Been having night terrors again. Extremely vivid and terrifying night terrors. I'm even taking sleeping medication to help with them and they were working until a few nights ago. I get 0 rest now when sleeping and it happens every time. I'm sick of this so much.
 
I think having read several posts over the last week or two - you are simply overwhelmed and need a strategy for dealing with overall anxiety and stress.

What does your T suggest you try?

Mine have become quite terrible again too. It’s very frustrating. I’ve been keeping myself up for days now with little naps in the daytime. My T says I do this because my body is afraid of my own mind. It equates sleeping with danger (nightmares) and keeps me up for days to avoid it. I woke up 2 nights ago in sheer panic over a vivid dream. I hope you find some relief soon!
