I've been having some haunting dreams about my past, I've been trying to figure out what they mean. But they've got me not being able to sleep anymore.. Any help would be appreciated
It's a little difficult saying much of anything without knowing what you're dreaming. It sounds like these dreams are really unpleasant since you aren't able to sleep. If it happened to me, I would tell myself that I have something important to learn from these dreams. I would remind myself that these dreams can't hurt me, but they can teach me.
From my experience (and my personal belief) with bad dreams is that something in your mind is unsettling. Maybe your extremely disatisfied with something in your past. Need closure, something unresolved, something like that. For me, it had to do with a depression I didn't know I had. Every person's circumstances are unique, and only you can decipher a solution which will work. I simply needed to build my courage, and take a more pro-active stance on life.
