Suggest Treatment For Bad Dreams
Hello. I'm 19 years old, and I've had a problem for the past few weeks. Every single night, I have had the same dream. In this dream my 1 year old son dies, and everyone keeps telling me that I'm responsible, and I wake up each night in tears. It sits over me all day, and it's pretty much all I can think about. I haven't spoken to my partner about it, as I fear he will probably just tell me to think about different things. Do you think you can help me? Emma

Hi dear.
I had gone through your query.
I understand your concern.
Dreams are normal and occured in deep sleep.
It has nothing with real life.
Sometimes constant thinking about it will lead to anxiety symptoms.
Usually it doesn't require treatment until it affect your daily routine .
It can be treated with mild anxiolytic.
Sleep remedies like benzodiazapine can also help to reduce it.
For detail evaluation you can consult psychiatrist.
Still if you have a query then feel free to ask.
Thank you.
