I have a friend who is exhausted from horrific nightmares. Not bad dreams but relentlessly unspeakable horrors.

If you have ever suffered from traumatizing nightmares, can you share anything you've found that helped?

(Yes, they are in the care of a number of doctors; no, the doctors are not helping.)

Seeking experience- or research-backed replies only, no conjecture or search engine results. Will lock for "I asked ChatGPT".

Thank you.

What metrics are important for you when it comes to #running? #HRV, #Sleep quality, #RHR, or something else?

I tend to adjust my RPE during my running sessions based on my sleep and awake HRV. If my HRV is above or below my normal range (which is 105-110 sleep and 83-85 awake) I adjust the intensity of the workout accordingly.

What metrics do you monitor and how do you adjust your workouts according to these metrics?
