Dear Karel,I have dream...

Question
Dear Karel,



I have dream nearly every night since I was small. I work and get married recently. You know, if I have dreams or many dreams at night, I would feel tired esp. in the morning. How to improve this situation.

Look forward to hear from you soon.



Thanks and regards,

Answer
everybody dreams every 60-90 minutes after they fall asleep.if they are frightening dreams where you wake up screaming, then this is different and could be a sleep disorder.now if you are tired ,my guess is it is not the dreaming but the restlessness of your sleep. to improve this i would not exercise at night, stay away from any alcohol, drugs, or caffeine,especially coke, pepsi, or chocolate as the caramel has caffeine in it,and lastly believe it or not dring a glass of hot milk,milk has natural tryptophan in it, this may relax you more and make you sleep better,if this still is a persistant problem, i suggest than you get evaluated a sleep center. I hope this helps, feel free to write again,karel
