      Remebering 5-7 dreams a night

      Some people can remember 5-7 dreams a night, please tell me this is because you wake up during the night to perhaps remember 2, go back to sleep to perhaps remember another 3.

      Or is it 5-7 dreams without waking up at all.

      I think the highest I've recalled is about 8 in night (which does not count short bursts of 'false awakening loops', that last about 5-seconds each). I've found that, whenever I member a lot of dreams in one sitting, I usually have a hard time remembering many of the details, or the exact order in which things happened. It helps if I become lucid, though, sometime throughout the night, because I'll usually try to remind myself of what I'd been dreaming so far, while I'm still dreaming. It helps to retain the information until I wake up.

      The most I've recalled so far is 4, in two batches of 2.
      So I woke up in the middle of the night, recalled 2 and wrote them down (1 full dream and 1 fragment) and went back to sleep.
      I woke up in the morning and recalled another 2 and wrote them down (again 1 full and 1 fragment).

      I frequently recall 5 dreams a night, a few nights ago I recalled 7, because I wake up after each dream, I can record the precise time when dreams took place. By analyzing history of such dreams, I can see that they indeed appear to be from different sleep cycles. The quality of this recall is not superb, as writing down a detailed story after each awakening would wake me up too much. Within each dream, there may be multiple fragments or episodes that change and are not related to each other.

      Before I fall asleep, I can get attuned to a state where I spontaneously recall multiple dreams from past nights in rapid succession. I do not know what's the name for that, but this is what got me interested in dreaming in the first place.

      Here's what my dreaming pattern looked like about a week ago. Since then I started going to bed at a consistent time, and my dream recall improved even more.

      each green/gray marker is a dream. Blue markers are lucid dreams, each dream is reported upon awakening

      I think 7 is the most I've recalled. Tends to happen after a period of sleep deprivation.

      I've recalled 11 dreams last night over 11 hours of sleep. 8 were regular dreams, 3 were low level lucid and 2 were sexual. Zeo eeg headband recorded 4.5 hours of REM Sleep. Here's an overview of the night, including the supplements I took the day before. I wrote about those supplements, particularly Focus Smart before, but never had this kind of data to test their effectiveness. I also believe that Rice helps with lucid dreaming. : http://luciddreamingapp.com/appdata/...20part%202.pdf

      I recalled 8 from last night and wrote down 6, which I think is a record for me. But that was a shocking night's sleep where I woke every 45 minutes or so, so I imagine that helped cement each dream in my mind. Also they were quite fragmentory and trippy (or they are now upon recalling them, I think at the time they were more cohesive).

      It's impossible to say what counts as one or two dreams. If I dream about a forest and then some space station in the same REM-Period I would call it two dream scenarios.
      Because if I am not wrong you only have 3-4 REM-periods each night, and therefore it is impossible to remember SEVEN REM-periods or Dreams.

      However you can remember non-rem sleep as well of course which would make it possible.

      But when I recall my dreams I don't recall them in the morning. I wake up during the night and write keywords that help me remember when I write them down in my Dream Journal later on

      The amount of dreams isn't as important as the amount of awareness in the dreams.

      What I mean by that is that it's more productive to remember ONE dream where you remember the awareness of how you felt while dreaming and perhaps was more aware, than to remember TWENTY dreams where you were doing random things with no control or awareness at all.

      Yeah and you will have longer REM periods then as well.

      Remembering 7-8 separate dreams in one night, without waking up once in a while is quite hard to beleve. That's basicly all your dreams.. And i agree with Iapetos post completely. I remember 2-3 dreams per night, if i only have 8 hours of sleep atleast. Sometimes i will remember 1-2 more, but then i sleep longer, and im probably on a rem rebound at that time.

      All successful people men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.

      It's best to have failure happen early in life. It wakes up the Phoenix bird in you so you rise from the ashes.

      I'm not exactly sure how to count the dreams, but it's usually "one dream for every sleep," which means if I wake up in the middle of the night, the next dream is the second dream, and so on. But I think I never wake up close to seven times a night.

      Saying that, I've experienced having really long dreams (took several pages of my paper each) once in every few nights. Each dream's story doesn't seem coherent enough to say that it's "one" dream, but since I didn't wake up in between, I considered each as one dream. If I wake up in the middle of a dream and return, whether in the same dream story or not, I write it as "part 2" or a totally different dream altogether.
