I don't know how it started I just know that I was in the military because my husband went mia and I had to go find him. I ended up at some camp where they had a ton of our men and women captive. There were also children there. I watched from the outside as they beheaded everyone. Then I was caught and my punishment was to watch them behead my husband. I begged and pleaded but they killed him anyways. I woke up sweating and my heart rate was beating right out of my chest.
I've never been so terrified or horrified in my life. It all felt so real. It took me a while before I could go to sleep again. I know that these dreams all stem from worry but I'm always worried about him and I've never had dreams like these before.
My family is big on premonitions and dreams meaning something, but usually not what you think they mean. Which just confuses and scares me more. I can't tell anyone my dreams because they will just try and tell me what it means and I really don't think I want to know.
Someone please tell me this has happened to you and I'm not being warned or something.

Dear Mrs. Sykes
This has happened to me before, right after my boyfriend left to go to his first duty station i kept having dreams that he got deployed and blown up :( like you i woke up crying and scared, i even called him to make sure he was ok, (he wasnt happy with me waking him up at 0300 but he got over it) I just started watching happy movies before bed, and falling asleep to the TV on and that seemed to work. I havent had any for a week or two, also make sure you arent eating anything like chocolate or sweets before bed. that can cause bad dreams too. Hope this works for you!!! <3
I'm so sorry about your nightmares. I know how haunting they can be and how scary it is to try and differentiate between what is and is not reality. I've had the opposite problem. My husband got in a few days ago and the nightmares are lessening, but since he's been home I have multiple nightmares every night involving something happening to him or someone being there with us with an intent to do something to hurt us.. it's creepy, and they are just too real. Don't think too much into it. It is a mind game. You are worried and wanting your husband to be safe.. it's a constant thought while they are gone. I hope the bad dreams go away and that you get a good nights sleep.
My husband isn't in the military, but I do have terrible dreams regarding my daughter or other people in my family. I have awaken many times in the middle of the night screaming and crying and my husband has to calm me down. It's not fun, and it makes sleeping anything, but enjoyable. I have found that my dreams are worse when I'm under alot of stress. I'm sure that's why you keep having such terrible dreams. I don't know, but I'm sure having your husband deployed is stressful, and your body may be reacting to that stress through your dreams.
Your dream last night sounded awful! I totally would of been screaming from that one!
I went through the same thing, but more so before he deployed. It sucked because very rarely do I remember dreams, but when I do, they are completely awful. I talked to the boy about it and he even admitted to having horrible dreams as well about me. I guess it meant we were both stressed, and given deployment is completely new to both of us, it weighs pretty heavy on our minds. I think yours has a lot to do with the fact your husband was just home on R&R. You've already said your goodbyes once, he came home, and then you had to say a second goodbye. That's tough. When he was home, you wished it would be for good, but you had to send him back off to war.. again. Whether you like it or not, it's going to weigh heavy on your mind. Try to think positively before you go to bed. Although it's easier said than done, don't anticipate these bad dreams. For me, it helps to think about the last really sweet thing my boyfriend has said to me when i've talked to him last. I hope this helps chica!
