Nightmares for the past year now...

I started CPAP therapy a year or so ago and I have all kinds of nightmares now about work and my parents. I often cry in my sleep so loud I wake myself up or my body gets so stressed out from the dream it wakes me up. I have nightmares of losing my job and having no way to get another job or any help.

I mostly have nightmares of my parents leaving me places and driving away without me. Abandoning me on the side of the road or in a store or at someone's home. I'm always a little girl in these dreams and running after the car and crying. My parents disowned me twice in my life and wanted/tried to get rid of me a couple times.

They fought one night about putting me up for adoption when I was little. My mother tried to pawn me off on a family friend. I was sent there to live. It lasted 3 days and her friend made her take me back cuz her sons were getting made fun of so badly for my being there. It makes me exhausted the next day.
