So, here’s a little story about my partner, he’s a loving and caring person, always there for others etc..

He has really bad nightmares, now they’re not just ordinary nightmares where you lay back down and go back to sleep..

he screams, hits, kicks and so on..

2 nights ago he had a night mare that someone was in our bedroom and he full on pulled my pillow from under my head, once before I’ve woken up to him pulling me out of bed by my hair..

now, he’s never been abusive towards me, never touched me in an abusive way, but when I confront him about the nightmares and about how it scares me, he says it’s ‘normal’

I’ve tried talking to him and I did say ‘babe, I think you might need to see a doctor or something because to me, these aren’t normal’ and he got so angry with me..

I’m not sure what else to do, does anyone have any advice?
