Help Any ideas to prevent nightmares?

[CuriosityAndCat]

My psychologist believes I wake up in a panic attack and freeze response possibly because I'm having nightmares.
Any suggestions on how to prevent nightmares ?
Also what has worked for you to break freeze response?

This past Sunday was really bad. I couldn't calm down and went into collapse. I don't remember what I dreamed, but I still felt it.
I'm going to take prazosin and start working out regularly again.

Prazosin was effective. Felt great when I woke up.

you can also try journaling your dreams and rewriting the endings if it is something that really troubles you! Just relaxing before bed, maybe taking a warm bath. No scary stuff before bed, not eating directly before going to bed, etc.
Wishing you sweet dreams! <3

Dude, I realized most times I have nightmares I wake up too hot and sweaty. So this is why! I'm gonna control temperature from now on.
