consistant nightmares..?

Batman / Jan 03 2010 20.21
Anyone got any tips... i keep shouting, screaming and crying in my sleep from my nightmares... i remember some but not the really bad ones in which my mum tries to console me but never succeeds, i keep scaring her.. if she tries to touch or move me i will fight back as i dont react well to being touched when im in a state. She's really tired and im feeling really guilty for doing this to her. Does anyone have any tips on what to do? My psychologist and psychiatrist know but theres not much they can do in all honesty. It drains me as well... i find it hard to sleep enough as it is getting probably 2/3 hours a day and its filled by nightmares. Anyone have similar or have any advice? xxxx

try to see a sleep therapist, they could maybe find out the cause of you sleep problems

I get nightmares too that people are after me, that people are laughing at me and trying to hurt me and stuff

i find it helps when i make myself feel calm before bed. What i do is turn off my main light and put a light on and then look round all my room in the cupboards and everyything lots of times so you can see nobody is near you and then you have a hot water bottle and get into bed and read a book for a bit to calm youself. I have some pillow spray and its relaxing and good for sleep so maybe you can get some too, its good... hope this helps
