What Causes Depressed Feelings And Fear?

My girlfriend recently had to start taking some painkillers for 2 pulled teeth, shes been on them for 2 - 3 weeks now. She tells me that she's afraind to close her eyes, something is telling her sleep is dangerous and feels if she falls asleep and won't wake up. She's also been very depressed lately she says. And can't stop thinking about disturbing images like planes crashing, cancer, maggots and worms. I'm very concerned and unaware what the heck is going on, do you know?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. These are delusions which are normal when we have deep seated pain. Depression is also playing its role. But for the time being she needs expert treatment. Please consult a psychiatrist.

Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
