Can’t Sleep

I can’t sleep at all and when I do it have really bad dreams. I seem to always be tired and wore out. I am scared to sleep because of the nightmares. I have not had a good nights sleep in about a month. It is really hard on me and I have no clue what to do.

I’m sorry Mattison :( is there something that caused you to have a lot of anxiety recently which then caused the sleep problem? Or were you afraid to sleep to begin with? Have you always had night terrors? This happened to me in the last month as well and I’ve been SLOWLY able to sleep more/deeper. And the night terrors have slowed, but I’m right there with you- it’s a vicious cycle. I’m going to say a prayer for you right now because not getting sleep is so debilitating and frustrating

Will you pray for me too? I don't sleep good because i have bad thoughts. Please pray the bad thoughts will go away.

I feel your pain mattison :( I’m going to keep praying for you. If something is making you anxious you should try to address that because it could be causing the bad sleep! Also, cut out any foods that interfere with sleep and keep on a schedule. No naps and such!
