I just quit smoking (for the second time in 7 years) and am getting help with "the patch". I remembered having wicked dreams the last time I quit and I don't know if it's a withdrawl side effect or patch induced. Anyhow, sure enough the vivid dreams returned so the next day (yesterday) i searched for info on dreams and found this site. As others, I have had freaky dreams that have awed me in the past (flying included), and would really like to explore this thrill some more. Last night I tried the journal thing and though I did awake several times after dreaming...i was too lazy to write it down so I just repeated the facts in my head. (I actually dreamt that I wrote them down but didn't). I'm looking forward to visiting dreamland again tonight and welcome any advice you might want to share.
