I told my boyfriend I felt anxious. It was late I needed to go to bed..i asked him to run my back he didn't cuz he said he was tired I just don't want to have bad dreams again. I wish he would have comforted me :( I wish he knew when I need comfort..:/ still afraid of bad dreams ;(

Try putting good and positive thoughts in your mind or write or draw your dreams out and try to get an idea what is triggering your bad dreams. Hope this helps.

I get periods where I have bad dreams every night and then eventually it stops. I don't know why they start or why they stop but I can't imagine that not sleeping will help. Without sleep you are more stressed and anxious and depressed and nothing is right. Try to get some sleep and eventually they will subside.
