Nightmares… why now?

Question:

Hi Kathy; I understand and may be able to help. E-Mail me. Take care of yourself and have a Wonderful Day. Regards, Ian

Response:

Kathy:  I too have major nightmare cycles…  they will last anywhere from a couple of days to weeks on end, every night, all night…i also dont remember that much of them, just the feeling of the horror.  they have subsided, but when i was young in my recovery they did torment me a lot.  this is no help i know, but this is part of the process for some of us… we hate it, but it tells us something about where we are… mine almost always share the theme of   "somebody/thing trying to get/hurt/kill me"  i think that is because until not so long ago i felt i was helpless to protect myself… maybe something similar is going on for you. i am so sorry you are going through this.  i cannot say "embrace the pain and use it to grow" cause that sounds like a bunch of crap…. but it almost is sort of what you have to go through… i know you will survive…  i feel your strength in your posts, even tho you may not. If you can judge a wise man by the color of his skin,  then mister you
