So I have nightmares on a regular basis. Constantly. I've had problems with nightmares for years. Started when I was about 14. I am 18 now.
But, I notice sometimes, there are nightmares that are "loud." I don't know how else to describe them.
These nightmares are fewer images, like I'm in a dark place and I can hear noises and people talking.
Just weird stuff.
"Kill it."
"Keep it away from her."
"I'm not letting go."
"Run. Just go. They're coming."
Just weird stuff like that.
But also, as soon as I start actually seeing stuff, I jerk awake violently.
As soon as I go to sleep again, it starts over.
Voices and weird noises come again.
So, why do I do this? I am doing it more often than I used to be. This is much more exhausting because I jerk awake so much, and I think it's even upsetting my dog.
Sure. I may be under stress, but who isn't these days?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks and Merry Christmas.
