Stop eating spicey foods before bed time...

Look up Jung's theories on dreaming and lucid dreaming.
One can teach oneself lucid dreaming by keeping a dream diary beside the bed and writing the dream down as soon as one wakes.
Important dreams (those which are trying to help you deal with an issue and grow) will repeat.
As you become familiar with a particular dream and recognise it you will slightly wake but still be in the dream. At this point you can consciously direct what happens. It may take over on its own course, but gradually each night you'll be able to control more of the dream so that eventually you get a happy outcome. The amazing thing about this is that it translates into improved life skills.

An example for me was that many years ago I had a recurring nightmare of a rapist and murderer stalking me through the back streets of the inner city on my way to art school.
At the time, I was in an abusive relationship with a control freak who was starting to become violent. I was unconscious of just how intense my fear of him was.
As I began to lucid dream, the dream changed. In the first versions, I became faster and better at getting away.
In the last version, I found a route where he could neither find me nor anticipate me.
When I dreamed this last version, upon waking I realised I had to get him out of my house, change the locks, change my phone number and get an apprehended violence order.
The next time he bashed me I went to the local police. They took photos of the blood and bruises and prosecuted him. The judge awarded an AVO in my favour.
I changed my locks and phone, packed up all his things and drove them to his weekend rental.
He sent roses and kept leaving handwritten messages under my door.
I spoke with my solicitor who sent him a warning that this was a breach of the order and one more violation would land him in prison. The words and flowers ceased.
Later, I discovered he had stolen one of my fractal sculpture designs and commissioned it to be mass-produced in embroidery in Indonesia. My solicitor sent him a letter of warning of breach of copyright, and sent a similar letter to the factory. Fortunately that fixed that and was the end of my experience with him.

Out of it - the dream and the experience - I learned to recognise a control freak, avoid relationship with one, and become much better at asserting boundaries.

After you've unpacked the dream and worked out what this person wants, you should pray before bed.

That's brutal.

I'm sorry you go through that.

Sleeping can be very hard.
