My mam tells me nearly every morning she had a nightmare?

Question

My mam has horrible nightmares nearly every night about people dying or people trying to hurt her. Why is this? Is there anything that we can do to make her have a peaceful nights sleep?

Answer 1

Yes. I hope this helps: I found that I have nightmares if I eat too close to bedtime. The worst dreams happen when I eat garlic or chocolate. Tell your mom to pay attention to what and when she eats. It could be something as small as changing her diet to let her sleep peacefully.

Answer 2

I suggest buying a "dream" book. I get weird dreams all the time which I can't explain, so I bought this book about dreams. Here it is on amazon:

It really helps me, so maybe it would help your mother.

Good luck

Answer 3

Some time is has to do with what they have been watching on TV that evening.  I have to be careful what I watch on TV or I have problems. It took me a while to figure it out. This may be part of her problem, she may need professional help with this. I can not say for sure. I am sorry for her problem and hope she gets some relief soon. Good Luck.

Answer 4

I REALLY DONT NO BUT TELL HER TO START WRITING THEM DOWN CAUSE SHE COULD WRITE A BOOK ABOUT THEM,,N PROB GET VERY RICH,,PEACE

Answer 5

Maybe in a previous life this was the age that she may have gone through a turmoil. If nothing seems to be coming of these dreams she needs to just light a candle and say her prayers before she goes to bed and try to relax. (Or however she prays). For real.

Answer 6

Your question is incomplete.

What about your father?

Whether your mother is alone.

If so, she is feeling lonely in his absence.

Please take her to a psychiatrist immediately and try whether

his counseling helps her?

Try to console her at times.

Be with her because she needs some one to take care and look after her.
