How Do I Get Over a Scary Movie :s?

Question

I watched a scary movie and im really scared how do i stop the night mares :(

Answer 1

I avoid scary movies, because the horrifying imiages stick with me for days after watching it. But when you get the image in your head just try and replace it with another idea. its hard but eventually you just forget about it.

Answer 2

First, the more you try not to think of something, the more you will think about it.

Therefore, try this. Think about the images actively and rationally. Explain to yourself why the imagines are irrational.

Second, if you find yourself starting to think about the movie, immediately stop yourself by replacing those thoughts with equally powerful positive thoughts. Images of loved ones (parents, spouse, girl friend, children, pets etc.) Try reading a book with positive images. If despite these efforts you continue to have uncontrolled night mares or disturbing thoughts you may need professional help. Contact you personal physician or local health department.
