[Dream contents of sleep disordered patients].
The present study investigates dreams reports of patients with sleep disorders. Whereas, the findings scarcely showed specific dream contents for different sleep disorders, e.g. problematic dreams in insomniacs, breathing-related dreams in sleep-apnea-patients, a remarkable relationship between waking life and dream contents did occur. Private problems and occupational stress are reflected in dreams by means of increased negative feelings, aggression and occupational themes. The results suggest that dreams can be made use of in psychological invention methods in sleep disorders, e.g. stress management.
