Is it normal for an adult to have nightmares?

So when im generally stressed i tend to have nightmares
And they're like, based around things like me driving and failing and crashing and me being a giant dissapointment to everyone and other fears i have.
Sometimes im genuinely afraid to sleep incase i dream because any dream i have is a nightmare.
Nightmares ive always thought to be for children though??? is it normal for an adult to have them?

    I have nightmares a lot, and am as well afraid of sleeping...

    Nightmares got nothing to do with age. They are just thoughts bundled up in your mind over the day.

    Start thinking more positive about yourself.

    Of course. Who doesn't have nightmares?
    As for being afraid to sleep, no that's not normal.

    You stupid fool. I'd be more worried about you thinking that adults didn't have nightmares! What the fuck is your problem?! Do you think people automatically stop dreaming about things they don't like once they start puberty. WHAT THE F...!!!!! Okay...calm down *deep breaths*

    I'm leaving before I rage again...

        Sometimes stupid people need to learn with a bit of...vigour.
