Tension, anger, fear.... repressed emotions mostly. Its usually worries in the back of your mind that have been bothering you for some time and you haven't spent enough time to understand why.

Thanks echo for your civil answer.

Nightmares can be normal - just a sign of whats going on at the back of your mind - or can be a sign of a traumatic event that you can't get over. When you have a nightmare, its best to treat yourself as if what happened in the dream was real, ie, be nice to yourself that day, because it can feel as if you really went through what happened in the nightmare, which is upsetting obviously.
