Kate!!!!!

Don't go!!!!

I know you will all think this is weird but...

Can hormones have anything to do with it

I find I have horrible nightmare ONLY before my time of the month!!

It sound crazy..I don't get PMS but do suffer from horrific nighmares!!

It sounds crazy I know:heart:


Doesn't sound any crazier than life itself ...laugh ... Crazy by definition, uh???

OK, I'd think that hormones could have everything to do w/ it ...

Also, these monthly hormonal fluctuations can be nutrionally intensely demanding ... They could be "calling" you to attend?!

Women need extra Vit D, B~Complex, Calcium/Magnesium, Flax Seed and Fish oils ...

Also, certain herbs really help regulate the "needs" ...

ESP ... Vitex/Chaste Berry, Black Cohosh, Red Rasberry and Dong Quai, etc ...

I could recommend a great blend ...

Solaray's "Female Hormon Blend SP~7C" in tandem w/ Vitex/Chaste Berry ...

I'd suggest journallin' the dreams, as well, as a woman's ovulation and period times are steeped in even more pronounced psychic intuitiveness ...

WHAT is your life sayin'??? ... Listen to the patterns, and find the message!

... flowerforyou


Edit ... Never just take Calcium/Magnesium ... Instead, get on a full, good Multi~Mineral supplement too!

If it isn't in our food, which most is not?


We must add it to get the balance ...


Yours could be even demanding more as you approach the door of "The Change"... :wink:

ah well my first question would be r u drinking too much coffee or alcohol before going 2 sleep...stop and no exercising before retiring.

second question would be what is going on in your daylight hours that would affect your sleeping subconscious hours? what kind of stress r u under at work?

can you get some strenuous exercise to make you sleepy? mow the grass, walk one hour a day.

this sounds very serious. do you take sleep medication? for if you don't, surely after 5 days of sleeplessness, you become sleep deprived, and this is not good. consult your MD to find out what is right for you.

you could have sleep disorder of sorts.


Ity was so strange. Thanks Duff, will write you later about other things.

No alcohol for me, cofee, same as the usual. Stress from wk is assistant resigned, he was very sick- physically. That was the day I talked to you know who tho.
Walk all day back and forth, up and down ...on my feet, exer4cise is all I get, which is great, at work. It's gone now. Yes, would have taken something if it continued, scary stuff.

Yeah, I do ... flowerforyou

I'd suggest:

Limit your caffeine, only before noon, too

A sound machine w/ rain or ocean

5-HTP ... an hour before bed

Melatonin ... an hour before bed

A Sleep~Time herbal mixture that includes hops, chamomile, passion flower, valerian root, and the like ... an hour before bed

Say Prayers before a nice meditation ...

Meditating on the way to your sleep ... try the one where you start at your toes and slowly relax them, as you continue in this fashion, working your way up your entire body, one body part at a time ...

Journal your dreams ...


I have a sound machine, didn't think of it. The last night (mon) it was starting I was drifting in and out, started my conversing with the People upstairs. All of a sudden a couple of mockingbirds! were outside my window, singing. Stayed there for awhile, I said thnkyou and feel alseep. Could hear them for on and off a couple of hours. Strange? no.

Didn't know HTP worked for sleep. Melantonin- have also. Benedral- not sure- those darn side effects get me the next day.
I have mood support with alot of those herbs but use it more for nerves and the next day am a little zoned out.
Will try the HTP in a little while, that seems to have little effect on me the following day after using it.
Thanks Kate! Those dreams freaked me out, they weren't OBE so to speak, this was real negative energy pulling at me.


You are so welcome, sweet Reg ... flowerforyou

How's it goin', did it resolve ... Are ya sleepin' any better?

I sure hope so ... drinker ... Cornerstone of good health ... :banana:


Thank you Kate, you are the sweet one. Things are much better. Everything was werird. The back porch light went out, motion detector, changed lightbulbs- nada. Mood was heavy, slept but dark no dreams. Friday, felt great again. Last night was out back with my flashlight and all of a sudden back light came on. What ever it was is gone now.flowerforyou
I leave for a few days and you sleep like a log ohwell


Yep, you worry me.laugh :wink: :tongue:

do some research on the causes of nightmares on google.i pulled up some stuff, but it is very hard to know exactly what to say with information presented.

sleep deprivation is a bad thing. if you start forgetting things, you are tired.

seroquel is an antipsychotic, but it makes you sleep as do those other drugs. however, it causes sudden cardiac death in elders.

you might have to go for sleep research study. costs money. but gives u answers.pitchfork

There's a name for this and it's hypno__something and I'll find out what it's called. It pertains to the almost slide show type(for some folks)of visuals just before you're totally asleep.
