Sometimes the details that are not in your nightmares or the details that you cannot remember are just as intriguing

overwhelm, anxiety, fear, my daytime actions/thoughts don't match up with what is 'right'. lots of different things depending on the actual dream/nightmare.

How I am too cowardly to do what must be done to succeed in what I want to do- get a book published!

I’ve never had nightmares, but I do dream!

Do not have nightmares and never have. I do occasionally dream I suppose but never remember anything.

Just my mind overworking.

Sooo true

Fortunately none of nightmares have come true.

I used to have the same 3 reoccurring dreams as a child, whichever position I slept in. I've had a lot of vivid dreams over the years too and the odd nightmare since :-)

It's just entertainment.

First and foremost to get out of bed. Apart from that, if you suffer from PTSD, the nightmares are usually flashbacks of past horrors. If you don't suffer from PTSD, nightmares may be providing clues to solutions for upcoming problems. If nightmares persist, you should go to a psychotherapist for help.

Dreams can warn you of something that's comingyour way.

My nightmares when I have them are horrific, they wake me up, and I'm terrified most times..I have to get up for a while till I forget about it..Someone is always chasing me wanting to beat me or murder me..I'm sure it's all to do with my past being beaten by my husband and then later when I finally left him, my physo partner

I think Nightmares are visions of past life mistakes, and as for me its also a reminder to keep away from Cheese of any sort past 7pm

Memories, sometimes half remembered, do come back to haunt us. Often there are strange recurrence type dreams which scare us awake. I have found as I age these dreams retire and have not resurfaced - thankfully!

It is what is in your head

I think it is your sub conscious sorting out ujnrelated thoughts and putting them to rest.

I don't have nightmares, bad dreams or even dreams. Once my head hits the pillow most nights the next thing I'm aware of is the alarm going off. Sometimes one of the cats will wake me but I soon drift off again.

Most nightmares are memory-based, however I have had premonition nightmares too. Funniest thing is that the real experiences were nowhere near as scary as appeared to me in the nightmare.

Freddy is coming..

Thay are just a mechanism to wake you up!

don't know I sleep at night !!

Don't have any nightmares only memories from past lives

Don't know as I never remember my dreams

Suffering stress

I dream a lot and usually there are more dead people than alive. Also people I have seen recently or thought about recently appear many times

I don't have nightmares thank goodness

Nightmares usually are triggered by trauma especially if they are re-occuring nightmares and being exposed to frightening things our minds do not understand or scare us some carry over into day time things that happened to you that was traumatic and harrowing and sometimes things later in life that reminds you of them might trigger nightmares and some are due to what you did that day or saw or watched, Demons also try and haunt and scare you, Staying close to God will keep them away and praying stops them.

I don’t recall dreams or nightmares at all these days but remember when I was a child having the one where you’re falling for a long time.

Fear 😧 live a fearless life ☺️

I still remember a nightmare I had over 40 years ago. I dreamt that my youngest daughter drowned at a very young age. Fast forward to about 20 years ago - now she will barely speak to me. That IS a loss for me. :-)

I think it's jumbled up thoughts n fear that transpire in our subconscious just like normal dreams butore scary

I had a dream that my son in law Brought a Kombi VW with a extended wheel base and was a double decker. He backed into the driveway of a house I sold 9 years ago. I think that shows I need another beer.

Telling you that you need Jesus.

When we worry about things we have nightmares. Hence stop worrying!!

There is always a meaning behind nightmares.

Most of my nightmares centre around fighting with my old co-workers or friends from my childhood. Sometimes I win I just carry on with my adventures, sometimes not. If not, then I wake early. I was told once that these were dreams related to feelings of helplessness and/or hopelessness. Maybe these feelings have manifested themselves for so long they have really contributed to my depression.

I don't suffer from nightmares.

i don't suffer from these

Read many things, and reached the conclusion they are like horoscipes. Answers are so general that they fit about anything a person wanyts.

Thankfully don't have TOO many!

I still have work dreams 14years after retiring

Usually they mean stop watching crap, and do'nt eat random stuff right before bed. Sometimes people look for deep meaning in simple problems.

Sometimes they mean something and sometimes they don't. If it's recurring then you should be analyzing the theme. I have experienced and learned about how, and what, causes mine. Sometimes it's because you went to bed mad, or your system is mad at you for eating certain things. Sometimes it's a health issues and your body wants you to pay attention to it. Nightmares are a negative. Now, if it's good things that keep recurring, those should be analyzed also, but something good will happen on down the road, and to the positive. (These are things that I have experienced with myself, I am not any type of physician)

I don’t worry to much about the bad dreams I have but I do worry about some of the nightmares that wander our streets……lol

I had a dream I was driving a fire truck kinda cool because I drove into an area with a lot of trees but everything was okay in the end.

Some of the nightmares because maybe someone u know and the person passed away and try to communicate with you

spicy or sharp food, and dog on your feet. down Grommie.

I wish I knew

I believe our dreams are a redlection of ourselves

Give up the strong alcohol before retiring to bed

you need more sleep

Fear ..

