yeh well i dont know the answer but i can suggest a few things to help you sleep. Try not to have caffiene afetr about 5pm, becasue it keeps you awake...same goes with coke and chocolate. If you cant sleep, have a glass of warm milk, it has sedating properties in it. Also, avoid foods high in sugar before bed, because it will keep your metabolism active and you will have insomnia. Best of luck

I too frequently have very bad dreams. I know how it leaves you feeling disturbed for the rest of the day. I was told that my nightmares could be due to stress or could be down to hormones.I am a person who thinks too much - I worry inwardly not outwardly about just about everything, so perhaps this is reflected in my sleep.Maybe you are the same? I try to read a book before going to sleep and it rests my mind from the worries of the day. Good Luck.

There could be two different problems going on here. One could be that something is bothering you here and you need some peace of mind about it before you can truly totally relax. Have you tried maybe some aromatherapy before you go to bed or near your bed? Lavendar is excellent to promote a healthy, restful sleep. Also, before you go to bed, a few hours before, quit drinking anything with caffeine and sugar in it. Before bed, drink a glass of milk ( warm if you like it that way. The triptofan-phan? in it will really help you to relax and get to sleep easier_) and maybe take a warm bath or shower. I love crawling into bed after I dry off from a hot shower... yummy!!\n\nHave you ever thought about praying before you go to bed? I know, I know.. you're thinking I"m a zealot. But seriously, if you have something bothering you , you can ask for help. Ask for guidance in decision making, thank  ( diety of choice here) for all  the blessings you have in your life, forgiveness for any indescretions you may have committed... etc... This can really clear the mind for easier sleep.\n\nOk, the OTHER option I wanted to bring up is Sleep apnea. Its a sleep disorder that can easily be diagnosed. IF you have a problem with snoring, waking up alot and never feeling rested, you might have apnea. I do, and I used to have bizzaro dreams like you spoke of.  I got tested and I sleep with a little machine at night that helps me breathe now at night and I feel sooo much better!!  Just ask your boyfriend to watch your sleeep  patterns one night and to make notes. Look up the symptoms online. You never know, your problems might just be something this simple. \n\nWhatever it is, I really do hopeyou get some good sleep soon and cut back on those dreams!! \n\nsweet dreams....

I find it is lack of sleep or stress.  Maybe both.  It can take a long time to get rid of them or reduce them.  More often than not, one good night sleep does not make up for a week of late nights

You haven't used up your energy for the day, therefore you aren't tired.  If you go and work hard, you have no energy left, so it's really easy to fall asleep.\n\nHow did this get a thumbs down?

yes...worrying too much is where you actually lose sleep or cannot concentrate on other things due to worrying about whatever....it can be a serious illness that leads to treatment! A little worrying is normal though...especially if you are under deep stress...I worry more when I am stressing.

I didn't used to be like that, but lately I have been having a similar experience.  I think, for me at least, its because my life is going through a lot of changes, and I'm experiencing a lot of stress due to that.  I think its my mind's way of playing out my fears, since they are constantly on my mind.  I would suggest you try a cup of chamomille tea before you go to bed; it works wonders for me.

You may not be getting enough sleep.  It's a common misconception that everyone needs 8 hours.  Some people need more and some need less.  Try going to bed earlier.

Maybe you're tired or on medication that is affecting you. Some medications can give paranoia, and being tired sure can, too! :-)

Do you wake up at some point (or many) feeling anxious or nervous?  Your stress could be causing you to not sleep as well and this change in your life combined could definately make you a little more on edge.  I think this will resolve itself shortly.  I would definately let your boyfriend know exactly how you feel so he can give you a bit of leeway for now and not have hurt feelings.

The excitement, the joy and the adrenaline of recent circumstances. Take a DEEP breath slowly and let out slowly. Close your eyes and relax. If you can find someone who gives massages then that SO relaxing it makes a person sleepy-\nOH wait-I GIVE MASSAGES!\nYour tired for that reason of your experiences lately. You cant sleep for the fact that the life of what you've experienced still courses through your veins and soul long after your brain says "bedtime!".\nMaybe hot milk, but hot Irish milk's good!\nBesides-its 1am when you sent asked this i reckon-i only go to bed about 1 so its not that abnormal, maybe i infected you with my Irish sleeping pattern!!

You may not be getting enough sleep.\n\nYou should consult your doctor, as there could be any number of conditions which cause the symptom you experience.  It would be near impossible to make an accurate diagnosis without knowing a little more about your lifestyle- how much sleep you get, what you eat, how active you are, your past medical history, any drug use, etc.\n\nAgain, your doctor is most qualified to determine what you have and the best course of treatment.
