I have been able to recall in detail my dreams for a solid week!: each night I remember a dream, and they are all awesome. I can actually recall making decisions in the dreams (even though I haven't realized that I was dreaming yet) I feel like I am so close to the AHA! moment where I will be like "Wait Im dreaming!" They have all been good dreams that I have enjoyed, even though they were weird. They have all had one common theme, I have been doing strange things with friends from school. Not the same friends each night, but the common theme has been I have been with friends from school each night for about a week and that has led to vivid dreams.

Here are some weird questions to go with this:

1)even though I am aware I am with friends, I cant ever recall seeing their faces, I just recall seeing people, but never their exact faces...this is weird because I know exactly who I was with, but I just dont remember ever actually seeing them specifically. are there any reasons behind this?

2)I have been taking nyquill(sp?) and/or melatonin each night where I have these dreams, could there be a link between vivid dreams and nyquill/melatonin??? I work at GNC and have heard of people complaining of nightmares while taking melatonin so thats actually why I decided to take it in the first place.

3)on most of the nights this week I have tried to lay very still before going to bed like I am trying to wild but then I just let myself drift off to sleep because I have been too tired to wild due to school. I was just wondering
Is it even possible to wild before falling asleep or would I not be close enough to REM sleep?? (Since its the weekend Ill prob go to sleep around 1 tonight and I would like to try to wild before I fall asleep)

Thanks to any answers in advance I hope an LD happens soon!!!!!
