I was listening to a BBC program about dreaming a few days ago, and someone was talking about how if you remember lots of dreams, that means that you're having disturbed, lower-quality sleep than someone who never remembers their dreams. How true is this? |

I dont think its 100% true but i have heard you only remember a dream if you wake up whilst you were dreaming. |

I disagree, from what I have observed, dream recall has no effect on how well I sleep. It's the oposite, How well I sleep affects recall. When I had good recall, I was sleeping the best I had ever slept, the only problem was remembering them throughout the day, as 4 medium dreams is a lot, adn I couldn't write in the morning/didn't want to lose sleep for recall. |

I was told that when your dreams are disrupted then you have a higher chance or remembering them, as they dont just faid away well you sleep. It sometimes happens to me when my alarm goes. |

This is absolutely 100% true. |

This sounds like BS. One way that this is false is that your sleepiness has a lot to do with a mental aspect. If you've had bad dreams, you probably feel like crap in the morning. With good dreams, you are probably feeling perky and dandy. If you remember the good dreams, you are more likely to be more awake and feel better. |

I find my recall is best when I have fragmented sleep, waking up in between each dream (or REM cycle) as Nowhereman said. I may not be getting as much solid sleep as I would if I had slept for the whole period of time, but I feel it is more often than not a higher quality of sleep when I have it fragmented with lots of remembered dreams. Some may see it as disturbed sleep, but I feel very rejuvinated after a good night of dreaming. |
