Why do I only have bad dreams?

Question

I always only have nightmares, or bad dreams. The closest I come to having a good dream is one where I'm just really anxious in, and something is going wrong. I can't remember the last time I had a good dream.

When ever I have bad dreams, I wake up/wake my boyfriend up because I'm yelling or moaning and I'm very sweaty and I can't get back to sleep very easily. And they are so realistic a lot of the time. I've had dreams where my boyfriend or parents have died, and I'd wakeup and I'd really believe it, so I'd cry hysterically. Or a few nights ago I had a dream that my boyfriend cheated on me, and I woke up and he tried to hug me to go back to sleep but I was freaking out at him and crying.

I'm just wondering what anyone can tell me about this, if it helps, I worry a lot during the day and have had some panic attacks.

Answer 1

You have a lot of anxiety. The anxiety is expressing itself in your dreams.

You must face the source of the anxiety and deal with it.

It is obvious you have a lot of anxiety about your boyfriend and your parents. Perhaps you are dependent on them in some way.

Im very big on dreams so I hope I can help you, firstly, dont worrie, its very normal for dreams about death, that uaually just symbolises a major change in your life, for example I just had a dream lastnight that my dog died, when I woke up my boyfriend told me ive been crying for 20 miniutes lol, I also just got a new great job! So even though these dreams make you very sad it doesnt mean anything bad. And about the panic attacks, dont think about them because you can get one just by worrying about getting one..

Tonight and every other night, just before you fall asleep, I want you to think over and over of something pleasant in your life that you want to dream about, just my reading this im very confident that you will be having good dreams from now on, so you have nothing to worry about..

Trust me, and be happy :)

Answer 3

A nightmare is a dream which causes a strong unpleasant emotional response from the sleeper, typically fear or horror, being in situations of extreme danger, or the sensations of pain, falling, drowning or death. Such dreams can be related to physical causes such as a high fever, turned faced down on a pillow during sleep (most often in the case of drowning nightmares), or psychological ones such as psychological trauma or stress in the sleeper's life, or can have no apparent cause. If a person has experienced a psychologically traumatic situation in life, for example, a person who may have been captured and tortured the experience may come back to haunt them in their nightmares. Sleepers may waken in a state of distress and be unable to get back to sleep for some time. Eating before bed, which triggers an increase in the body's metabolism and brain activity, is another potential stimulus for nightmares. Sleeping on the left side of the body could compress the chest cavity and restricts the movement of the heart, and has been known to cause nightmares.
