Question

Do you remember your dreams at the morning ?

Answer 1

Usually when it is a dream I like. Half of the time, I just remember dreaming of something and not remembering the specific.

Answer 2

Sometimes.

We actually have many dreams every night, but we can only remember the dreams that we awaken from. If we continue to sleep after the dream has passed we cannot remember the dream. Additionally, we have a hard time remembering very disorganized dreams because the brain has very rigid organizational patterns it looks for. If something does not conform to the brains understanding of normalcy, the brain often simply tosses that information and forgets about it.

I go through periods of more intense dream activity where I remember dreams more frequently and in greater detail. I don't know if many or most people share this pattern, but I suspect it is normal.

I try to remember dreams and to record them when they are interesting. It's just fascinating to do.
