    I would try the herbal route first. My herbalist loves ashwagandha for improved sleep (among other benefits). I did a quick search & here's an interesting link:

    I had one once about some guy that came killing everyone in our neighborhood with a big sword.

    I kept running and eventually ran into a giant "piggy bank" (literally....a giant porcelain pig with a cork at the bottom)......

    i crawled up inside and stayed there....while giant tractors scooped up all the dead bodies on the roads.


    Eventually I put all those together and figured out that I was running away from a certain issue....

    and that I put so much of my energy into having money.



    After I sorted out those issues....the dream never came again.


    I know it sounded silly....but it was actually really scary. haha

    I have been having nightmares since childhood (I used to sleep walk back then too & occasionally now) but as for my adulthood - If I stop having nightmares for more than a few nights I worry b/c that is my norm. When I don't have them I think that something is wrong - I know it sounds weird. I have many dream books & I keep a dream journal. That may help you to at least understand what the dreams are saying. Good luck !! :flowerforyou:
