Dreaming during the pandemic

Anecdotal reports suggest that people are experiencing more vivid dreams and nightmares during the pandemic. Many studies indicate increased stress, anxiety, and concerns about the virus in dream content. Sleep quality has also been affected, with both increased sleep duration and decreased sleep quality observed. Dreams may serve as reflections of people's concerns and anxieties, offering insights into their mental well-being. Researchers are conducting a multinational study to investigate the link between COVID-19 and vivid dreams, examining dream content and its relationship to mental health.
