Looking for help with nightmares

Hello, I am new to this forum and I was wondering if i could get a some advice to help me deal with my nightmares.

Background: I have had severe sleep problems that have affected me for the last 2-3 years, and nightmares are one of the most predominant issues. I have nightmares at least 3-5 times a week and have had them my whole life. However, they have started to increase in severity and have caused me to lose a significant amount of sleep.

Nightmares: I will not go into extreme detail when describing my dreams, but the content usually revolves around: me getting kidnapped, me getting tortured, not knowing the identities of those torturing me, and the inability to move.

I have tried not to think about this sort of thing in the past but I am now starting to understand the value of coping strategies and how talking to other people can be helpful.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
