What do you do right after you have a bad dream?

Be thankful it wasn't real.

Sit on the side of the bed and wonder what the heck was that...then I get in the shower and stuff until I forget about it.

Not necessarily "bad" per se... but I just had a weird dream where the wife of one of my affairs found out about us and she came to confront me about it.

For some reason, I had to go back to my old high school from my mum's house and the wife came with me... she and I were quite good friends after that experience.

We were laughing and having fun together.

Like you, though, I find myself unable to sleep again and here on SW...

take care of my morning wood

Get up outta bed,read put on music or tv,have a cup of joe(feel free to substitute something stronger) and try to relax

Right after I have a bad dream...I start hoping that it never comes true

I like to look up the symbols, to disarm the nightmare.

Get a cuppa and put the telly on. Just shake it off

Get up, walk around, see that you're ok

look up the dream in an online dream dictionary

Sleep some more for a continuation.

Write about it.
