I never used to really dream but every once in awhile but now I have the strangest of dreams. Does anyone else go through this?

Members connected over experiencing unusually vivid or strange dreams, with many noting this shift has become more common since living with chronic conditions. Several members shared practical observations, including that dreams intensify during deeper REM sleep, certain medications like melatonin at higher doses can trigger nightmares, and some find relief through pre-bedtime prayer, mindfulness practices, or maintaining consistent sleep routines. A recurring theme was the surreal and sometimes unsettling nature of these dreams, met with humor and reassurance that others share the experience.

Always. I do lots and lots of listening, reflection, meditation and contemplation. During the day. I eat light meals, only drink water and practice grounding whenever I can. I do the best I can. Working on getting back to my aqua swimming routine.

Yes, I do have nightmares, so much that before sleeping, I pray and ask the Lord to clear my mind and thoughts of anything that would cause nightmares or bad dreams

Yes, I do, especially if I sleep on my couch. Sometimes my dreams seem so real. Glad I'm not the only one.

Many medications can cause weird dreams. I know if I take 5 mg of melatonin I am fine but if I take 10mg of melatonin I have nightmares.
