Why such horrible/vivid dreams?
I’m so sorry that you’re experiencing that! That’s terrible. Are you on any medications? Anti-depressants in particular are known for giving their takers very vivid and upsetting dreams. Other medications can do this as well. If this is the case, it may be time to switch medications. If not, ask yourself- what has changed in the past two years? Is there a situation that may be causing a greater amount of anxiety or stress than you had before? If you can pinpoint the variable, it may be easier to fix. Even the recognition of the cause of these dreams could possibly help them to go away.
