I've been having such awful dreams lately. Ranging from past traumas to using & everything in between. I wake up feeling so uncomfortable in my own skin. I just try to remember to pray before bed as well as when I wake up feeling so off.
Using dreams and past trauma tend to surface when your mind is finally quiet enough to start healing. Can I ask how long you’ve been sober? It helps to know because these dreams can be part of the brain detoxing or unprocessed stuff coming up to be released. You’re not doing anything wrong, your recovery is working, even when youre sleeping. Youre body is healing. It would be good to see someone about trauma to learn how to process it. Maybe try Betterhelp, it’s a service Loosid has in the marketplace. Let me know if there’s anything I can help you with, k. Keep pushing through
You are not alone. My brain has been doing this also. It's awful. I've been trying to remember that dreams are just that. I always put it on my gratitude list that I'm grateful it was only a dream. It helps to ease the panic I wake up with, doesn't eliminate it but definitely eases it. Sending you all the good vibes
