I used to remember my dreams but as I have gotten older.I don't seem to remember them anymore or don't concentrate on them as much I suppose.

Most of the time I always remember my dreams. Sometimes I'll only remember a few parts...the main points of the dreams. However, as I have some of the most bizarre and awful dreams I usually never fail to remember them in grim detail. There are still some dreams that haunt me. Dreams I had when I was a kid that still years and years later I remember.
I think the key is that when you wake up, you have to relax a few minutes...and focus on what was happening before you woke up. If you wake up abruptly (alarm, someone calling you, etc.) and you move on to your daily tasks you forget a lot easier.

Sometimes i remember them from beginning to end, sometimes i do have a wierd feeling after i get up, but i dont remember what i really dreamt. Sometimes they are so real, that i cry myself aloud reacting to it. I open my eyes to reality to realize that my eyes are wet for real.

For a year I have never recalled a dream. That was when I was in a stressful situation in an unfamiliar place. Now, when I was able to get back to the life I am used to, I am now able to get my dreams back.

The dreams which I see in the morning hours I do remember but those I see at night I never remember.Yesterday I saw that I am in a church and someone is seeing a prayer of Jesus, though I am not a christian and that prayer was very sweet and was in hindi.

yeah i do sometime remember my dream but if someone wake me up before my dream is over,i'll suddenly forget about the dream that i had.There is one time that i had a nice dream that my chinese girl friend was going out with me and we had a nice date.But we were talking in the dream, suddenly my friends wake me up and i don't remember that anymore,just remember a little bit.

I remember my dreams in vivid detail. I have cycles of recurring dreams. Lately my dreams occur in a dilapidated house and I'm contemplating purchasing or renovating it. Sometimes I'm cleaning in my dreams.
A psychologist friend of mine told me that dreams have no meanings unless they're about your mother or umbrellas.

I will soon forget about the dream after I wake up.But if the dream is a nightmare or something about what I concern about in daytime I can say out the content about it.As time goes by,I will also forget it.I won't take it in my heart.
