I constantly get woken up by horrible nightmares which is definitely influenced by my OCD. I hate it ;^;
@Vilkas something similar happened to me. i would get nightmares back to back. I started to get scared to go to sleep just because i didn’t want to have nightmares. i’m sorry you’re experiencing this.

@Chibikyu yes i would like to know what helped you. thanks for replying
@Chibiterasu thank you so much for the tips I will be trying them and I definitely struggle with not using my phone before sleep. 🥲 I did started doing cardio or yoga at times because I wake up so stiff sometimes. Thank you again
This has been happening to me the past week. I used to love sleeping, now I dread it. Hoping it gets better soon
i know what helps me at times is facing my fears. like with nightmares I was so scared to sleep so i did it anyway even though I was scared if i was going to get nightmares again or not. Sometimes since i struggle with insomnia I just tell myself I just need to rest and i might sleep or not but I still need rest and i end up falling asleep. I struggle most with rocd but that’s much more complex. I hope you know you’re not alone. 🫶
Imagine I used to be afraid from going to sleep,that was stupid hhhh but at that time it was scary I think I will die . Focus on breathing and I talk my self if I die I don't care.
