Most youngsters suffer from nightmare disorder, also known as 'dream anxiety disorder', where during your nap hours you will face and see many nightmares .which may sometimes scare you and wake you up exhausted.

Doctors have suggested some of the effective treatments overcome this.

However, its effective treatment has always been non-characterised and situational. According to a position paper from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), a variety of treatment options may be effective for nightmare disorder in adults.

Helpful treatment options are available for adults who are experiencing distress due to nightmares," said lead author Timothy Morgenthaler. "The judgment and expertise of a knowledgeable clinician are essential to ensure appropriate treatment selection and effective management of nightmare disorder.

Nightmare disorder involves repeated occurrences of nightmares that cause clinically significant distress or impairment. It affects approximately four per cent of adults, occurring in isolation or as part of other disorders such as PTSD, and it can significantly impair quality of life. Nightmare disorder also can exacerbate an underlying mental illness, such as depression or anxiety.

The first step to get help for nightmares is to discuss this concern with a doctor, who may refer you to an accredited sleep centre for a comprehensive sleep evaluation by a board-certified sleep medicine physician, said AASM President Douglas Kirsch. "Effectively treating nightmare disorder can improve sleep quality, resulting in less daytime sleepiness and improved alertness.
