Everyone is prone to bad dreams now and then, whether it's a monster chasing you or being lost in a dark and spooky house. Nothing out of the ordinary, just run of the mill nightmares.
A few years back I started carrying daily, and I noticed a distinct and completely unexpected change to my dreams. I still have bad dreams occasionally, but they're no longer scary. If anything they're bad action movie comical. Some 8' tall hairy monster with sharp teeth is after me? Instead of running, I just draw and drop the ugly sonofabitch. Lost in a spooky house full of dark rooms holding indescribable horrors? Draw, kick down the door, and be grateful dreams can't give me tinnitus. A bad dream about someone breaking into my house? Those used to freak me out, now they're comical because there is nothing scary about dreaming you're shouting "You broke into the wrong goddamn rec room!".
