Same here on the nightmares, for awhile they were happening every night for several months then I finally broke down and called a therapist for help. I found talking about the content of them with the therapist helped reduce their frequency after awhile, I also take an herbal supplement for depression to reduce some anxiety/depression/impulsive behaviors. With the combo of therapy, meditation and "medication" its been getting better. I'm still working on some parts, I have a lot of issues. That's why I chose to go to a therapist who uses cognitive behavior therapy because my negative ways of thinking were making my life miserable and CBT has the most evidence for efficacy on the conditions that I suffer from.
