Bad dreams, or nightmares, provide an important release for emotional and psychological stress. They also bring repressed or suppressed emotions to the awareness of the conscious mind. At times, bad dreams provide a sort of rehearsal, in the sense of creating an opportunity to try out different reactions to threatening situations in the safe context of sleep.
