Yes, it is quite possible, and there is not anything necessarily pathological about having only nightmares - although that probably is not actually what you are experiencing. Everyone dreams several times every night (or sleep cycle) as your mind passes through various stages of sleep. The vast majority of your dreams fade away unless you happen to wake up during the night while they are occurring or immediately after they end. So you probably are having plenty of normal dreams, but only remember the nightmares.
> One possibility to consider is whether something you might be drinking or ingesting could be disrupting your sleep and causing these nightmares. Energy drinks and anything with caffeine could be messing with your normal sleep cycle. Alcohol is another very common factor to conside; although a drink late in the evening might help you fall asleep, it can also cause you to awaken about four hours later. Similarly, highly stimulating Video Games or anything that tends to get your mind wound up and stressed (competitive) near bedtime could lead to sleep issues.
