Below is a question and answer from Yahoo Questions that I wanted to share, but I also did a bit of research on how to make yourself have nightmares. I found out some interesting tips and also explained a little bit about why you would want to purposefully have nightmares.
Calby Asked: How to make yourself have nightmares?
Giving this another shot, I liked the answers I got last time but I’d like more suggestions and I should probably explain myself a little this time. xD
I have b6 vitamins, I’ll be taking them in a little bit to make myself have a more lucid dream. My project is to find out why I’ve been having the same nightmare over and over again and I’d like to make it more vivid and so I can remember the whole thing when I wake up.

Write down your dream every night. Your brain automatically wipes your dreams from your brain before you wake up, or even after that (ever wake up and remember that you had a dream, but not what it was about?). Get into the habit of recording them, then your brain will realize ‘OH I must remember these things’. It will also help if you review the sheet everyday so that your brain realizes that you are trying to remember. I read that off of some site years ago, and it worked for me. I was NEVER able to recall a single dream (which didn’t help when I wanted to try lucid dreaming, obviously lol).

There’s no sure fire way to dream more, but I’d just recommend keeping a dream journal if you don’t already have one. No one really remembers their dreams after a few hours (or minutes!) have passed, so writing it down right after you wake up can be really helpful. Then you can look at what actually “happened” and analyze it & make connections with experiences in your life/thoughts you’re having. This is actually pretty interesting, good luck
