I think that about 50% of my nightmares are about genocides or some human-caused apocalypse. The other 50% would be some guys with guns trying to kill me and/or my family.... I've NEVER had normal nightmares like the Boogie Man chasing me or falling or anything like that, not even when I was a little kid! In fact, I think that the genocide nightmare would come up even more frequently when I was younger. I would always just remember the idea that two different groups or countries had some argument which would result in everyone's death or some terrible war. At first I thought that this might have been caused by the fact that I was a kid during 9/11, but I remember not even understanding the significance of 9/11. I thought that type of thing happened every day, and I didn't even find it scary... Is this normal? Hahaha I'm not sure it is......
Note: I'm not a very worried person in real life. I'm also a pacifist, but I didn't really become one until about two years ago when I got old enough to think about philosophy.
