Fragmented dream recall
I am a newbie, and have just started recording my dreams. The problem is that the recall I have is very fragmented. i get little snippets of dreams, and (this may not make sense) although the whole of the dream in context seems to make sense, the recording of it is very fragmented.
Does this matter at this point, or is the important thing the act of recording the dream, and the attempted recall? I appreciate the input. Thanks

That is normal to only remember fragments in the beginning. After a few days of recording the dreams, you should start having better dream recall.
If you remember only little snippets, write down what you do remember, even if it doesn't make much sense. If you only remember seeing an object, place or person, write that down and even describe it if you wish to.
That happens to me sometimes, but mostly I start remembering more of the dream as I write more of it down. Its like little mementos... when I wake up, I may only remember the last part of the dream, bus as I start describing that, I remember what happened before. Then as I start writing that, I remember more and so on.
The important thing is that even if you don't remember that much, you're still exercising your dream recall by writing the little pieces of dream. It really helps with dream recall more than anything. :) Hope that helps.
Ohh, and welcome to DV!!! Hope you have a wonderful stay. :cheers:
