We hear from teens younger than you and there is always help. Have you spoken to your parents about this? They love you and need to know what you are going through.
NEVER feel like there is no help! I'm sure your school has resources for this, and talking to your counselor would help. It is mind over matter, and if you can stop worrying that you may die, then great, but often we aren't able to do this alone. Try to look at this logically, you've been worrying for 3 years of dying and yet you haven't!!! This should tell you something. You dream of dying because your mind is consumed with this thought all through the day. By dwelling on this, it's feeding your anxiety which in turn is creating even more anxiety and problems for you. If you don't get this under control one day you will wake up an old man and wonder where the years went.....you will have worried them away! Fears and worry creates and maintains our anxiety, until we stop this worrying our anxiety is not going to get better. I used to get panic attacks, always worried when the next one would strike, a vicious cycle. Then I lost my son, and I welcomed my next attack because I no longer cared about anything, and NOTHING worried me.......the next panic attack never came. No worry or fear equals no anxiety. You need to get a grip on this now or you will have this for the rest of your life, and I know you don't want that, nor do I. You're so young and have a lot of living to do, don't alow this irrational fear to hold you back. You've been proving it wrong for three years, every night your brain throws the thought out, only for you to let in back in the next morning. I wish you all the best and hope you get help.
I was your age when it started for me. It's a life changing event that you need to get control of asap the longer it drags on like this the harder it is to deal with it took me many years and alot of heartache to figure it out . The way I control the beast is i look at it as a "Mind over Matter'' situation, As long as I don't Mind it doesn't Matter'' Hope this helps.
im a 17 year old kid all i can do is help myself no proffesional help... there are no therapists near my place so.... i really can but i really agree about what you say and thanks
I totally agree with nursegirl, you need to get some help with this because it is consuming your life! Don't try to interpret dreams, we sleep so our brains can "re-coup" and when you dream of death it's your brain trying to rid itself of that thought, so you need to allow this to happen. Put all your efforts into getting help and not dwelling so much on your dreams. You're going to dream all of your life and putting so much emphasis on them is setting yourself up for a big anxiety problem! This fear of death started with a video, your anxiety has latched onto it, and you need to learn how to let go of it. Therapy can help you to do this. Dreams aren't predictors of anything, they can be indicative of our worries, but no more. Please get professional help right away so you can get your life back. Good luck and take care.
