Nightmares

Ever since my mom told me about the separation ( working on over a month now) I've been plagued with nightmares. Last night, was horrible...a triple feature. I don't remember details, but that I was running from yet another killer.

I'm to the point that I'm afraid to close my eyes, afraid to fall asleep. What if I won't wake up? What if it becomes real some how? I know that sounds crazy, maybe it's the sleep deprivation, who knows?!

All I know is that this happened to me before and I went through my regular sleep cycle patterns, (fitful sleeps and night after night of nightmares)until one day the nightmares stopped. I don't think I want to go through that again:/

*sigh*

Mom just called...Dad gave her divorce papers...she's filling them out now.

  1. Anna, I know this is a terrible, terrible situation. But I don't want you to make yourself sick over this. :( And I know John doesn't either.

    I would suggest doing relaxation techniques before you get in bed, like slow breathing, gentle stretches, etc., and praying out loud before getting into bed asking God for a peaceful night's sleep. Then believe that He will give it to you.

    I don't know if that will work, but it's worth a try, and I will be sure to pray for you every night before I go to bed as well. Hopefully this will get better soon. :(
