Scary dreams are the result of stress, illness, depression, taking certain medications, fear, sleep problems, or severe losses in a person’s life. Sometimes they exacerbate a person’s depressed state, which leads to the development of severe depression or other mental health complications. Nightmares make you wake up in a cold sweat and spoil your mood for the whole day.
