Funny thing.
The few "nightmares" I normally have are nothing like someone would define the term. If I find myself dreaming of really "frightening", unrealistic horror-scenarios, I usually realise I am just dreaming at one point or another, and then I have the fortunate ability of being able to "turn" those events in my favour... always ends up like a cheesy version of "Army of Darkness", really... LOL
The even fewer dreams that really make me feel bad and manage to wake me up in a cold sweat are usually dreams that are so realistic that I don't notice that I'm dreaming at all. There's nothing really "frightening" happening there, either. It's more like any normal everyday situation, but there's an overall disturbing feeling or mood that carries through it, like I'd be having a depression or something. And when I wake up from one of those, that's really a lousy start for a day...
