So I have been having the worst nightmares lately. Its getting harder and harder for me to sleep for more than five hours. I was hoping someone could help me out with this issue. My first dream had to do with me living next to a guy that was a murderer who took me and tourcherd me by tieing me to a bed and getting me addicted to a drug, then making me go through withdrawl. Then he made me sew a loop disign into my left arm. It was wrong the first time so he ripped them out and made me do it again. The next one was me trying to save my little sister and getting stabbed in my right shoulder. The last one had to do with me being set loose into the woods durning a snow storm and being hunted. I need help.
i dream stuff like hunts also, im running around during a war, i have like 3 diff assault rifles on my shoulder, and i cant find bullets anywhere, ppl r shooting at me and i end up throwing shit off the floor at the. only once did i dream and actually have bullets, i shot a man and his 17 year old kid, it was sick because i know them and theyre complete jerks. i felt very brave and untouchable at the time, i was very tall and handsome, had long leather coat and dark clothes (i just saw someone of it in first person, some of it in 3rd) so yea, the other brother punches me unexpectadly in the ribs, i wake up with a loud painfull sigh, and writhe for a sec untill i realise it was a dream. that dream hit hurt as fuck. maybe you have been watching too many horror movies or something? i know i game and watch too many action films, so that causes my violent dreams. but torture, thats prettu messed, maybe if its reocurring try like meditating and going to sleep on a empty head (likeshut down, not thinking about anything but say the lovely breakfast u will have when u wake up). hope i helped, but good luck =)
I feel like for the most part, my nightmares are caused by different anxieties. In hindsight, most unpleasant dreams i've had were direct results of putting something off. This might only apply to certain personality types, who knows.
Maybe you're feeling like you don't have much control over the situation you are in, or you are afraid that you won't have control in the future. Maybe you're afraid that you won't be able to take care of yourself or protect yourself, or maybe you feel like you're being controlled or manipulated by other people. It could be something as harmless as sucking it up and doing something you don't want to do like visit an old relative or friend that you secretly don't like. Or it could be something bigger, like unhappiness in the workplace or in a relationship?
