Nightmares
Every normal person has bad dreams. Bad dreams or nightmares make you feel scared, anxious or upset. While you sleep your brain doesn’t turn off. You have several stages of sleeping. The main stage of sleeping is Rapid Eye Movement. Rapid Eye Movement is when your eyes move back and forth under your closed eyelids. If you wake up during this situation it is easier for you to remember what you dreaming about. The longest period of the REM is towards morning. That is why your most colorful dreams and nightmares occur in the early morning hours.

Why do I get nightmares?
Many things that happen to you during the day may turn the dreams to nightmares. The way we relieve our pressures is the nightmares. This means that we usually need to deal with our problems at one time or another, like problems at school, or problems at home, or any other problem in your life. Sometimes major events can cause to a nightmare, things like illness or death of someone we loved, those things cause u stress that leading you to nightmare. Another thing that may cause to nightmares is watching scary movies on T.V or to reed a scary book before going to bad, or any other scary things you heard or saw. Sometimes while having high fever, you may have nightmares. Certain medications also can cause to nightmares. When those thing happens notice your parents and your doctor about it.

How can I prevent nightmares?
It is important to emphasize that every normal person have nightmares once in a while. But there are some ways that you can try to deal with it. The first step of dealing with, it is to go to bad in the same hour every day, and avoid getting naps during the day. You need to avoid scary movies and scary books. The second step of dealing with nightmares is to go to sleep with toys or something you have connection with them. The third step of dealing with nightmares is to use a nightlight. If you awake from a nightmare you will be able to recognize your room, and to notice that you are in the real world and you shouldn’t be scary anymore.

What if the nightmare don’t go away?
Most of the time nightmares aren’t a big problem. Its O.K to tell your parents about your nightmares, just to talk about your nightmares, can help you to feel better.

In a survey I conducted, I found that 93% of the people had nightmares.

I asked people who remember their nightmares after they wake up, and this is the results: 89% remembered their nightmares. On the other hand 11% didn’t remember their nightmares when they wake up.

I wanted to know if the nightmares influence those people life and I found that only 11% are influence from their bad dreams
