Thread: Any Tips on how to get your brain to WAKE up enough to write your dreams down?

I was just about to say "samething happened to me, and now I don't remember one of them." but as I was typing the whole thing came back!
Thanks!

Do you wake up in the middle of the night? If so,
which light are you using, bright, dim, or none.

1 tip I would recommend is to never give up, soon your brain will get used to staying awake. If you're lazy(like really lazy), just write down little notes on the dreams u remember.

Thanks everyone. Lately Ive been writing them down =D. BTW I sleep with a brightish dim light

I also find myself go through periods of being too lazy to write anything down, even when i remember a dream quite well i will tell myself i need to lye perfectly still to remember everything and before i know it im asleep.

Luckily i have noticed this cycle and have broken it by as soon as the thought of 'i need to relax to remember more' i will give myself a nice firm slap across the face to remind me its worth all the effort in the end.

I have the same exact problem, I am too lazy to jot a few things down. I replay the dream in my head several times before going to bed, hoping that I will recall it in the morning, but that does not always happen. Part of it is that i dont want to wake my girlfriend either, messing around with lights and such..

Oh so you DON'T have to write down the whole story, just the key things then? But what if your dream signs are subtle things? Does that mean you'll miss them?
