Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,
welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Bad dreams or nightmares are common in following condition:
-Poor sleep hygiene
-Stress
-Anxiety and depression
-Substance use

For treatment stop substance use (if present) and follow sleep hygiene. Apart from that visit nearby psychiatrist to rule out psychological reasons for nightmares.

Wish you good health and all the best.
