I had a scary dream the other day and I do not want to explain but I have been in a bad state for 3 days now. I am so afraid this dream means something bad is about to happen to me and now I just can't stop worrying. I'm having panic attacks and shaking with fear most of the times. I don't know what to do I'm afraid. Last year I had a bad panic attack thinking about death and then for 30 days I was in a complete state you could not believe, I was convinced I was gonna die. Now I'm afraid of my own dreams now. When I seek reassurance from people they scare me more.

I've had this too.YOU are in control of the dreams, and your thoughts too. Shaking with fear is common in what we're experiencing.
Have you seen your GP?
I know how things can play on your mind but half the time it's ourselves making mountains out of mole hills, I have terrible pains in my head and am convinced I have a brain tumour and have had MRI scan and all is clear but still think have they missed something because having been reassured still got the pain.

I feel for you so much. I too have suffered from scary dreams and I have been comforted to know they are just a symptom of anxiety and just your body' s natural way of releasing stress. Perhaps you.ve had a particularly anxious time recently or in the past, and bad dreams are just your mind at rest making pictures of feelings,:trying to sort them out. You might also, like me, have a vivid imagination! Don't take them too seriously, Do peaceful things before you sleep, give yourself comfort, eat sweet things, have a warm bath. Don't drink or take drugs-they'll make your dreams worse. Be good to yourself especially if you're anxious. Take care xx
