sick in the body

So like I am not feeling well. Recently I have been feeling mentally sick. Not in a psychotic way, just not myself. As I have mentioned last time, I sleep a lot but recently I am not able to sleep and when I do I end up waking up by nightmares. My sleep, my only escape from reality, is being destroyed by thoughts from reality. Usual I ignore  thoughts from my personal life, but lately it has not been working. Maybe I should confront my problems instead of running away from them and ignoring them. I hate doing this, because I tell people not to run away from their problems and confront them like a man, but I sound like a hypocrite, so I do not say it anymore. My sleep is not the only thing disrupted, food too. I like eating, that is a fact, but now I don't want to eat, but when I say that I need to, I eat more than I am suppose to. I can't enjoy food anymore. That makes me very sad since I like eating and now its tasteless after it's in my mouth... I try not to show this to anybody, especially my close friends since they will start mothering me and treat me differently(like don't do that, treat me like you usually do). For example, Josei believes that whatever she says is helping while it really isn't. Like earlier this week when I told her on Skype that I have been waking up because of nightmares and I told her what were in them, she said that I should not let that bother me and only focus on my studies and school, but that I should also care for it, just not let it be my main focus. I agreed with her to make her stop giving me "advice". I like my friend for helping me, but I do not like it when she believes that it easy to not let it  bother me. It has been bothering me that I have started doing stuff I haven't done before. I have been praying, eating double than what I am use to, sleeping late, being messy(more than usual), not studying, and probably(most likely) not letting my room mates sleep with my laptop screen bright at night.
Going to sleep(hopefully with YAOI dreams....^_^ hahaha just kidding...no seriously -_-) without nightmares, but with this song playing on Pandora is creeping me out...turn off!
Anyways getting off topic, MAXIMUM RIDE! Want to go back home and get the second book in the first series (even though I already finish reading the first series), just can't put that book down once I read, that is why I didn't bring it with me to college....maybe I should read before going to bed.....
