• New research revealing a link between social media use, nightmares, and poor mental health outcomes such as anxiety and depression
• The Social Media Nightmare-Related Scale and how the intensity of your social media use predicts the frequency of social media-related nightmares
• Theories about why we have dreams and nightmares, including the Continuity Hypothesis of Dreaming and the Neurocognitive Model of Nightmare Etiology

• How to reduce the time you spend on social media to avoid nightmares and boost your mental health
