Nightmares - Do I need medical help?

I watched a 17 year old kid get crushed by an overturned lorry on the M1 3 years ago. I was 14 at the time. It was horrific.

He was driving a motorbike. All I remember was this FedEx lorry by the side of our car, my mum switched lanes. The lorry then made a sharp turn, my mum made an emergency stop. There was a kid with no helmet on, in the path of the overturning lorry, he was pulled under at 60/70Mph, never to be seen again until...

After the firemen lifted up the lorry the kid was unrecognisable...Blood everywhere...body parts everywhere. I still have nightmares of it today.

I couldn't sleep for the past couple of nights thinking about this.

What shall I do?

Well give it time. You said the past couple of nights have been hard, that is 3 years after the incident. There is nothing you can do so just stop thinking about it. That is all I can say really.
you are clearly traumatised, I would advice you to seek the help of a theraphist.
Oh dear, that does sound bad.
Get medical help, it would be incredibly hard to get over this yourself!
Yes, you need help. :yep:
