i get nightmares every night, i even had one where i was crucified like Jesus and had the crown of thorns on my head. my other nightmares are like a Steven King movie. i just learned to live with them, i am on clonazapam which knocks me out at around 8 every night so i don't worry about the dreams anymore, and wen i do have them, after i wake up and find out the nightmare was a dream, i have to think on it awhile if it were true or not. i can handle it better and sometimes i do have very very good dreams too,every once in a while. i am on alot of other meds too so maybe that helps too. i do have sleep apnea and sleep with a machine which helps me stay asleep at night and awake during the day. maybe you have it too?
