Thread: delayed recall?

Oh yea, I've remembered dreams from the night before more than halfway through the day.

I'm not a regular LD'er though either so I dunno if this is a bad thing or not. I would assume it's better than nothing though.

That used to happen to me all the time. But not since I really started working on my dream recall or keeping a regular journal. Now I usually remember them right off the bat or not at all. Not that I know what this means, thought. I would not be worried about it at all.

Hi! Welcome to dream views I've been Lucid Dreaming for years, and my Dream Recall can work like this from time to time. Some days your mind is just going to be greedy, and not give your dreams up until later in the day. I wouldn't worry about it. If anything, it means you have great dream retention, but just need to move it to when you wake up Just keep with your dream journal and writing down anything you can recall when you recall it. Your progressing well though

Yup, this happens a lot to me and from what I've read seems fairly typical for people when they've forgotten dreams when they first wake up. It's why we always advice people to write down every little scrap of a dream they CAN remember... you never know when you're going to have a flashback later in the day and get another piece of the big old dream puzzle
