[attachmentid=257]Hey! I am having trouble with dream recalling. It's easy for me to remember what I have dreamt, but the only problem is that it feels as if keeping a dream journal is a waste. Is it realy nesassary to keep a dream journal? I can realy remember my dreams easily and I have no problem with dream recall. what is the point of keeping a dream journal? Isn't it kind of laim? I almost never write in my dream journal. I am too tired to write my dreams down when I wake up. I just want to go back to sleep. |

That's exactly the attitude one needs to fight to do effective reality checks. |

I just posted a topic on my crappy dream recall. And when I say crappy dream recall, I mean only remembering like one dream every two or three months. I decided to get a dream journal a little over a week ago and I still had no results for the first few days. Last night was the first dream that I had remembered quite a bit about in probably two months or more!! I feel that it definetely was a success. I was very skeptical too, but just try it. |

I had a horrible time with recall as well, only remembering truly horrible nightmares and suchlike. I started a dream journal on here, but when it became too much of a burden, I gave up on it. I still do journaling about half the time, privately. The point is that I can usually remember at least one dream per night now - and if I am actively keeping a journal, I can remember three plus! |

dream journals directly relate to my lucid dreams, so yes, it helps a lot. when I am good with my dream journal my dreams become more vivid and longer. and the more vivid they are the easier it is to become lucid. I can have a lucid dream every night potentionally when I keep up with my journal |

I have to say Scar that I have always felt pretty much the same way you do about dream journals, but my view is changing. |

I don't have trouble with recall unless I have something urgent to do the next day (cutting sleep at 6 hours with an alarm clock for class almost always makes me forget everything). I didn't notice any improved recall or lucidity either when I was recording everyday. I agree with you juroara that recording mounds of detail gets tiresome, especially when I drift in and out of many dreams late morning. Interrupting each time to write down more would start to wake me up too, I rather relax and try to continue. |
