As an adult do you still have them???

As an adult do you still have nightmares...not just odd dreams...i mean cold sweat, freaking out nightmares...if you still have them how do you handle them...



It's 5am and i woke up in a cold sweat...in my dream someone had taken my kids and killed my dh...i was freaking out...the weird part is i knew i was dreaming but i couldn't wake up...when i did finally wake up i jumped up and searched out my kids so i knew they were okay then went back and curled up next to dh...now i can't sleep so i am here playing on cafemom...lol

Yes i do, especially when im preggo. All thru my last pregnancy, i dreamt that the world was ending. It sucked! Lol

Every once in awhile I get a bad nightmare. It doesn't happen often. So I don't have any remedies.

Nope!

I did hear once eating a banana before bed can cause nightmares. I don't know if that is true.

Sometimes.

I used to have them while Dh was deployed to Iraq. I used to dream men broke into our house and made my ds and dh line up against a wall and shot them in the head and made me stand and watch and then made me clean up the mess.  I am so glad i don't have those dreams anymore.

Yes!
I've always had horrible nightmares, now I make sure everything is ok and try to get back to sleep.
If its too bad, I get up and watch tv or something.
