No, they just had to deal with the recurring nightmare of pre-industrial, pre-medicinal, pre-agricultural life.

They did have the recurring nightmare of waking up already half-eaten by predators, though

I’m sure they had similar nightmares, something else that would cause embarrassment. From my understanding our dreams is our subconscious preparing us for things to come. That’s why we experience dreams like losing our parents at the supermarket or showing up nude to school. Mentally preparing us for embarrassment/loss

I had that nightmare, but I just said fuck it and laughed with everybody else.

Maybe, but they might've had PTSD after witnessing a member of their tribe getting eaten alive by a carnivorous animal, stomped to death by a mammoth, or dying from hypothermia!

If you were on the swim team before the 1970's, it was normal to be naked there ( but nowhere else on campus ) .

Yea they’re nightmares we’re just about getting their head bashed in by their neighbor or getting eaten alive by a saber tooth.
