) and I pray to my spirit guide and mother god and surround myself in the white light of the holy spirit. It works for me if I put all of my energy into it. As for your real life: I have never dealt with anything like that before but if I did I would pray to my spirit guide, both god and mother god, and every day surround myself in the white light of the holy spirit and if someone is being really negative imagine them surrounded in mirrors where everything negative just reflects back at them. Sorry if I freak anyone out with my beliefs, this is just what I would do, and I'm not trying to shove my religion onto anyone. If you have any questions you can message me though because it might be confusing

I've had this hindrance off and on for approximately 7 years, so I sympathize. I've come to observe that there are 2 choices: attempt to establish the reasons and triggers of the nightmares and get rid of the triggers, or simply receive the nightmares. Some folks knowledge approximately nightmares is that they are able to be exacerbated via consuming too overdue at night time, consuming meals that's too highly spiced at night time, going to mattress and waking on and abnormal agenda, or looking plenty of violent films and studying violent books. You must examine those as viable resources. If you uncover that your nightmares persist even with your agenda, vitamin, and leisure, you are now not by myself. I have had a few good fortune via finding out a few "lucid dreaming" procedures, in which you drive your self to end up conscious that you're dreaming at the same time you're dreaming, and thereby manage the results of the dream. I'm now not very well at this almost always, and I often clear up my nightmare via killing any one else alternatively of being killed, so it is nonetheless well-nigh a nightmare. Also, I do not get very deep sleep while I lucid dream, so perhaps I'm now not doing it proper. One strategy to simply take care of them is to list them, or use them as thought for artworks. I write quick studies out of mine. Anyway, I've heard that this style of factor is going in cycles, so in a couple of years you'll return to traditional desires, after which perhaps down the street you'll have a nightmare interval once more. Good success.
