My friend recently told me that she has been having dreams that she cannot remember but wakes up crying...does anyone else experience this?
Yes this has happen to me..
it depends ont eh content of the dream
I've only woke up in extreme anger due to a dream before, i was angry all day!
Never woke up cryin tho, but i have woke up feeling like i wanted to !
Welcome to the forum!
Wow, that's quite strange. I've never heard of that before. Maybe if she used self-suggestion to remember what her dream was about, she might be able to find a link between the crying and dream.
That happened to me a few times some years ago when I had depression. I don't know enough about her to say if that's the case, but maybe she is suppressing negative feelings?
Yeah, it's happened to me before, though I usually remember the dream. Probably she's just having dreams where she's working through bad past experiences, while at the same time just having poor dream recall. She could try to improve her recall but maybe there's a reason her subconscious is trying to keep it blocked for now. Might not be a horrible idea for her to check it out with a therapist.
Hope she gets it all sorted out. :)
I also expererience moved on feelings. For example, in my dream my mom was trying to force me to move away from my home town. For the next day i had angry feelings toward her.. anyone else?
My mom has had several times where she wakes up crying. She told me she'll have a dream about either me or my little brother dying, and she'll wake up in tears. Also, when my mom was pregnant with my little brother, she constantly had nightmares about miscarriaging, and she would wake up in a tear-soaked pillow. :cry:

I haven't actually woken up crying, but I've had dreams that have made me cry during the dream, or even after if I think back on it. I've woken up frustrated before, and stayed frustrated for several hours (there seems to be a theme here).
Yeah, that happened to me once. I was dreaming (not a LD) about a dinosaur that could grow or shrink (wierd!) and when I woke up, i was willing to sacrafice all of my posssesions (and maybe a few of my friends) and then cried for about 30 mins. But that was 2 years ago and i havent had any others since then.
