What could be a reason for having nightmares almost every night?!
Question: There are a number of possibilities. Some nightmares can be caused by certain drugs or medications, or by rapid withdrawal from them, or by physical conditions such as illness and fever. The nightmares of early childhood likely reflect the struggle to learn to deal with normal childhood fears and problems. Many people experience nightmares after they have suffered a traumatic event, such as surgery, the loss of a loved one, an assault or a severe accident. The nightmares of combat veterans fall into this category. The content of these nightmares is typically directly related to the traumatic event and the nightmares often occur over and over. Other people experience nightmares when they are undergoing stress in their waking lives, such as difficulty or change on the job or with a loved one, moving, pregnancy, financial concerns, etc. Finally, some people experience frequent nightmares that seem unrelated to their waking lives. These people tend to be more creative, sensitive, trusting and emotional than average.

cold rooms (or you being cold due to lack of sheets, clothes etc) induce nightmares most often
I think dreams are a way the subconscious gets thoughts through to your conscious - sometimes we try to block out certain thoughts, but when you're asleep you're not in control on your thoughts. If you feel a deep emotional involvement in the dream then it's probably one of these dreams. think of how u feel and see if it makes sense when u apply it to your life.. I believe the dreamer knows what the dreams mean best.. like for example - maybe in your dream you feel like you're sure you're continuously failing a driving test.. when in real life you might be a bit nervous about a job interview.. that sort of thing. on a lighter side, you might simply be sleeping in uncomfortable circumstances.. different pillow? different mattress? fever? etc..
