Why do i keep thinking and dreaming of bad things?

Question

Is it my depression doing this, or am i twisted?

i keep having dreams where my friends die. and in the last one i got a sense of it being my fault. :(

and i often have horrible thoughts. Most of them are suicide-related, which i can understand as i have a lot of suicidal thoughts. for example, when i'm on the bus, i imagine a car or lorry crashing into the side of the bus and crushing me.

but i also have horrible thoughts which involve other people. Like i imagine there being a gunman running riot in town, killing everyone, i imagine terrorist attack, i imagine there being a raging fire in a building and everyone screaming as they burn to death.

:(

why do i have these thoughts?

Answer 1

your not the only one keeps dreaming bad things.. i too.. i dreamed of tornadoes and exactly those days were the days that ive been feeling so so so confused.. it just reflect in my mind,

Answer 2

it comes with the depression, you have a lot of negativity on your mind i know coz i am there too, you just need to stop these thoughts and start to think positively and then your positive thoughts will help you have good dreams

Answer 3

Along with depression comes low self-esteem. Practicing positive thinking is a must either on your own or seek professional help.

Answer 4

Sometimes in dreams they show you a mirror of how you are yourself, to bring this to your attention. This would give you the opportunity to change.

You believe that your thoughts are "happening" to you and you have no control over them - but this is not true. You can choose what thoughts you have - when you have a negative thought, immediately change it to a positive or happy thought. Do not allow negative thoughts to stay there.

Slowly but surely, your brain will understand that you want to change the way you think, and you will then start having positive thoughts all the time. You have the control to change it.

Hi friend,

        All your thoughts and dreams depend on what you think and what you think for most of the time. For example as you said when you are in a bus, u think that a car or lorry might come and hit u and crush u up. These all show that you have a lot of negative thoughts running all over your mind.. So try to avoid them. Try to visit a Psychiatrist who can help you out on getting out all the negative thoughts and can help you out in this issue.. Am sure that he will cure your problem and from then you can have a sound sleep...

Its not due to depression but because you have more of negative thinking....
