Answer 1

maybe you should go for a long bath befor you go to bed so you feel relaxed. or just hug a teddy and just sing a happy song that will help you get to sleep and hope fully won't make you have bad dreams.

every one has bad dreams but you will never get hurt in them mayb by feelings but nothing else.

Answer 2

I would try talking to friends about it, see if it helps doing that any, or mabye going to see a doctor and possibly getting put on medication, you could have anxiety related insomnia if your scared to go to sleep

Check out some of these websites:

Answer 10

Sleep with a light on, if it gets annoying then maybe invest in buying a smaller light or one that changes light intensity. Distract yourself by reading so that you are to tired to think of these fears, also try deep breatheing and postive thinking. Remind yourself that nothing bad is going to happen in your sleep for example: i will wake up in the morning feeling fine, and i will have a peacefull sleep. Im not going to die. Repeat it and you will surely feel more relaxed. This takes time however

Hope this helped..
