Hey Everyone,

Please Help me sleep!!!

I am very concerned because I have never experienced this to the extent that I am experiencing these dreams today!!! I have ptsd and I have been experiencing dreams related to my past like every single night. During the day, I am NOT disturbed. I am quite happy :grinning::grinning: and I have been very happy lately. But at night, I am dreaming about funerals and all types of arguing with love ones who have moved on. In the past, I would only have a bad dream maybe like 4x a year. Now they are literally every single night. Spiritually, I have been praying more than ever and I feel like my prayer life has taken off to great levels. So I don't understand all of this!

Scenario #2: Last, night I had a dream that involved a demon standing on top of me and choking me and paralyzing my right side! But when I called on the name of Jesus, the demon looked up and then ran away then I woke up.

I have been home very ill with fever and pain on one side of my body. I have also missed a lot of work due to a major infection and a back injury. I know the doctor told me in the past that high fevers can cause hallucinations as well as nightmares.

#1) How in the World can I get rid of these dreams?

#2) Is this just fever?

#3) Or is it a summation of fever, spiritual warfare, and the ptsd.

When I was in the intensive care unit for a life threatening illness. I had such terrible dreams that I was afraid to go to sleep and I saw demons in my hospital room.

Long story short, I want to feel better. I am very sick and I need rest. Can someone please help me and pray for me!!!

I will be praying for you. :prayer:

I have been through something similar. It was physical, mental/emotional and spiritual. But there was also a lot of fear involved.

Are you taking any medication?

Keep praying and trusting in the Lord. Pray for protection (Holy Angels), comfort, strength and healing, and keep your thoughts pure and focused on Christ. Keep working through your emotional trauma with the Lord and with other Christians. Read the Bible every day.

Rebuke anything that comes near you in Jesus' name, and speak Scripture. They will flee from someone who trusts in the Lord. Fear no evil, because God is with you. Try and rest as much as possible, listen to worship music and praise God!

Thanks hun!! Yes, I am on a high smount of antibiotics, pain medication, and medicine for swelling in my back.I am home sick right now and need sleep...lol!
Pain medication could cause hallucinations and also make us susceptible to attacks, because it affects our minds. I'm not saying that you should stop taking them, but it could be a possible reason why it has increased.

If the spirits and your past were haunting you before, then it could just mean that they have more opportunity to do so in your weakened state.

But God's power is made perfect in our weakness, so use it to grow closer to Christ by trusting in Him through the attacks. You have nothing better to do anyway while you are home sick. :)

Just yesterday I saw a video of a youtuber who said that when you advance in your level of intimacy with God then the demons turn up to attack you in your sleep and in your dreams. What she does is she sings songs of praise to Jesus and they flee and let go. She suggests that you should listen to praise and worship songs whenever possible so that these songs are deeply rooted in you and you are ready to use it as a weapon when the enemy turns up.

It is hard to say.
Anxiety and stress can have the same effect.
Try some natural herbs that will help with anxiety and aid in sleep before you get too concerned with demonic attacks.

I like Skullcap tea. Lavender oil in a diffuser by your bed side helps many people. Also, avoid caffeine. That is the thing that causes me trouble like you have.

BlessUp.
