Divorcing a Narcissist: Nightmare Spray

by Tina SwithinThe nightmares are still taking place...even with "our month of peace" that was awarded during the ex parte.Thankfully, my youngest daughter, Sarah (age 7) does not remember the nightmares. Sometimes, she doesn't even remember that she had a nightmare but we can hear her. Some days husband hears her yelling out when leaving for work in the morning and I've heard her yelling out during my recent bout with insomnia.We have recently upped the visits to the girls' therapist - back up to once per week to deal with the anxiety, anger, and whatever emotion is on the weekly agenda...all related to Seth's reappearance in our lives. During a recent session, Sarah came out of the session with a cup of water. It was glitter water and it smelled of lavender.It's "nightmare spray," Sarah said proudly as we walked to the car. "You get to spray it on me before bed and it will help with my bad dreams."Each night before bed, we deliver an extra dose of love and then spray Sarah (and her bed) with nightmare spray. She thinks it is helping and following the advice of her therapist, we will let her think that because it seems to give her peace and make it feel better, If your little one is dealing with nightmares, I highly recommend putting together your own bottle of nightmare spray.###“Like” One Mom’s Battle on Facebook or “follow” on Twitter.Seeking a Private Forum for advice, inspiration and support?
