So its about my dreams when I'm sleeping . I dream about bad stuff that happens In my dreams that I don't like or dont want to happen at all. Stuff that I would never do ever. This scares me Because these are things I don't feel or want to do at all or to happen and things that would never just happen period. Freaks me out when I wake up and I feel kinda guilty but its just a dream idk what to do ... is this normal ? Or can our brains not control what we dream about ? Please help!!!

I think dream interpretation is fraught with misdiagnosis and over rationalizing, but dreaming about unpleasant things is not unusual. My dreams are usually quite weird and are made even more so by my medications. I have on many occasions dreamed of very bad things happening. I never let it worry me, they after all just dreams. Think of the bad thoughts that have crossed your mind while awake. They are just fleeting thoughts with no chance of becoming reality, so you just dismiss them and carry on. Do the same with your dreams.

Check your medications and see if any have the side effect of vivid dreaming or something similar. If some of them do have this side effect you should mention it to your doctor and he/she may be able to help by changing meds, reducing dosages, or adding another med to combat the dreams.

Above all else try not to let them bother you too much.
Thanks for this!
