Any Advice For Dealing With Triggering Dreams

My OCD is largely centred on worries about the safety of my family and friends. Last night, I had a bad dream that was very triggering in terms of my anxieties, and has really given me some intrusive thoughts and put me on edge. I was just wondering if anyone has ever had a similar experience, or if anyone has any tips for dealing with this?

Thoughts and dreams are just thoughts and dreams. Just because you think or dream something, it doesn’t mean it will become reality.
