Many researches have been done over the years. Moreover, a report published in scientific reports, claims that, "Frequent nightmares have been linked to other sleep problems, especially insomnia, and mental health problems, especially symptoms of depression, as well as to lowered quality of life in general."

The author of the study adds,"People who experience frequent nightmares may also be susceptible to mood disorders and they have slightly higher risk for committing suicide than people without nightmare problem(s)."
