Most dreams are pleasant or merely puzzling. Bad dreams or nightmares occasionally disturb the sleeper so that he wakes in terror. If nightmares persist, they should be discussed with a doctor. In the case of a child, persistent nightmares, which are sometimes night terrors, may be a symptom of an emotional disturbance in his waking life.

Dreams are accompanied by rapid eye movements, with the dreamer moving his eyes as though his eyelids were open and he was looking at objects. When a person in such a state awakened, he usually recalls a vivid dream, though of allowed to sleep on, he may not be able to remember dreaming once he wakes.

During dreams the heart beats faster, and the brain waves are similar to those of someone who is awake. But in a dreaming state, the brain cannot analyse impressions properly. The sleeper accepts the bizarre and the improbable without question or surprise. His memories are confused and jumbled; his impulses may be foolish or anti-social.

The dreaming stage of sleep is considered by some psychologists to be rudimentary kind of thinking. In a waking state, a person's brain receives impulses from his sense which are analaysed and interpreted by the brain. A person in his waking life is concerned with mastering the outer world; in dreams, he is passive spectator of his own inner world.
