Hey everyone, I'm brand new to this website, and slightly new to lucid dreaming (I have very little experience in it).
My whole life, I almost never had nightmares, and when I did they were so silly I would wake up and realize how impractical they were. But lately, I've been getting them very frequently. Its getting to the point where a majority of my dreams end in either myself dying, or finding someone else dead. Its becoming harder and harder to lucid dream because I'm constantly in fear while dreaming. Is there a way to avoid this? The one I had the other night is stuck in my head, and now I'm almost afraid to go back to sleep. How can I make the nightmares stop and get back on track?
