I always have nightmares anytime I sleep, even when it’s just a nap. Once in a while I do get weird dream instead. Mention any scary creatures ever exist in either fiction stories or in real world, I think I’ve had them in my nightmares. I’d wake up panic and it took a while to realize it was just a nightmare. Sometimes my nightmares continue if I fall back asleep. Never tried any med for it but I heard Prazosin helps.
