Answer 1

Restating:
Yes, Max, I can understand your feelings which comes in your nightmares. I got the point where you started feeling.
Reflecting:
Max is that the Afghan government involved in protecting the wounded population? your nightmare made you depressed and scared so you are afraid to go for sleep.
Giving advice:
Max tries to walk for sometime before going to bed. Write about your past experience in one note. Put off the TV, Lights and listen to some mild music, talk about your past experience with us. Avoid consuming coffee, tea before sleeping.
Minimizing feelings:
Max why don't you involve in some physical activity and share your nightmares with someone.
Falsely reasoning:
Max do you know something, The Taliban decided to do really favor for Afghanistan to make concern on an Afghan population who injured in war.
