Nightmares or Night Terrors? Reply to this message
Hi I'm 15 and have recently been having very odd dreams were they start out with your normal oddness but then I start dreaming that I'm in my bed and I maybe see someone just standing over me or I see something walk out my door (which i sleep closed with). These wake me up and I see nothing is there. Usually the "person" standing over me is your average dark silhouette figure but other nights it has been things along the lines of the girl from the ring etc. I'm not sure if these are night terrors or nightmares because these seem real, like I can hear them breathe or slam the door as they run out. I have even had a dream were I got shot in the head and woke up with the feeling of my head being heavily compressed.
I'm writing this at 11:30pm because I am scared to sleep because every night the dream goes on for longer and last night the silhouette almost grabbed me before I woke up, and after I wake up I feel that if i look away from the edge of the bed something will grab me.
So far I have found listening to Pink Floyd helps which I find weird given the fact that it is designed to make you trip out but it works every now and then.
If anybody can tell me if these are sleep terrors and maybe how to stop them I will be very grateful.