That you are sleeping so time to WAKE UP

Stress, something you ate before bed.

Worry

If I'm having nightmares, it is always because I have an issue with someone that I am not able too directly speak to abound resolve. the issues manifests itself as very nasty dreams

Dunno! Not nice, but!!

ty again Hanno..!!!

HELLO Hanno, ty!!

My nightmare is the friggin labor gov these days. What a disaster!

I had more when I was young and in midlife, but rarely now. Now, there are just bad dreams about ex-wives.

I find if I've had a bad day with lots of stress, I sometimes would have a bad dream which would wake me up and as soon as I go back to sleep it would play out again like falling down the stairs, but I would wake before I hit the bottom, so I may wake with a fright and my heart racing but I'd be ok. I also have dreams of my loved ones who have passed over as I find I can connect to them easier when I'm relaxed but this is not a nightmare it is a blessing. have a good day xx

I can't recall any nightmares as an adult only as a child. I often don't dream any more. When I do dream it is often being confident in a social situation that in real life I am not confident in, that is my common theme

Don’t have them

I have them from time to time, or night terrors. I thk worries often bring them abt. They are normal. Your brain is telling you to pay attention to your fears. 😔

Too much sugar before bed

They are all in your mind, ignore them.

hi JANN R TY

Just who are these so-called Experts? Just what are their qualifications? Or are they just psycho-babblers making a truckload of money out of people's fears and anxieties? Because that is what so many people do. They think they need to see a Counsellor and then spend, literally, decades, having expensive, weekly, appointments which acheive nothing.

I had a nightmare the other night, I had lost most of my hair/teeth, my skin was all wrinkly I smelled like bourbon, and I needed a shower, the I realized dreams do come true .... but I do have a lot of nightmares I have interacted with them jumping out of bed actually cut my head badly once, they are with people of my past, both living and past on, what they are trying to tell me I don't know but the way I'm going I might be joining them soon

WONDERING WHY I HAVE NOT BECAME A MILLIONAIRE YET

I use to listen to a dream "expert" on the radio on my way to work. People would call in and she would interpret their dreams. People seemed to agree with her, so I don't know how reliable dream interpretation really is. We ourselves cannot interpret dreams, so I don't think we would know what they are trying to tell us.

that your imagination is active, scary but active

I had nightmares after my mother passed away and we were talking to each other it was like she was still here

That I am constantly worrying

I have nightmares when I’m not well

I so seldomly have nightmares, and when I do they're so non-sensical that I don't think that there's really much to interpret from them.

it's just your mind doing a de-clutter and tune-up

Nightmares is a cosmic mystery..sometimes it's true it can be frightening especially if it's torchuring and you try desperately to wake up hoping for the dream to come to an end. It can be a lot of things..but I personally know that everything we dream of always has some kind of message, and it is the internal connection to us, in some bizarre way that we don't even understand. The reason? Unidentified and Unexplained. Edited 21-Jun-25 07:49am

I haven't dreamed in many years and cannot remember any of them.

Just your mind orceyes in motion

I have a recurring one for over 40 years. Mannequins breaking out of window displays, chasing me down a dimly lit street which turns to sludge, all slow motion. Always wake up screaming, absolutely terrified of mannequins in real life and their smaller kin...dolls.

hi, ty jeffery t 1083827

For me...when I "sleep" it feels as if I am "awake" and my "dreams" are all just regular days where I am living and doing whatever. Then, when I "wake up" from my sleep, I realize that...damn, here I am in this "waking dream" again. ;)

I haven’t had one for ages so in all honesty I can’t comment.

It's sad that whatever happens during daylight hours often upsets what should be a into peaceful sleeping time. Darkness does not blackout the terrors of the daylight happenings.Edited 21-Jun-25 05:36am

Nothing, because I don't have nightmares, at least that I can recall. I can't even remember my dreams, which I know I have to be having, but I never remember if I did dream! ;-D

The experts say it can be premonitions of events to come that affect you or memories of the past that your mind revisits in subconscious

Not really dreams for me just a listening for a noise from my husband to make sure he is OK during the night as he is sleeping on his own because of problems with his legs & being treated for ulcers on both.

Not too sure on this one. Occasionally I dream of falling, but I wake up before I hit the ground! Otherwise it’s just really weird dreams I experience

hi ty lin r

NOTHING

Nightmares are caused by your subconscious and what is going on around

don't pay attention to any

Guess I have a sh*% life. I have vivid and often violent nightmares most nights/days.

Whishy washing thinking!

I rarely have nightmares but when I do I always wake up right before something bad is going to happen.

Hi Natalia J 521321. I have NEVER had a nightmare (I know hard to believe). Hence, I do not know what a nightmare is telling someone. However, I have ongoing, continuously erotic dreams on a regular basis! My erotic dreams are informing me - it is 'time' - to seriously reconsider marriage as a viable option! Unfortunately, I am a born-again- capitalist - if I get married a second time - I would forfeit my alimony (which comes with a cola (cost-of-living-adjustment) from my first wife!
