the reason you're having nightmares is probably because you haven't gotten any r.e.m. (rapid eye movement) sleep, which is when your dreams happen. r.e.m. sleep happens about every hour and a half when you're sleeping, and the longer you're asleep for, the longer your dreams get in each cycle (alternating btwn. the 90 minutes, and then a dream). A lot of studies have show that if you keep getting woken up before you can get into this r.e.m. sleep, it starts causing really bad nightmares. I think what you need to do is just get a couple really good nights sleep, and get yourself back on a schedule. i would try getting really drunk or like, taking an over-the-counter sleeping pill (unisom is really good) just for a week or so.
i hope your nightmares go away!!!
