Remembering Dreams

[=Lizzy]

Have you ever remembered a dream when you wake up?

I keep remembering them one was about Example, It was really strange. It was about how he came to my house and we went to Thorpe park together? I don't even like Example.

So anyway my question to you is have you ever had a dream that you have remembered the morning after?

omg, wish i dreamt of malfoy.
i know i dreamt but cant quite put my finger on it, i don't usually remember that i had a dream as soon as i wake up, maybe 10 minutes later and i only remember the actual dream if something reminds me of it

[Chris]

Sometimes I can briefly remember them, but as the day goes on I completely forget about them. :(

There is only one dream I remember vividly. From when I was 7, it was a dreadful nightmare at the time, but now I laugh about it.
But I usually remember in the morning, but unless it was funny/weird/interesting and I tell someone about it, I've forgotten it by lunch.

I remember most dreams. I remember most things to be honest.

i dont get this thread

is remembering dreams meant to be rare or something :S

[dbgtz]

The most recent one I remember is, despite after seeing something really nice and then something which has probably scarred me for life, I dreamt I was a character in eastenders and I remember reading how Jay gets hit by something so I imagined I was hit by a wrench in the head.

The one which will stick with me for my life is with spiders, however it was only a large spider silhouette with purple lighting. This was when I was 4/5 and I still remember it quite well.

Normally I only remember my dreams for a few minutes after I wake up and then it fades. Unless something later on in the day reminds me of it, then it comes back pretty clearly.

apparently so. i thought everyone remembered them hahahaha.

I don't tend to remember what I've dreamt about usually, or whether I've actually had a dream at all. But the dreams that are quite intense, say I wake up in the middle of the night and think I'm still in the dream or it's weird and scary and I wake up feeling weird or scared, I forget them when I wake up. But the craziest of things can trigger me to remember them, usually when I'm in mid conversation with someone else and I'll blurt out 'Omg I've just remembered this insane dream I had last night' and then I'll tell them but I forget about it after.

I hate it when I remember a dream and as I try to figure out details I slowly forget it, like the dream essence is seeping out of my ear lol :)

[Eric]

I remember some of my dreams. For a few hours then i forgot.

[brandon]

I remember a lot of dreams. I only really remember the details of what happened in my dream and not how it happened..I remember what the dream was about but I don't remember what anything looked like.

[GirlNextDoor15]

Erm yeah.. only some of them. not all of them.
I remember the dreams and after some time, I don't remember about it

[Muct]

i've had a dream that i was walking home from school and nicole scherzingers car had broken down and we became friends thats about the only one i can remember lmao

[Jesse2]

I never usually remember dreams because they're just so pointless and random. But there are certain dreams I always remember and even attempt to dream about again... If that's possible.

[Shar]

These past few days I've been having the most weirdest dreams, I wake up and I remember what happened for like 2 seconds then I forgot altogether :S

you normally remember dreams that happen during REM sleep and even then there is an optimal memory time of 7-8 minutes prior. After that it begins to fade. Just thought i'd put you out of your misery/fustration as to why you can't remember.

I was just gunna post this ;). And you normally have 7 dreams at night but obv can't remember them all because you forget them. The only dream you will remember is from your last REM sleep.

Anyway I had 2 nightmares that I will remember forever. I remember both of these so vividly like it wasnt a dream, just a memory of real life. In one i was on a deck of a boat (the boat was actually my toy boat but life size to a real boat) and it was infested with snakes and I couldn't get off the boat. Terrible. The other dream was that i visited a bank but it wasnt a normal one. People with no legs would 'walk' with their hands and open a vent thing in the bank and throw themselves down the shaft. I dunno where it went but it scared the **** out of me!

[Neversoft]

Yeah, I am often quite good a remembering my dreams. I still remember quite a few in great detail. If I have a really good dream then after I wake up I usually wirte it down so I'll never forget it lol. Yeah, I'm weird. I feel they could come in useful one day though. Perhaps inspiration for a book or something.

Most of the times I remember when I wake up but then I forget an hour later.

[Samantha]

I remember when I was really young dreaming I was on the toilet so I wet the bed lmao!

[Kyran]

It's weird, I used to not be able to remember my dreams at all, but recently my dreams have been really vivid and I could remember them when I wake up.

[despect]

When i was younger i never remembered any of my dreams but recently i remember quite a few of them, its quite weird :P.

[MKR&*42]

I remember most of my dreams...for like a week (I easily remember them in the morning). But my most unique/random and most...memorable dream I've ever had , would be...

. I woke up. (in the dream) and some weird scientist dude Had placed a "time bomb" on the bottom of my stairs...if it went off - the universe would implode. Sounds normal...sorta...so far. Then I found out that the only way to deactivate this bomb - was ..with a green gummy bear >_>

So later, I go to get this green gummy bear, but get wrestled by king kong - then break free -then run into my living room..and oh, it's Habbo Beach -.-

In the end I get to the bomb, put the green gummy bear in...and...freeze time forever <3

Weird dream >_>.
