i do not have any clue if this has been discused on the boards or not and im juat flat out confused. but i was wondering..some where on the site it said some people say they have dreamless sleep and they do have dreams they just dont remember them.. i do have dreams and sumtimes i cant remember them, i no that as a fact, but a good portion of my sleep is just like black or i dont no how to describe it.. but its like just blank.. so i guess my question is Do you dream the entire time you are asleep.. or just during REM? bc im pretty shure i got the REM dreams down, im just curious what the blankness is, Did i forget, or am i just not dreaming at that part? sorry for the long post! GO FIRST THREAD! and thanks for reading/helping/ or just acknowledging me!

We dream not only in REM, but those dreams arn't as vivid as the ones we have during REM, most of the dreaming happens in REM though, and I garintee you theres no one that doesn't dream each night, exept if they sleep for like an hour or something.

no problem, I remember my older brother (who tought me how to LD about 10 years ago) told me I had almost 10 dreams each night don't know if thats true but it wouldn't suprise me.

You are more likely to remember a dream in the longer phases of REM sleep, which occur closer to your waking up time. Are you keeping a dream journal? If not, i suggest you start one as soon as possible, as this is proven to aid recall. You'll soon find that within a couple of weeks you'll be remembering a lot more! I keep my dreamjournal in a little notebook, and then write them into the dream journal feature on the board. I'll post the link! http://www.dreamviews.com/forum/viewforum....893fd74fed65563

i know that when i wake up i had about 5 dreams but normally i can only remember about 1 or 2 of them fully.. if even, i dont know it varies. I used to keep a dream journal before i got into dreams really but then i just stopped. I started up again last night in my same old notebook, but when i woke up this morning i couldn't really remember any of my dreams.. aw well.. either way im starting again.. i just wish there was a way to wake up after each dream and remember it perfectly and be able to write it down.. i tried the mehtod on the site and it didnt work for me =/ edit: I am going to keep trying it however. =)
