My Bad Dreams

[khruelle]

---

Can anybody please help me figure out what is happening to me?

Let me start off by mentioning that I am Catholic and I believe and love God with all my heart.
I am living with my family... my mother, my father and 3 sisters. And I can say that I came from a really religious family. And I used to be very active in church. But when I went to college I became less active, to missing Sunday masses, to the point of not hearing masses at all (even Christmas or New years). Despite this I've kept God in my heart and mind.
This problem of mine started few years back, around 3 or 4 years ago. When I started having really bad dreams. I would always wake up in the middle of the night (that's everyday) from a nightmare, and weird that it's consistently at around 3am or 2:45am or close to that , almost catching my breath. Sometimes I would wake up having tears in my eyes. Then i can no longer go back to sleep. There are times that I could clearly remember my dreams, but these dreams would often seem to be just one of those meaningless usual nightmares we have. So I would just ignore it. But there are times that I would wake up and I could remember nothing. And those are usually the times when I would wake up in tears.
This went on for almost a year before I told my mom about it. I only did when my dreams got worse. It became morbid than ever. Plus when I woke up at around 3am I sometimes hear voices outside my room... A voice of a woman and a man... I could clearly hear them... they are whispers... but I am certain that i could hear them. It's just right outside my window. I could hear their loud whispers but I can't understand what they are saying. There language seems so foreign to my ears.They seem to be talking about a very serious matter. I wanted to see who are these "people" so I peeked at my window. I looked down at them through my half closed panes. But I saw no one...
Not really being a "scared cat" I just went back to bed and hid under the covers. But I wasn't able to go back to sleep anymore. Those voices kept me awake the whole night for a few days. I was just able to go back to sleep as soon as the whispers faded.
My mom advised me to go to confession . I did. I went back to church and regularly attended mass and praye every night. But when I got work, i lost time.
History repeated itself. I missed Sunday masses to the point of not hearing mass at all. But I still have my faith intact.
My dreams became worse than WORSE.
Having night shifts would be an advantage. That's what I thought.
But to my dismay I still got nightmares. And now they seem to be so real. because the setting in my dreams would always be what my surroundings exactly look like before I went to sleep.In my dreams I saw my self waking up from sleep. And you know what's odd? In my dreams I know that I was just dreaming.
In the corners of my eye I could see a dark figure looking at me. I would get scared and tries to shout but no voice will come out. I could sense that he's getting closer . I tried my best to make myself fall from the sofa so that I would wake up. (I avoided sleeping at my room hoping it would stop if I'm not in there) Then I prayed hard to God and then I was awake. Guys in short "gi-urom ko"
It was always like that in my dreams... until now. But now, it's no longer that often, unlike before.

***You know guys naa pa jud mas weird. Since di ko nahan sa kwarto nako sa sala ko matulog. And I have this habit of turning the tv on even if i'm not watching it. I don't know why, pero feeling nako mingaw au if walay saba. Mahadlok ko ug mingaw. Bisag half asleep ra ko, urumon jud ko ai.... bisag 15 min pa lang ko natug, urumon na ko... di na gud ko nahan matug. and sometimes bisag natug ko, inig mata nako kahibaw ko unsa nahitabo sa salida sa tv. I saw what happened in my dreams. permi jud in-ani.... wa na ko permi tulog***


PS. it might also be worth mentioning that my room used to be my grandmother's room. she died there...


I hope somebody can help me stop these... I don't know what to do anymore...
pls wake me up...
