Nightmares

[curiouslyrandom]

I'm sick of 'em. I don't know what is at the root of these movies that play out in my head night after night over the past month or so, but I really want to change the channel. It's very much like watching a violent movie... but I don't watch TV and don't see many movies, either. Somehow, my mind comes up with these stories anyway, probably based on films or stories I was exposed to when I was younger, but even then I abhorred that sort of violence.

What do I need to do to make them stop? Is there a way to tap into the root cause and remove it? I'm sure there is, just looking for some input.

I don't have them every night, and they're not the sort that cause me to wake up suddenly. It really just feels like watching a movie. I've been talking about writing a screenplay with my bf, but I don't want to write what I've been seeing. Maybe I don't want to admit--even to myself--that I can have such violent, twisted thoughts?
