>had sleep issues for the longest were i never got any deep REM sleep>get put on meds for sleep and actually start dreaming but at the cost of the most vivid and distressing nightmares>prescribed a something thats given to people with PTSD to manage nightmaresso is this it? theres nothing i can do stop the nightmares myself? maybe years of horror media is catching up because nothing in my life has happened to give me PTSD that i can think of.
>>34540835Nightmares are the result of your thoughts during the day. Meditate and put your fears to rest while you're awake, and you won't be troubled in your sleep. That'll also make it easier to sleep in the first place, since most sleep issues are really just anxiety, and you can probably stop taking drugs altogether if you're successful.
>>had sleep issues for the longest were i never got any deep REM sleepsame, except i dont get any meds for my sleep, dont dream and dont rest at all. how did you know i cant work and cant take part in society? im attempting to get a spot at a sleep clinic.may i ask what condition you have OP and what meds you get for better sleep?>nightmareswhat kind of nightmares OP? entities making grimaces for example are clearly low level run of the mill demons/jesters and appear if one has lived a life in sin(s).most evil entities can be dispersed via invocation of Jesus / Christ but doing that every time can get tedious fast.for sound sleep, read Psalm 4 or 16 before bedto make the voices stop, Psalm 23and 4 you start lamenting....it doesnt matter if you arent Christian, Psalm Magic is for everyone.>in my life genetic memories exist. maybe not you but you from earlier in history. people get what they deserve, curses do exist.but we dont want to assume the worst.are you lucid dreaming or just a bystander, observer without agency in these dreams? how vivid are they? have you tried to wake up inside the dream?>>34540840most normie npc take sheesh.
>>34540840makes sense considering ive suffered from sever anxiety since my teens (26) around the time when i first started having sleep problem. the problem is that most of the time i drift off to sleep im nol anxious at all and its like my brain digs up shit to be anxious about while sleeping.>>34541498>may i ask what condition you have OP and what meds you get for better sleep?i dont even know if i have a sleep condition because my insurance wont pay for a sleep study, nor am i forking over $400+ out of pocket. ive tried a bunch of different on and offlable meds for sleep but the 2 that worked best for me was ambien and prazosin. ambien knocked me the fuck out but after a week i started waking up at 3am and the week after that it stopped working for me, prazosin is a blood pressure med thats used to treat PTSD nightmares in soldiers, and while it doesnt make me sleepy it tones down the dreams and helps me stay asleep for the most part.>what kind of nightmares OP?sometimes theyre vague distressing dreams where i cant remember anything about them when i wake up other than being scared. sometimes its involves me being killed or violence. sometimes their as simple as me being back in high school and being forced to repeat a grade. one i had last night that inspired this thread was about some serial killer who i couldnt even describe taking body parts to his basement where something worm-like would grow out of them. like i said ive never seen anyone die horribly, i dont seek out gore, and i havent been into hyperviolent media like horror movies for a long time so i dont know why theyre like this. >are you lucid dreamingi dont know if id call it lucid dreaming but sometimes i become aware that i am dreaming and im able to wake myself up.
>>34541552>i dont even know if i have a sleep condition because my insurance wont pay for a sleep study, nor am i forking over $400+ out of pockegrim. so you have no idea and are poking in the mist around gambling with random >ambien and prazosinmedssad. and here i had hopes we could help each other.at least ive done the sleep study and am diagnosed.for example i know how to make the dreams even more vivid and lucid but not how to tone it down. (because i dont dream because no rem)have you tried to detox from artificial lights for at least 2 weeks? no pc monitors, no phone monitors, no electrical fire lights (LEDs) keeping sleep hygene aka no sport/stress/coffee at least 4 hours before bed>worm-like would grow out of themhow very interesting. u vaxed per chance?did you smell sulfur in any dream?
>>34540835Don't eat after 6pm. Nothing. No snacks.Don't drink anything with caffeine in it.Don't watch videos or play games late at night. Keep the place dark.Normal human sleep is biphasic, it's normal to wake up at about 2-3am and then go back to sleep, they used to call it first and second sleep. Electric lights fucked that up.
