Perfectly normal if you are stressed. The only thing you have to worry about is "what" it is, that is making you stressed enough to have nightmares.
Sorry to hear that, It isn't fair. I get nightmares often early in the morning too, they are not fun but I really don't know what can be done about them.
Truly sorry to hear this: I wish you well, & hope that the unpleasant dreams stop soon.
It's not necessarily stress, you dream about things that are on your mind and on your subconscious. If you are stressing over certain things, there's a good chance your dreams are going to reflect it.
My obsessive compulsive sister and I had a physical altercation on Sunday evening and I've had weird, stupid nightmares for the past two nights! :-(
I think it is. I asked my housemate and he also thinks its normal. So this comment actually consists of two yes votes
Of course it is completely normal. It happens to me too. Try to balance the stressing things and non-stressing things. I know is not easy, but make your best effort to make it. Then you'll see you'll sleep better.
