I wish that I did regularly because I still get problems with my dream recall due to my lack of dscipline. I've been LDing or about two years now, and though I get LDs regularly, I only remember pieces because of my recall.
Of course I write my dreams down!
I think it would be cool to look back on them too.
Only sometimes, if I get the feeling that it was a particularly important dream. So far, I've never yet had one that really did turn out to be important.
I do. It's the only way I can remember them or have LDs. I did for about 4 months, then I stopped and didn't have any lucids for nearly a year. Now I force myself to, unless I'm gonna be late for school.
I sleep program everynight : that is control what I want to dream - so when I wake up the information requested, I got in my dream, so I write down for future reference :boogie:
I do every day. :)
I've been having a bad patch of recall recently. But hopefully I'm back into the swing of things now.
I do every day that I remember my dreams. My alarm clock makes that difficult, though. Hopefully waking up to classical music from now on will keep me from forgetting.
Whenever I start writing my dreams journal my dreams turn into nightmares. So I always must stop writing them down. I don't know why is this happening, but it is the main reason that prevents me from having my dreams regularly written down.
I don't usually record LD's, but if i have a normal dream that makes a reasonable amount of sense and has a storyline, i'll write that down. Basically if they don't cover about 2 pages they aren't worth writing (thats typed btw). So i only have about 4 recorded...
I started to last year. Drifted off (got frustrated with the lack of success) but have just started up again.
I try..I am human so I am not perfect.Quote:

I record my dreams. Depending on my recall of them, if it's a clear recall I won't go into much detail, if it's not clear I'll go into as much detail as possible.
i dont because if i do someone is going to go into my room and read it
No, but I definitely should...
Amazingly not for me. I am normally not interested in any dreams, apart from the really significant ones about something that has, is happening or may happen in my life, I write those down.
Yeah. I write down any dreams I remember long enough to write down, or more often type. It's difficult to remember long enough to write when using an alarm, but my recall gets really bad when I don't keep a journal.
As for a lot of people here being interested in dreams, it is a lucid dreaming forum.
You totaly should, Not only helps recall, but then you can see what may be a dreamsign for you.Quote:

I try to write them down regularly, but lately my level of recall has been less than admirable. I usually enjoy typing dreams down, but as of late, I get bored halfway through and stop, eventually forgetting the rest of the dream.
Either way, keeping a DJ will make for an interesting read one day in your distant future, when you stumble across it and are immediately drawn into your past dreams, still remembering with clarity exactly what happened in your sleepy little head oh so long ago.
Unless of course you've got a terrible long-term memory. Then you're boned. :P
I have great memory..But when it comes to dreams it is very bad.
So the notebook helps and I have to admit, they are cool to read through after awhile.

I've had a few different DJ's in the last few years. I've just started my 3rd a couple weeks ago, and man I can sure remember a lot more dreams than I had been able to. It's definately the first step in becoming a serious dreamer heh.
I do most the time but sometimes I'm just too lazy or can't because of school...
That reminds me, I need to get my dream recall up, it's only been about 1 dream per night lately.:eek:
I did for two months but it was taking way too much time in the morning as my dreams are usually long and detailed and I have several. I was keeping it by hand and have them in a notebook. I think I might try again sometime, but try to type instead.
Dream diaries are a good idea actually. You write your sweetest/coolest dreams in them, then whenever you need an emotional boost, look back on the book and imaaaaaagiiiiineeeee....... :? :( :embarrassed:
a keep a journal, but my recall is so bad, i only remember about 1 in 9 dreams
Written, no, stopped years ago when realized how huge they were... it was so boring to write them <.<
Online, yes, just started and its far faster this way.
Then again, keeping a journal or not has never affected my recall, so its just for fun.
I try to. It helps me so much with recall.
Yes. It's interesting. And hopefully it will help me get lucid.
