...Nightmares...

Random or recurring, nightmares suck! They can disturb a whole night of peaceful resting and leave you tired in the morning. Not only that, but some nightmares can be traumatizing. By definition, a nightmare is "A nightmare is a bad dream that brings out strong feelings of fear, terror, distress, or anxiety." What causes nightmares? What do they mean? Often, people will have recurring nightmares about a horrifying or traumatic experience. Although most nightmares are spontaneous,  there are other causes for different kinds of nightmares in adults. Late-night snacks, for example, increase brain activity and can cause a nightmare afterward.Other things like medication, such as narcotics and antidepressants, can cause nightmares as well due to their reaction with chemicals in the brain. Some people are just unlucky and suffer from chronic nightmares and sleep disorders. If a person is having recurring or frequent nightmares, there will be ill psychological effects. Nightmares have been associated with suicide, although the relationship isn't fully understood. Less intense effects include heart disease, depression, and obesity. So people, I would really recommend getting a dream catcher!!!
