Lately, seems like I remember my dreams most of the time. But actually before, it doesn't seem to be like that. I remembered that I dreamt but I didn't exactly know what happened in the dream. Anyways, what about you guys? Do you remember your dreams?

I tend to remember my dreams. Asides from that, when I wake up usually the first thing that I do is jot down my dreams in a notebook that I keep right beside my bed. Sometimes I remember a lot about my dreams and otherwise it tends to be little details or events and that's it.

I wonder why you jot down and keep a record of your dreams.

no. i dont know why but i no longer remember what my dreams was when i wake up in the morning. sometimes i wake up remembering it and sometimes i dont have anything at all. or sometimes i have no dreams. dreams are said are like frustrations and expectations of what you want with your life. when you dream your mind is not at rest when you sleep. i dont know if that is the way you explain that.

Hey roni! nice new avatar Yeah, I guess it was something like that. Considering some of my dreams, it was definitely from my frustrations, lol. Thanks for the response.

dont mind my avatar. lol. yes more of frustrations or depressions. i dont say that i dont have but maybe i am so tired that when i sleep all i remember is what i am going to do when i wake up. some people look for dream interpretation to know the hidden meaning of those dreams.

I usually don't remember my dreams. I may remember the occasional dream once in a while, but that's pretty much it. But lately, i too have been remembering my dreams more. I won't remember the entire dream, but I will remember bits and pieces of it, and that's pretty much it. I'm not sure why I'm remember a lot of more of my dreams than before.

Sometimes, I think that we dream of things that we think too much or things about our subconscious mind. Thanks for your response, grace!

Most of the time no. I would always know that I have dreamt of something but would end up not actually remembering the details of the dream. There are actually good dreams which I would be glad to remember all the days, but I just can't. This usually happens when something like a clue would pop up in your head and you know that thing is related to something happened in your recent dreams. You would end up trying to think it out what was that latest dream you had.
But one thing I really find amazing how dreams happenend is that there are certain times when you actually physically involved during your dream. The most prevalent depiction of this is that when I dream about slipping into something like a banana peel may be, my feet always react and would actually lead to me waking up in the midst of the dream.
Do you guys have experience that?

Yeah, it was really funny how our body reacts when we're dreaming. My brother even sleep talk and I know sleep talking is some kind of sign for some sleep disorder or something but sometimes, I just could help but laugh when all of a sudden he talks though he's asleep. Thanks for the response

Most of the time I don't remember my dreams. I may remember part of it but not the whole thing. But every once in awhile I'll remember most of it.

Hey brendalee! Yeah, it was strange that sometimes we only remember some parts, weird. I wonder why is that so. Thanks for the response.

I tend to remember my dreams pretty well. I don't have many issues not remembering them. However I do have my moments where I remember them for awhile and as the day goes on, it gets a bit harder to remember what I dreamt about the night before. Sometimes I end up forgetting the dream completely if I don't talk about it right away. It doesn't bother me much. Dreams aren't something that need to be remembered really. It's just your bodies way of coming to terms with events.

I seldom remember my dreams. When I am still lying down, I still remember my dreams but once I out of my bed, I completely forget my dreams. Funny but true.

Sometimes, something that happens while I'm awake will trigger me to remember part of a dream, but for the most part I don't remember dreams. They are gone the minute I wake up. I hate when I wake up and know it was a good dream, but can't remember what it was! LOL. :D

Hey corty! That was funny, you know it was a good dream but you didn't remember what it was, lol Strange that sometimes it was just parts of a dream that we remember.

Oh,sometimes.
I never intend to remember my dreams.
But in some situation,I would suddenly remember them.Like get up from the bed,or in the evening,or when i do some certain things,then i suddenly remembered that i had a dream about this before.There is no sign that i remember them or forget them.They just stayed in my mind.
And you know what,my dreams are usually very funny.I do wanna to record them somtimes.

never i do not think they even happen, my wife wkes up everyday and say she dreamed this or that. I have nothing if it is happening i am missing it. My wife says if i could come out of sleep and write a couple notes down it might job my memory. I do not come out of sleep and really dont want to. If the dream is going on my eyes are closed, weird huh

yes, because my dreams are always recurring, or sometimes in the middle of my sleep while dreaming, i wake up and sleep again, my dream continues... and i usually dream of those things that i am going to do when i wake up,,which makes me sleep more, because i am thinking that i am already awake..

Sometimes I remember my dreams, but lately I am in the same boat as you in that I knew I dreamt but have not remembered them. I guess I have to put a notepad besides my bed and write it down. The trouble is that my writing is so illegible that I would not be able to read it and I do not want to talk into my digital recorder because I will wake up my husband. Most of my dreams are boring anyway and not that worth while remembering.

I usually vividly remember my dreams. There are few times that I don't remember dreams. I think it is when they are really funny or weird I really remember them.

Sometimes I remember them, most of the time I can't. I'll be dreaming about something right before I wake up, then when I wake up I try to remember what I was dreaming about and I can't, its weird, its like I forgot just like that..haha.

For the past couple of nights, I been remembering my dreams. Friday night, I dreamed that my cousin had 6 babies. 4 girls and 2 boys. I remember carrying the baby boy to her. She didn't name any of her kids yet. That same night, I dreamed that I was on a tropical beach with my friends and my boyfriend. I want to go back to that dream =).
