why am i having dreams about suicide?

[k4waii.ari]

hi all, i just wanted to see if anyone knows has any idea whats going on. I have been having a lot of nightmares, and i even got on medication for it. but its not really helping. Ive been having recent dreams of people around me commiting suicide. i had a dream last night that I was trying to stop others that were from ages 7 to around my age to not commit. I was telling them how much they have to live for. i was scared and i was begging them not to do it. however, half the people in my dream did it. especially in front of me. i was traumatized in the dream, and now that im awake its still shaken me. i dont know if this is because i had a recent attempt this year, and i am still traumatized from it?? idk. if anyone can help id be happy to listen

I'm sorry you've been going through this.

i dont know if this is because i had a recent attempt this year, and i am still traumatized from it?

I think that's a reasonable explanation.

I have been having a lot of nightmares, and i even got on medication for it. but its not really helping.

I'm sorry the medication hasn't helped. I think you could try a medication adjustment, or you could try some other treatment methods.

Whenever I've had trouble with disturbing dreams, an acupuncture treatment has cured it immediately, though other people wouldn't necessarily get the same results in all cases.

You could also try making tea from rosemary (no tea leaves involved, just boil the rosemary for a little while).

I hope something can help.

After nightmares I sure do get them but you got to clear your head. So many people now stay inside now since covid and technology. Alot of people forget how to go to the park get some fresh air. I'm extremely sorry what you've been through and glad your still here. Let the past be the past i know it's easier said then done but letting go of the past is healing so is healthy distraction. We are rooting g for you
