Is this for real? I've suffered with frequent nightmares for years and have never been diagnosed by any medical professional as having a 'nightmare disorder.' Not to mention the information in this article is fairly repetitive of that in the nightmares and night terrors articles. Isopropophlex (talk) 05:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Sigh, insurance companies only pay for medical conditions that have a name and code number. Doctors have found it is easier to play the game rather than fight. PMS is another example. Jimmyreno (talk) 04:23, 15 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Under the demographic needs to be a reliable source for the claims.User:LAlex91 (talk)

There's nothing really "medical" about "disorders", and none of them are "real". That's the whole point of not calling them diseases anymore. They're just groups of actions, caused by whatever, that weren't anything at all before some people in ivory towers combined them in a tome. Wizardry, pretty much.

To not merge, on the grounds that the topics are distinct and independently notable. Klbrain (talk) 05:37, 20 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Formal request has been received to merge: Nightmare and Nightmare disorder; dated: March 23, 2020. Proposer's rationale: Content is quasi exactly the same. Pinging proposer @Walidou47: discuss below. Richard3120 (talk) 18:42, 26 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • Keep 'nightmare' as a separate article I am completely opposed to medicalisation of what is an extremely common lay term to describe some sort of horrible dream. Nightmare disorder might be a disorder relating to nightmares but we should keep these articles separate. --Tom (LT) (talk) 22:01, 27 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Keep 'nightmare' as a separate article I do think "nightmare" and "nightmare disorder" are two different things. So keeping them in two articles is just right. I strongly reject the idea of merging
  • Keep 'nightmare' as a separate article I oppose the idea of a merger as they are clearly different things. I have the occasional nightmare, as most of us do, I doubt anyone would diagnose me with a disorder. Skieski (talk) 07:15, 26 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Keep 'nightmare' as a separate article I also oppose a merger as one is a disorder and the other is a symptom which in turn has a variety of causes. Other articles related to mental illness also split the general symptom article from the disorder article (e.g. anxiety and anxiety disorders, depression and mood disorders) Marsp (talk) 09:50, 1 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
