dream stuff

[Muddled]

I hate remembering my dreams. How do you people handle this on a regular basis ?

Why do you hate remembering them? Mine are always weird.

This is why.

I used to keep a dream journal beside the bed and would write in it as soon as I woke up so I wouldn't forget the dream. Other methods include going over the dream again and again in my head and also telling someone about it as soon as I can.

Ditto doglove. I used to keep a dream journal by my bed and would write any dreams down that I remembered.

Lately, I've only been remembering how I felt in the dream--not any details.

I had a dream on Monday that my hair was rainbow colored and sparkly!

I remember my dreams almost every night. My Mom suggests I keep a dream journal but I keep forgetting to put a notebook by my bed.
Mine are weird, too, but I like remembering them, even if they aren't pleasant. I like to focus on the various colors in the dreams and what I am wearing.

Most of the dreams that stick with me are weird or scary and I don't like that. I couldn't deal with remembering all of my dreams either.

I usually remember the really weird or really intense ones, but I do forget them if I don't tell anyone quickly enough. Sometimes I remember good ones, too, though!

It also has to do with how deep of a sleep and what stages of REM you are, as to whether you can actually remember dreams.

[gault]

I lucid dream, so most of the time I can sort of control stuff or have a vague idea that this is bullshit.

The dreams are still super weird, though. I get you.

[Muddled]

Until the past two weeks, I think I've remembered maybe 4 dreams in my life.

Muddled, is your sleep more disturbed since getting KU? When you have a less restful sleep you're more likely to remember your dreams because you don't get out of REM cycles the way you used to.

Nope. I've never slept well.

I had a dream on Monday night where I was in this Zombie game that H and I have been playing on PS4. I was fighting them with H and i got a slight bite. I knew I was going to becomes a zombie and woke up sobbing that I was going to loose him, my brain everything. I told H that morning about my dream when we woke up and he goes... you wouldn't loose me.. I'd keep you Shaun of the Dead style, back in the woodshed and I'd come visit you. It made me laugh but the emotions from the dream were making me feel awful.

Shaun of the Dead!  Best B movie EVAR!

I had one last night with the kids and some friends from work in it. We were in a house (not our current one), and storm blew up and brought a tornado with it. It was big. I was carrying DS#2, sent the others to the basement and ran back with DS#2 to grab our SS cards and birth certificates. We all managed to get to shelter, but then I woke up.

I wasn't scared at all, just determined and confident.
