Having Nightmares And Scared =(

I have recently started really dealing with my trauma (I was raped 11 years ago). I have started having some very strange and vivid dreams, all of which involve either me getting physically hurt by another person or by myself. Last night, I had a dream in which I was practicing learning how to stab a needle and syringe into a person s heart, but using myself as the dummy (I actually felt a stabbing pain, too). I wake up 4 to 5 times a night because of these dreams. I am dealing with what is... Having Nightmares And Scared =(
