    Im too scared to go to sleep.

    My dreamcatcher is broken. Not literally but it hasn't been working for a couple weeks.

    I keep having dreams about killing people. Is there anyway to like not dream or something?

    i have those type of dreams all the time. i have had them for about 25 years. i get sick and tired of them and wish they would stop, and yet i know their good for me! my mind is working things out while i sleep. if you do not dream you will go mad and then die. those dreams will not hurt you. what ever your mind is trying to workout let it do it's job.

    i know this sounds strange, but it was advice i got once. I kept having bad dreams, and could not sleep without waking up and screaming. one of my best friends told me that you have to break the pattern and it will stop....wake yourself up in the middle of the night.
    I had no idea how to do this, because alarms don't wake me up, so i asked her. She told me to put my hand in warm water so i would pee, and wake up.
    I thought it was absolutely gross and wouldn't do it....
    well...we had a sleep over and she did it for me.


    it actually worked.

    Not dreaming will not cure the problem - that you have unconscious hate towards others. It could as simple as a boss who rides you too hard at work. Your not dreaming is not going to make the boss from always being on your ass.

    To make dreams go away, find peace within yourself. Once you no longer have anything to fear in real life, you'll find that your life becomes real boring (probably). Boring is good. But not many people can deal with it.
