Sleep Disorders

[uniofglos]

I am a 21 year old student and for the past year I have been having really bad nightmares. This has never happened throughtout my childhood and started when i was stressed on my teaching practice.
I regularly let out a blood curdling scream during my sleep which wakes me up or wake up in a state of panic. I can only sometimes recall what made me scream which is usually something in my dream landing on me or something coming towards me which is going to kill me, like a car. Sometimes however I have woken up withe the feeling someone is in my room and I will jump out of bed sweating and panicking. When i can recall the dream that scared me, I can never remember a full dream, just the last 2 minutes which frightened me. I will wake up breathing heavily, sweating and my heart beating very fast. The nightmare will always happen less than hour into me falling asleep.
Not only is this disturbing me, but my boyfriend aswell. When we shares a bed with me I have woken up on the floor ontop of him because he said i kicked him out of bed then landed on him whilst screaming. I wondered if anyone has got any advice because this is distrupting mine and my boyfriends sleep. Thank you
