Hi, and welcome to dream views why not try setting your alarm clock to go a few hours earlier then usual, or taking vitamin B6 supliments? also, try to set an intent to remember, telling yourself it would be nice to do so, as well as telling yourself you will any dreams you do remember write down imediatly. this will help set your mind in a way to remember dreams good luck, and enjoy your stay

everyone has dreams, but not all remember. every person has a dream period then 1.5 hr break, and that is a cycle. to increase your dream recall, you should start a dream journal. write anything you remember. ANYTHING. also, count how many minutes are in a rem and in beetweenthem and wake up during REM periods. just don't give up and keep trying. welcome to the forum!

hey guys i RARELY have a dream so if anyone oculd explain why and help me have a dream[/b] Hello HNX. Welcome. Actually we all dream. It is just that many times we do not recall them. This could be from a number of reasons. It is normal to forget our dreams. By writing down your dreams that youdo remember in a journal, helps your memory by bringing those illusory dream thoughts to the forefront of your mind. If you cannot recall any dreams, bad sleep habits or sleep apnea, alcohol or Marijuana can all hamper your ability to remember your dreams. Often by a simple auto suggestion you can help to begin ti remember more of your dreams. Simply say to yourself before sleep -- I am going to remember my dreams. Repeat that again and again.

wow thank you very much everyone ok from now on imma tell myself to remember my dreams and Where Can I Find Vitamin B6, What is it for?

[Keeper]

well, it occourse naturally in bananas, but you should be able to get some at your local chemest or grocery store. basicly, it is changed into seratonin in your brain, doing something to the pathways in your mind. It generally makes dreams more vivid, thus making them easier to remember you shouldn't OD on them, though, because to much can cause nerve damage (sort of like salt )

Well, not necissarily nerve damage. Its not permanent. B6 is a vitamin, so even if your a minor, you can pick it up at your local drug store or pharmacy. B6 is not officially for the dream mind, but many have found that it works wonders for dream clarity. However, B12 is what you want for memory. Pick up some of that, it really helps memory I hear. Welcome to dreamviews! Sit down, stay a while

Taken from my Physiology of Sleep FAQ: Vitamin B6: Vitamin B6 is a group of substances pyridoxine, pyridoxal, and pryidoxamine) that are widely distributed in animal and plant tissues. These substances are involved in the metabolism of amino acids (the building blocks of protein) and in the breakdown of glycogen (a stored sugar). Vitamin B6 is found in liver, pork, chicken, fish, and whole grains. A deficiency can result in functional disturbances of the nervous system. Pyridoxine is essential in the conversion of amino acids to carbohydrates or fats for storage or energy, the synthesis of new amino acids from carbohydrates, and the conversion of the amino acid tryptophan to niacin. Vitamin B6 provides a role in the development of most protein-related compounds including hormones, neurotransmitters such as serotonin, hemoglobin in red blood cells, and many enzymes. QUOTE(www.anyvitamins.com) The dosage underneath is the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), but be aware that this dosage is the minimum that you require per day, to ward off serious deficiency of this particular nutrient. In the therapeutic use of this nutrient, the dosage is usually increased considerably, but the toxicity level must be kept in mind. Males 2 mg per day and females 2 mg per day. For those who feel depressed, or any symptons of depression (lack of self-confidence, loss of will to do anything, loss of desire to wake up, consistently sleeping, etc. etc.) I recommend taking Vitamin B6 or trying to incorporate more food that involve this vitamin before seeking professional help.
