things people do after having a nightmare that isn’t crying

  • struggle to catch their breath
  • grab onto whatever’s close enough to ground themselves in reality
  • become nauseous / vomit
  • shake uncontrollably
  • sweat buckets
  • get a headache

things people do to combat having nightmares if they occur commonly

  • sleep near other people so they can hear the idle sounds of them completing tasks
  • move to a different sleeping spot than where they had the nightmare
  • leave tvs / radios / phones on with noise
  • just not sleep (if you want to go the insomnia route)
  • sleep during the day in bright rooms

things people with insomnia do

  • first, obviously, their ability to remember things and their coordination will go out the window
  • its likely they’ll become irritable or overly emotional
  • their body will start to ache, shake, and weaken
  • hallucinate if it’s been long enough
  • it becomes incredibly easy for them to get sick (and they probably will)

Other things I'd add to this:

  • Doing something to keep them from falling back asleep after a nightmare (going on their phone, opening their computer, etc.)
  • Put their back to a wall or otherwise do what they can to physically feel safer
  • Remind themselves that the nightmare isn't real, especially if it's recurring
  • Have microsleeps (extremely short/seconds-long sleeps) if they get sleep-deprived enough
  • Be exhausted during the day/increasingly exhausted over time
