Hi Karen!
Good Discussion!
I usually see dreams and dreams in my sleep (otherwise I am day dreamer also
). If any dream is bizzare I do not forget it easily atleast when I get up in the morning and I do see unusual and bizzare dreams. However, I do not note them down anywhere. I am not sure if remembering our dreams or noting down them down really heop solve us some issue. But I understand that dreams are symbolic and we see them so that our hidden desires in our sub-consious mind could come out, when we are fast asleep. It is a way of letting our pent up emotions come out, which otherwise may not be possible during day time. I just forget those dreams
the next day. I am not aware if some people keep a diary of their dreams by noting them down.

Hopefully, those books would be quite interesting. I have not read any such book so far. Would like to read, whenever I get a chance.

This is a good idea Karen. I think I should start doing it from now on. I hardly remember my dreams and sometimes I remember them after a long while but fail to recollect the whole dream and also when did I see it exactly.
Keeping a chronology of our dreams is a great idea. Some dreams are beautiful and i want to remember them forever. But the ones which are bleak, I would rather forget.

I can remember some of them, but I never write it down, I will tell my friend or my sister about my dream, if the dream is a funny one, I will share the dream to my friend, if the dream is about my family, I will tell my sister about that, but sometimes I know I have a good dream last night, but I just forget the dream.

Hello there.
Well in my case I do remember my dreams most of the time but not always.There are some dreams which I remember for a long time but some are just forgotten the moment I get up.
Also,writing dreams down is something I have never really tried doing and have never even thougtht of doing.The concept is totally new to me and have for the first time heard someone writing down dreams.It's interesting actually and I may try it out sometime.

Hello PeacefulWmn9, I rarely remember my dreams. Last night/early this morning I did remember what I was dreaming about. My b/f reads dreams so I will be telling him about what I dreampt.It was a vivid dream so I have to give the details to him so he can give my reading.

I don't write journal about dreams, but i do remember certain things in my dreams - especially when it goes on like Deja Vu. You know, you go to some places and then you remember you have seen this place in your dream couple of days/weeks ago, and to make it worse, you know which way to go? Thats what i mean.
I also tend to write notes if in my dreams i am flying, because some of the time the places i visited in my dreams while flying was not yet visited, and after that i've explained to you on the first part.

A friend of mine actually purchased me a dream diary a few years back. I used to keep it by my bed and record the weird scary dreams I had.
It is so interesting to look at the crazy avid dreams that we think up when we are sleeping.
I highly suggest writing them down, they make for an interesting read later.

Well, Sometimes I remember my dreams and sometimes I forget. I never write them down. Sometimes I try to remind what I have dream but I cannot remember then I feel very bad. I never did that you asked here. Well, even if I want to remember any dream I forget but one of my dreams, I have not forget, it is still stored in my mind.

I remember about half my dreams...? I find that if when I wake up and I go over the dream in my head I will remember it quite vividly but I have never written them down before. I also find sometimes that half way through the day something happens that sorta jogs my memory - and a dream will come flooding back that way. I quite enjoy my dreams, the are usually quite bizarre. I am always amused at what my head comes up with when I dream.

For awhile, I wrote down my dreams when I woke up. I heard you can have your dreams interputed if you right them down. But I n ever did that and I quit after a few weeks. I do remember them more when I first wake up. But no, writing them down did not help me in any way.

I don't remember the dreams always, but sometimes. I think if we see a dream almost dawn then we can remember it. I had a bad dream yesterday also. I have never written down any of my dreams. I think it is a good idea to write down dreams. After long time when you go through that, it will be fun. Thanks for the idea. Today onwards I decided to write down my dreams.

There are dreams that I can vividly remember but I don't write them down. Sometimes I wonder what the dream mean, especially when it's about the people I know. It usually stays in my mind for a couple of days and then sooner or later I would forget about it.

I have kept dream journals since I was about 15. There are some great sites on line to find out what your dreams mean. Did you know that your dreams only really last about 15 to 25 seconds and not 30 minutes like the feel like. It is our brain playing a trick on us to help us sleep.
