I'm scared to go back to sleep?

[MariahMartin]

I had this dream before, and it was like i was dreaming but i was still awake. I knew I was dreaming and I was trying so hard to wake up. And I would half wake up and still have my eyes closed but be so sleepy I fall right back to sleep. I don't remember the dream but when I finally fully woke, I found myself sideways,Twisted in covers,and half-way off the bed. I also couldn't go to sleep again after this. I've had this several times before and it always scares me. I just woke in the middle of the night now after having a dream were i felt like someone was bad and had this dread feeling about them and so I tried to pray to God but in the middle of the prayer I woke up. and I had heavy breathing when I woke to. and ever since I was baby if I had a nightmare and I woke up. Then went back to sleep the nightmare would continue where it left off. So now I'm SUPER tired but I'm way to scared to go back to sleep. Feel free to help explain whats going on by putting out your dreams to. Thank you.

This used to happen to me, I would find myself like this, your thoughts and what you see during the day is interpreted by your dreams, try and think of something happy and think of a good dream and it pushing away the bad one, watch some tv or your favorite movie, and hopefully you will fall asleep doing so, if this continues, tell a counselor or your doctor at your next visit
