I feel pain from dreams

11 Comments

Awhile ago as usual I had the Dream agian. It started out normal I didn't even know it was a dream until she knocked on my door and I stupidly opened it. Of course it lead to the usual torture she didn't say much other then grinning at me while I screamed. I didn't beg this time but the pain was a lot worse what I mean is that when I woke up my body was sore mainly in the areas that she tortured me at. I take meds and such but the dreams keep getting worse I'm even starting to see her when I'm awake. I don't feel safe when I go outside and I feel like I'm always being followed when I look out the corner of the eyes I slightly see her. Dose anyone else feel pain from dreams? It wasn't always a thing by the way.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    Feeling like its real is the essence of dreaming
    You feel everything very much like in real life even the pain untill you wake up
    Feeling tired is understandable but experiencing pain in the same exact spot is spooky

      It's not spooky, it's normal! OP is probably feeling physical pain for some quite ordinary reason and his/her mind is creating a dream to explain it: surely you've had that experience? It's like people dreaming there's a fire and then waking up to hear fire engines going past: very common and normal and ordinary.

      I once dreamt someone mysterious in spirit form comforted me in my sleep by putting gentle hands on my shoulders and telling me everything was going to be all right; I woke up to find one of my cats with her paws on my shoulders!

        That's so cool! I had a cat that could sense emotions and would jump in the lap of the person and meow as if asking "what's wrong".

          I don't know if he did it because he sensed my emotions but certainly my dog does and it drives me nuts. If I'm stressed she gets stressed and I get more stressed! The worst thing is when she starts barking loudly in my very small car while I'm driving and I now keep a water pistol handy to shut her up because it's so distracting.

    You are either trolling or hallucinating: if the latter, you need to get professional help urgently

      I'm doing theapy sand I have spoken about it to my therapist. I'm taking medication and yet it dosent help at best I have gaps were my dreams aren't as bad but I still see her. I know none of it is real and that I am hallucinating but being sore is something new.

        Depending on how long you've been on the medication (some takes a while to kick in) maybe that's not the right medication for you? Discuss this with your therapist.

      REM stands for RAPID EYE MOVEMENT and is a normal stage of sleep, not the same thing as rem-behavior disorder!

        Treatment
        Treatment for REM sleep behavior disorder may include physical safeguards and medications.

        Physical safeguards

        Your doctor may recommend that you make changes in your sleep environment to make it safer for you and your bed partner, including:
        Padding the floor near the bed
        Removing dangerous objects from the bedroom, such as sharp items and weapons
        Placing barriers on the side of the bed
        Moving furniture and clutter away from the bed
        Protecting bedroom windows
        Possibly sleeping in a separate bed or room from your bed partner until symptoms are controlled Medications.
        Examples of treatment options for REM sleep behavior disorder include:
        Melatonin. Your doctor may prescribe a dietary supplement called melatonin, which may help reduce or eliminate your symptoms. Melatonin may be as effective as clonazepam and is usually well-tolerated with few side effects.
        Clonazepam (Klonopin). This prescription medication, often used to treat anxiety, is also the traditional choice for treating REM sleep behavior disorder, appearing to effectively reduce symptoms. Clonazepam may cause side effects such as daytime sleepiness, decreased balance and worsening of sleep apnea.
        Doctors continue to study several other medications that may treat REM sleep behavior disorder. Talk with your doctor to determine the most appropriate treatment option for you.
