Most wonder why they see nightmares; after all, isn’t it a childhood thing? It is not really. Recent studies have proven that 2 to 8 percent of the adult population is plagued by nightmares. The exact reason for having scary dreams have not been found out yet. Still, sleep researchers point towards many suspects in their list. The researchers attribute many possible reasons for nightmares. These reasons can vary from physical to psychological and from person to person.

Physical ailments and diseases can be a cause of uncomfortable sleep and trigger nightmares. Use of narcotics, tranquillizers, overconsumption of alcohol, withdrawal from some medicines and so on are also cited as causes. If you feel that there is an increase in the nightmare frequency after changing a medicine, it definitely is something to talk to your doctor about.

I think that a bad mood or lack of sleep can cause nightmares.

Dreams are a reflection of our reality. The images we see in our dreams are always related to what we did or thought about during the day. They aren't always our thoughts before we go to sleep. It may even be one thought that you thought for three seconds in the morning. That's enough for your brain to start processing the data and reproduce everything with visual images. A nightmare can be caused by thinking bad thoughts about yourself or something you've been through lately. Even a dream about a butterfly may not mean what you want to think about a butterfly, but rather what it means metaphorically. A dream is our brain's message that it has solved some problems.
