Luckily, I don't get plagued with too many nightmares that will stick with me throughout the day. On the Rare occasion that I wake up immediately after a nightmare, I'm usually in the mindframe of "whoa....that was fucked up..." and go on about my day. Hehe. However, most of my nightmares have gotten me lucid, and I'm able to deal with them in whatever way I chose, while I'm still asleep, which is good. ^__^
