I used to have horrible nightmares every single night. I don't have them as much anymore, but its probably due to the medication im on. Sometimes watching a happy movie before sleeping, or playing music can help your sleep, because you're going to sleep in a good mood. although, i can't promise that it'll work. I'm here for you, alright?

YES, I have had nightmares every night since i was a kid. Some are super intense and horrifying, others more just creepy or unsettling.

Yes for sure, I had nightmares for years and then it got better, but lately it’s been happening again because I returned to a triggering environment. I take note of my surroundings (people, places, etc.) that could be contributing to it. But at the beginning there wasn’t necessarily a trigger. I journaled in the aftermath to cope, because my thoughts were better off on a piece of paper than in my head. This also helped me stay proactive instead of spiraling in my head during a panic attack. I was also taught to use my senses (sensory activation), like smelling lavender oil or feeling a cold crystal or taking a hot shower, because it brings you back to the present, and to remind myself “I am safe in this moment. The memory/dream might be real, but it’s not happening to me right now. I am safe.” I hope this helps ❤️

That’s why I take prazosin when given at a low dose it helps with nightmares

Yes, I developed mine shortly after my major trauma and they still take place yet at least it’s not like how they were which was almost every night for over a year; basically, I had to move out of my apartment building and into another state. Taking lorazepam did help me yet I still had them. I used to wake up in bed screening get off me (etc)and punch out or kick my legs in the air like a bucking bronco. Or if wake up by rehearing a similar noise of that event. It was bad. I also had major panic attacks during the daytime because of that event

I have them pretty often. I'd try journaling your day before going to bed. It may help ease some of the stress youvehad through the day and make the nightmares a little less potent.

I started having nightmares at about 15. They would lead to an episode of sleep paralysis and happened back to back, 5-7 nights a week. I’ve lost a lot of valuable sleep over the last 7 years. I’ve learned to live with it, and the insomnia it’s caused, but a recent addition of medication has helped me sleep peacefully for once.

I used to have nightmares every night, I still have them but they are not as frequent. I would suggest talking to your doctor about medication. But at night before you go to bed watch something comforting for me it is ASMR videos and sleep with a stuffy it may seem childish but they held the nightmares
