Teen Affirmations

I have nightmares every night after doing positive affirmations.Any help plz?
I have been doing positive affirmations on self esteem and confidence as I have a negative self image since my teens…I am 24 now,male…I have a recorded positive 1st person present tense affirmations CD.Now everytime I fall asleep listening to it at night,I see these terrifying scary creatures,something like straight out of a gory horror movie,lots of blood..today,i saw 2 huge ugly dragons/serpents fighting each other and i woke up,my heart was racing.Is it my subconscious mind resisting the new positive thoughts/suggestions?
Also,long time back,when I wasn’t doing this affirmation thing,I used to pray before bed..Even then,I had these nightmares….When I did none of the above,dreams were normal.
What is going on?
I agree. You’re trying to help yourself but this is seated deep in your subconscious that you ‘can’t', and your mind is going through internal struggles to try to get you to move forward.
It’s basically just your fears manifesting. I know it’s not the best thing to have happen to you while you sleep, but the mere fact that it IS happening means your mind IS dealing with the fact that something has to change.
Try this— keep doing the affirmations (as they ARE moving you forward) but just before you sleep, tell yourself that ‘things may be scary, but I can handle them, I’m only moving forward in small steps at first and will take the bigger ones a little later’. This offers your subconscious a ‘way out’ in that you’re not needing to do ALL of this all at once.
