Winter sun
I started having nightmares around the beginning of the year. I've had bouts w/ nightmares before. As a kid I had a recurring one. I looked up what I was dreaming about and once I realized it could never happen, the dream immediately stopped. Had another series of awful nightmares in my 20's. Those took a bit more work to resolve but I stopped them too. The ones I started having this year didn't have any on-going theme. I'd get them once or twice a week and would wake up w/ my heart beating fast and a feeling of terror. Figured it was another of those 'aging' things but when I mentioned them to people, no one had experienced an onslaught of nightmares as they aged. Googled it but, again, nothing. Around the beginning of this month I finally put the timing of the beginning of my nightmares together w/ the start of the new president's term. I have been so angry/disgusted/horrified by his actions. With no outlet for my frustration, it was bubbling out in my subconscious. The good thing is, like the nightmares of my youth, once I figured out the cause, they've stopped. (Of course, the bad thing is the dolt will be president for another three years.)

Hopefully not! I can so relate because the situation has also caused me to have weight gain and anxiety!
No nightmares but lots of nausea for me. Suspect the cause was - and is - the same.
kn :(
I'm rooting for the impeachment route.
