Dreams
Not sure where this goes... well I don't neccessarily have night mares per say, I just think about stuff that could happen to me during the night. I think about getting murdered and I actually imagine it to happen as I try to sleep. As creepy as this sounds, it freaks me out when I am lying in my bed. Nothing bad has happened in my town so I shouldn't have anything to worry about but theres always that possibility that something would happen. If you could give me some good tips or pointers on what to do when I think about dying and how I am going to die and what not, they would be greatly appreciated. Sometimes I don't get much sleep because I'm lying awake thinking about this stuff. Help me please... I don't know what else to do.

Well, whenever you try to stop thinking about something it's almost impossible. You have to have it on your mind to some extent in order to avoid thinking about it. In your situation, you don't necessarily have to stop what you're doing, just change it. When you start imagining someone coming in your room and killing you for example, imagine then, your crush coming in and saving you. That would turn something completely negative into something more positive. Hopefully thinking about your crush coming to save you would trigger more enjoyable fantasies that you can fall asleep thinking about and your mind won't be quite so filled with being killed. Good luck!

sometimes this happends to me.
i just tell myself if i keep my eyes closed nothing bad will happen.
"if i don't see it it's not there"
so i close my eyes and go under the covers and try to relax and breath it helps calm you down and fall asleep.

I am the same way. I always think of how scary it would be if that really happned. But what you should do is just think about how rediculous it is. If your getting the stuff from the movies, then quite watching those movies for a while. Watch movies that make you laugh. And most importantly try not to think bout it. Think about something else. If that dosent help, try going to a therapist.

that happens to me too and probably other people. the thought that you could be killed in the night. but like.. before you sleep, hopefully your christian/catholic pray to god and know that he'll always love you and is watching over you. also, check around the whole house, closing doors and locking front doors, back doors and such, so that you can have a reality check and be like "nobody can get in". try not to think about it as much. dont watch tv before you sleep.. the night has some scary commercials and other bad stuff that you dont need. ha like one time i watched "savin me" by nickelback, the video, in the night for the first time and i was soo scared and freaked out about the "numbers above their head" and the whole dying part that it was hard to sleep. read a good book that kinda takes you away from your life and stuff, and then remember to turn off the lights when you're too tired to continue! i do that when i cant sleep, and it helps. i havent really had a nightmare in ages. if you dont like reading.. well learn to. there are good books out there, no matter what you think you'll like one. even if it isnt all like.. schoolish and junk. like from "the clique" by lisi harrison to like.. "matilda" by roald dahl. pick something thats optimistic.. dont read scary stories and stuff like that in the night!!!! I hope your dreams are better!
Sincerely,
Dee

This happens to me too. It is usually because of the junk I watch on tv. When a thought like that comes to my mind, i just say the word "cancel" in a soft voice. It seriously works! After saying that, I automatically think of something else- like becoming famous, or getting high honors!
dont worry!
