I've been struggling with anxiety for almost 7 years now, but this is something fairly new. Over the past few months, every time I go to bed, I wake up pretty much every hour, on the hour, to a multitude of very realistic, complex nightmares. Now, they are not night terrors, nor is it sleep paralysis. They are nightmares about my real life. It's almost as if I'm living a normal life through my dreams but they're slightly twisted in a way that's nightmarish. I have dreams about work, my love life, my parents, my friends, usually being the topic of sickness/death. I can't stay asleep at night for the life of me which leaves me completely drained in the mornings for work. Anybody else have something like this? And what did you do to possibly combat it? I'm male, 25 years old. Fairly healthy.
