@sallyharper Not knowing your history it is hard to say what may be causing thus. I am an adult survivor of extreme abuse. I have PTSD and a dissociative disorder. Nightmares are terrifying and terribly disruptive to adequate rest. I hope the lithium helps you. Keep us posted as you can.

So very sorry about your abuse. Human inflicted issues are so hard to take......I had no physical abuse, but extreme emotional abuse. Mine aren’t always scary just detailed and go on and on. I’ve shared with my daughter who is a therapist and she gets exhausted just hearing all the details. Think the lithium is helping and plan to continue. Thanks!

Hi, @sallyharper -- I saw your post today about disturbing and detailed dreams and thought of you. Wondering how your sleep and dreams are going recently?

Thanks for asking. Still dreaming, but thought I was over the scary dreams. I spent the night at my sister’s and was told I hollered out “help me, help me.” Didn’t remember it. Do you have sleep/dream issues?

maybe a medication can be a cause for hallucinations. I had to stop metoprolol (b-blocker) and take another one (bisoprolol).
