I’ve been having bad nightmares for the past week and a half. They’ve escalated from things just mildly uncomfortable to people killing me. Like the other night my therapist came up behind me and stabbed me in the chest and whispered “is this what you wanted?”. Needless to say I was confused. I’ve also had dreams I’ve been getting attacked and it escalating to rape (I was never raped in rl). Anyways I’ll wake up swinging, lunging and fighting. I actually lunged myself off the bed bc in the dream someone kicked my dog and I went ape shit and lunged at them, well apparently I did that in real life and ended on the floor. I used to have dreams when I was a teenager where I’d act them out but I blame that on my older brother who would kick the crap out of me so to wake up you had to be ready to fight.
Needless to say this has been a shitty 10 or so days and I don’t know how to get the nightmares to stop. I’ve tried taking melatonin, klonopin, magnesium to fall into a deeper sleep but nothing works. This stuff sucks.
