Scary dreams!

I very rarely have actual nightmares, though I have unpleasant dreams. I recall waking up once at University, in the middle of the night, completely convinced there was a black dragon in my room. I couldn't get to sleep for a while after that one, even though I don't remember the actual nightmare. The worst ones I've had recently have been very strange and hard to describe. Both times, I've not been able to get back to sleep so I just lie there until I'm fully awake (and therefore know that they were just nightmares)... then turn over and go back to sleep once I feel safe again! I also remember one which most people would consider a nightmare - one of the aliens from the Alien film franchise was trying to get into my room at University, to escape from the Marines chasing it. I helped it hide, which was strange.

Frankly speaking i like such a nightmares! Now a days i watch such dreams very rarely, i want to see long dreams a lot, but unfortunately i haven't seen such dream from long time. I hope today i'll get someone.

i don't know if you believe in omens and all but, i think its a symbol or something like that. from what i could understand , you r in deep stress or the company you are in, things form your day to day life are( or will) chasing you. you aren't able to keep up with your work. dreams specially nightmares sometimes do indicate your present or rarely your future. on the contrary to this in a dream or nightmare the world is in your control so your wish will come true in your dreamland so don't worry about such dreams.

I sued to have nightmares too. It is also my husband who always would wake me up and comfort me. But not anymore, since my father's alternative doctor taught us on how to avoid nightmares. He told us that before we lie down to sleep, we should drink at least one tall glass of water. I forgot his explanation about this, but since we are doing it, we never have nightmares anymore.

In my country, old folks say you get nightmares because you slept with a full stomach, I do not know how true this is or if there is a scientific basis.

nightmares are greats, is like episode for my own dramas ahaha

Oh yeah , one can get very strange and scary dreams like that some times. There may be different causes for that. It can be caused by the things you were thinking about just before falling asleep. If you wre thinking about travelling, you would be dreaming about travelling and things you could see on the trip. If you were thinking about a tiger, oh , then, a tiger will show up in your dream ! Ha ha ! That would be pretty scary , right ?

I've had a few dreams where I get sleep paralysis at the same time, but they're very rare. To me, they're the most scariest because I can't move in my dream well, it's like my feet and arms and whole body is like lead. Sometimes I'd have trouble running away from someone, or crossing the street when there's cars coming, my whole body would collapse on the ground and I'm desperately trying to get up to move out of the way but can't. Eeks. Usually I wake up before anything bad happens, but then that's when I'm still in sleep paralysis, that I can't physically move my body immediately upon waking up. I shudder now even as I'm typing this :-(

What did you do before you went to sleep? Have you watched some scary movies a few days ago? Did you go to sleep with a full stomach? Well these are some of the reasons why people have nightmares. I've tried having nightmares before, but I never had a hard time getting back to sleep again. I just change my position like from right side-lying, I'll go supine, back or left side-lying then after a few minutes I'm asleep. If this does not work for you, have you tried drinking warm milk? usually warm milk makes someone feel sleepy.

Scary dream are always fun for me
