I am a fairly well balanced person with a healthy spiritual practice. Most of my adult life I have nightmares and always thought it was my subconscious revealing to me repressed issues that I need to work on.

But it's been so pervasive and continuous even in my happiest times that I am beginning to believe there is 4th dimension sabotage trying to interfere with my mental and spiritual progession - almost like subliminal torture. I wake up mentally and emotionally traumatized until I can recouperate on a conscious level through daily interaction. Almost every night about 20 minutes after I fall asleep I am jolted awake with a feeling of terror and panic.

I have started to pray for protection while asleep and have seen improvements in the content of my dreams. But not much improvement.

Wondering if anyone has any insights or similar experiences. I sincerely would like some help with this.
