My partner has suffered from regular night terrors since he was a child. He has been to psyciatric professionals to try to get some of these dreams explained, but because he has not had any trumatic past experiences to this day he has not yet had any diagnosis. He dreams regularly of being tortured, stabbed, shot, chased all dreams having a real horror theme where sometimes he twitches and moans, sweats cries teeth grinding etc. When he awakes he remebers all dreams vividly and fears going back to sleep. His dreams affect his mood all day and as a teenager had hallucinations of people walking around mutilated wherever he went. He did seek help but was moved from doctor to doctor and was prescribed all sorts of anti depressants which didnt stop the dreams, just made them easier to forget. If anyone has any advice we would really appreciate it?
