Hello all, this is my attempt at recreating some of the nightmares that I've been experiencing recently. I'm in the process of possibly receiving an additional diagnosis to which these incidents play into. However, in the mean time I set to creating a project to truly describe and depict the severity of the nightmares I've been having.
I feel as if I cannot do them justice even with this video. They're so much more visceral, the sounds far more distrurbing and the scenery more warped and upsetting than I can convey. Honestly this is simply a shoddy attempt at creating a piece that will translate some of the horror that I'm experiencing to those who wonder what it's like.
I've woken from dreams like this in a blind panic, sometimes paralyzed, still hearing and seeing visages from the experience, sometimes in immense amounts of pain and other times in a state of complete shock. I have yet to truly understand what will put and end to these incidents, other than working through the trauma that caused them or medicating with drugs that'll alleviate them while I work through things, however in the mean time I wanted to put forth a project that could shed some light on the subject for those who are interested.
I do not see this as 'entertainment' and I caution people against viewing it that way. This project was created for awareness. If anyone can slightly relate to this video, and can, in turn share it with someone who doesn't understand, then I'll be more than happy. I try to avoid really deep projects like this without a mission, and so that being said, please watch this video with that in mind.

What causes these nightmares?
Most often it's unresolved trauma that can occur as part of PTSD or CPTSD.

How long to they last?
For me these nightmares tend to last for an hour and a half, but you are fully conscious of what's going on throughout that time and the memory doesn't fade upon waking, like with other dreams.

When did this start?
Recently as I've been diving into my past and bringing up old memories, these nightmares have surfaced.

I have similar experiences, what can I do?
It is incredibly important to look at the cause of such issues alongside a licensed professional. A therapist can help you work through their content and offer a road toward resolution. However, if these nightmares continue and you are having a hard time extinguishing them certain medications can be prescribed to limit your ability to dream in such capacity.
