I've always had nightmares, it's just something you get used to. Although they still scare me at the time..unless I realise it's a dream, then I usually laugh. |

All of my life when I had nightmares they would haunt me for days, and I would be afraid of going to sleep for several nights. Recently I became interested in lucid dreaming (and dreaming in general). Since then I've done failr extensive research on the science behind sleep, dreams etc. |

i have dreams that mortify me. i don't sleep until my body crashes, and sometimes thats 6 days. i start halucinating and the dreams become more life like then ever before. but yeah, I've become interested in lucid dreaming... maybe if i can control my dreams better, it won't happen, so maybe i can actually sleep. and thats what brought me here. |

I have nightmares and I slept with the light on. I once had a nightmare about fighting Darth Vader and when I awoke the light stayed on. |

I ended recurring nightmares as child while being lucid, even while i didn't know what lucid dreaming was. All i knew is that the nightmares fear me when i'm in control |

I think that it is most likely because you realize what a dream is now. You realize it is something you can control. Maybe it was the lack of control over the nightmare that scared you and not the nightmare itself? |

I think you overcome your nightmares because you started learning about dreams and probably how they work too. |

I too had what some would call a nightmare, and it was recurring. I always died at the end, and I started being lucid in the dream everytime I would have it. It's been a months since I last had the dream though, even though I used to have at least once a week as a child. I don't even remember being scared of them but once I think. Now it seems that with any nightmare I have I wake up, say "I had a nightmare." to myself in the dark, and then go back to sleep. o.o |

I've never had nightmares |

That's great! I used to have this recurring dream character for the longest time when I was a little kid and HATED going to sleep. I was terrified of nightmares. Luckily, around 9 or 10 years old, I stopped being afraid of them and now I really like my dreams. I'm so glad you got over your nightmares, I know how they feel. |
