Especially since you don't necessarily start dreaming as soon as you doze off. There really is no way to tell, unless you are just pro at telling time in your head. And even that is questionable, because of time dilation and gaps in memory.

I had a WILD that was one continuous dream and I woke up when I got a text a little over an hour later. I assumed a WILD initiated dream started directly from the waking state..

But, I believe a little over an hour.

It is difficult to tell. My longest was probably about 15-20 minutes (subjectively), but it may have been more like an hour. There was some kind of adventure that I was never able to completely remember, but it might be because the dream plot skipped. I could only remember the 15 minutes or so with much clarity.

But you can, when I wake up during the night, check the time then go back to sleep. Always do a +-10 minute gap when I wake up again to see how long the dream was like. So, using that method, the longest would be 1:30 hours.

Yeah, unless you WILD.
