Have you ever remembered a dream well after you ever dreamed it?

I recently had this "vision" come to me and a dream just instantly replay in my mind that I know happened, literally, months ago! Does anyone else suddenly realize what their dreams have been, even long after they've dreamed them?

I had reoccuring dreams when I was in my youth. Each time I had this one particular dream, something about it would change. It came to a point when the dream became a movie that I was narrating. It still frightened me, but not as bad as it did in previous times.

Yes I dreamed when I was 4 years old in 1979 about a big grey room full of cubicles like in office buildings today.In every one of the cubicles was a box with a thing you had to move around to cause images on the screen part of the boxes to move around.To "work", you know.These weird boxes were used in office work. I was about 10 or so when I learned that those boxes with screens were COMPUTERS! Get it? I dreamed of BIG ROOMS with hundreds of cubicles with COMPUTERS in them in the 1970'S! WHY would I see computers as a BABY?????? Kicker: I never saw this on TV, ever!Or anywhere else for that matter!!

i remember some from years ago and one i will never forget. I was once wakened from a dream by my alarm clock and i was watching the scene unfold in front of me. I was watching an articulated lorry run out of control through the village in which i live. It carriered through the main street, through the wall and came to a rest in the river at the far end of the street. Imagine the shock when my motherinlaw called to tell me the village was blocked off as a large lorry had crashed through the wall and was on its side in the river, exactly as i had dreamed it

I don't think I've ever dreamed anything that I already did. I usually have very vivid dreams and remember them when I wake up. Sometimes they are boring, but other times, they are really good ones! I don't very often have bad dreams... but sometimes I'll have very frustrating dreams. Usually that is when I'm under a lot of stress... then I'll wake up and be even more stressed because I'm frustrated over a dream.

Yes, I do remember a lot of my dreams. I remember a lot of the bad ones. I used to have one dream about 3 to 4 times a week. It was really weird.

This phenomenon what you are experiencing is having a termiology, which presently I am unable to recall. which gives you an impression as if you have either experienced the present thing in the past or in your Dreams some time back! It is a perfectly normal thing in a normal and healthy individual. And every human being passes through this phase some time or other in his lifetime. As far as the remembering the dreams, some dreams leave a permanent impressions on your mind and some are simply vanish the moment you get up. I normally try toremember them, which I personally feel that , one can acive by a little practice. But inspite of that many a times I fail to recollect the dream which I had a night before. But surprising part is I start recollecting the about the dream during the state next night when I am just about to enter the state of sleep. This suggests that we need to take our minds to the state where we left with the dreams to recollect them ! I think with this you can paracticeand recollect your immidiately dreamt dreams, if not remembering them, which any way is a difficult task for many of us! Best of Luck!

You're not thinking Deja Vu are you? Because I'm not meaning that. It's not that I feel like I've experienced it before, it's a sudden recollection of a dream that I had and it comes in clear and vivid memory but days or even weeks later. Just weird, because normally I don't recall my dreams well. These recollections are not while sleeping, I'm completely awake and it just comes to me.
