Didn't sleep well last night - had all kinds of nightmares

I must have had a lot on my mind last night. I had a hard time falling asleep and then when I did I had terrible nightmares all night long. I kept waking myself up only to go right back into them when I fell asleep again. Finally at 5:30 am I couldn't take it anymore and got out of bed and made myself some coffee. It kind of makes me feel off today. Dreams like that can really shake you up. Not sure what they were all about or why I was dreaming such things but it is terrifying. I am on my break at work now and feeling really tired. I hope tonight will be a better night.

oh that does make for a rough night, maybe you can get a little nap to help you get though the day.

@Happy2BeMe It really does. Nightmares can scare you, even if it is just a dream. It's not easy when it happens.

@DianneN I know it. I will feel better once I can get even a few gifts bought. My fiance just had his hours cut way back at his job. Not a good time of year for that to happen.

Sorry to hear that. When my nightmares won't go away, I get up and do something before I go to sleep again. It works every time.

Everyone needs to have sleep without interruption. Don't know many who do!

That's horrible, nightmares can really plague sleep and make you reluctant to go back to bed.

Yes they do that. I rarely can fall back to sleep after a nightmare because if I do i go right back I to the nightmare again.

A bad nights sleep is bad enough but adding nightmares is horrible. Sorry you are feeling off today and hopefully tonight you'll get some decent sleep and have sweet dreams

Oh no that is terrible! You will probably sleep well tonight just because you'll be exhausted.
