Old mum's cure for nightmares.

Can't speak for the psychology of some unresolved conflict you have with your family, but below is a tried and true get back to sleep cure:

1. Take note of which side you were sleeping on when you wake from the nightmare.

2. Use the loo, empty bladder, splash some water on your face if you wish. (helps you sleep more deeply)

3. Drink a few ounces of water. (changes your biochemistry)

4. Lie back down to fall asleep on the opposite side you woke up on. (gravity will pool the blood to a different part of your brain causing different dreams)

Weird personal note: I find I have mundane and problem solving or creative dreams sleeping on my left side. I have romantic, sexual, emotional dreams and nightmares on my right side.

Other extras would be to read a few Psalms, meditate, pray, and such to relax, find peace. 1-4 has biological reasons for changing your dreams :)

Good luck!

You control your nightmares you just have to, keep telling yourself that before you sleep. Nightmare really have no reason except the world around you is in conflict and works into your dreams. There is nothing real about them, it is manifestations of fears that make itself into nightmare, like a movie you mind wrote. You control everything in the dream if you can tell yourself that, believe it! It is true, it is yours and you can direct it and take the pillow from the dads hand and tell him he is having a nightmare, then guide him to lay down and sleep. If someone is attacking you, make a weapon appear, any you need. It is the truth you and only you control these, you can feel much better when you are able to get control of your nightmares.

Tell you something else, by doing this you also are more free in your waking hours, you have got more confidence!
