nightmares of old relationship..

One other thing I forgot to mention is change your night time habits. Don't do anything the same way you do when you are having the nightmares. Not sure why this works but it does...sometimes.

Most of us have some kind of ritual we follow, just mix it up completely and see what happens, but definitely don't think about the nightmares before you go to sleep. Hope this helps some.

How are the nightmares? Did you have any this weekend? Have you given anymore thought to going to a therapist?

I don't know anything about your ex, but your sub conscience may be trying to warn you to be careful. I would take precautions to protect yourself especially if you live alone. Like call someone everyday at the same time (like your mom or best friend) if the call doesn't come that person will know to check on you just in case. This may make you feel safer & the dreams may stop.

Wow. That is fantastic advice!!!!! That is true that the nightmares might go away if you felt safer.

Yeah, well my ex is a psycho and has some real psychological issues. He's threatened to kill me, among various other threats and did a horrible thing to my mother in court. Sorry I wasn't trying to get into it but my point is, I'm sure my sub conscience is telling me to be careful. I mean, consciencely I am aware of dangers he poses to me. Maybe I'm just thinking about them too much. I haven't had a bad dream about him in a few days which is good, although he is making appearances in my dreams But I'll take that over something bad!
I live at home so I always check in with my mom , but we are all on our tippy toes around here incase he shows back up at the door.

I was thinking about this whole thing and one thing that I think about a lot (mostly maybe cause I have a gun phobia) is that what if he borrowed a gun from his friend (he's a fellon and can't purchase a gun) and came here and shot us all up!! That, I think is my biggest fear. It's kinda un-rational, but so is he.
Thanks ladies! you guys rock for listening to me blab!
