Dreaming

[candy310]

Hello Doctor, My identical twin brother died just over 2 years ago and i am having non-stop dreams about him and my previous life to the extent that it is causing me to wake up feeling tired, bad headaches, depressed and generally not my self.  Will these dreams ever stop and why am i still having them after all this time. I was completely devastated by his death as it was so sudden, i could not bring myself to go and see him as he was in a coma and was scared to see him in that condition.  I have a bad phobia about hospitals and doctors and have not seen a doctor for over 37 years because of this. I miss my brother terribly as he was like a part of me, i cannot ever see me getting over his death. He was married with children and so am i so we did have separate lives but we always had a bond between us. I thought we would both grow old together and i am finding it hard to accept that he has gone.  If something happens i still go to phone him forgetting sometimes that he is no longer here. I have not had any form of counselling as i cannot open up to people, i was brought up to get on with life and take the knocks as they come. If you and anybody could explain what is going on and how long it will take for me to get back to being my old self again i would appreciate any help.

If you can change your diet..get on "candida diet" if you're not sure what to be eating
try to stop taking any meds or drugs
take "all natural and preservative free" multi vitamin, vitamin b, and calcium supplement daily
take flax fiber daily
take flax oil daily..read directions (omega 3 is crucial in your healing)
drink as much water as possible daily
get some form of steneous exercise everyday..or start with walking at least
do deep breathing (relaxation techniques..look this up) daily

do all these daily and you will be feeling better in no time..do it consistently. God bless!

Hi,
How are you? Dreams are usually associated with the REM stage of sleep. However, if this is occurring regularly and is affecting your daily life, you may benefit from a consultation with a sleep specialist. If you have problems with seeing a doctor for consultation, you may want to consider complimentary and alternative medicine such as hypnosis. Take care and best regards.
