Thread: Powerless Dreams?

I found out that I have a weird way of remembering my dreams... I sleep for about 8 hours, get woken up, and go back to sleep for about an hour, and I have around 3 dreams within that hour.

I wonder if I actually had those 3 dreams that hour, or I just remember the ones I had during my 8 hour sleep?

Either way, my dream recall becomes so realistic. I close my eyes after waking up, and I can clearly see all the details of my dream.

Most likely, you are remembering the last dreams you had in that hour before waking. Though I have, on a few occasions, remembered dreams that were hours apart. Like I wake up early in the night from a dream, and then again in the morning, and I can remember both dreams. I don't DJ, so this was mental memory. Rare, but not impossible.

Same here... As long as I woke up after the dream, I remember it when I wake up in the morning. But I do keep a DJ... However, I write in it sometimes in the afternoon and I still remember everything, but that's only if I spend like 20 minutes in my bed trying to remember everything, and I'm always missing some parts...

Ah thanks guys for clearing this up, because I had big doubts when it came down to having another set of dreams in just one hour.

Makes more sense this way, although still possible the other way.

I found out that if you nap whenever your body is begging for sleep (for me around 7 pm, I take a 15 minute to 1 hour nap and feel amazing), and then when I go to sleep at around midnight, I wake up and I felt like I had an extreme second wind experience whilst sleeping.

Never hurts to try it out for yourselves.

I'll have to try and happy that everything's better for you
