When you wake up do you remember all your dreams or you forgot all your dreams when you wake up?. when I wake up I usually remember 2-3 dreams. what I like when I'm dreaming is somehow I can control it, I can switch to another dream if I don't like it^_^. I just wish I can remember all my dreams when I rise from my bed.

I wish I could remember them, especially the really nice ones but I have not been blessed with such memory except for really crazy dreams such as the one where my husband who is a jail officer had applied as gasoline pump attendant. It was too funny not to remember .

Very interesting on how you can control your dreams, wish I can be like that as well, Anyway, I sometimes remember my dreams, especially if it is too vivid and clear, I especially like funny and adventure like dream of mine, really enjoying to remember it. There are also times that, although I tried so hard to remember my dreams, I quite forget it after waking up.

I also like funny and adventure dreams. I like it when I dream of being a superhero with an extraordinary powers :D. what I don't like is that sometimes when I run in my dreams, I run very slow I mean very very slow.

It is rare for me to remember a dream. Or I remember them all and do not dream very often. One or the other. However I wish I was able to recall my dreams. I often wonder what they are about. It would be nice to analyze them to see if they meant anything or just to see what my brain is doing when I am asleep.

Sometimes I remember what I dreamed of. But there are times that I forget and don't have the slightest idea what it was. Even though I got a feeling that it was a nice dream.

Sometimes I remember my dreams, sometimes I dont. There were times I woke up crying and those dreams I clearly remember. Sometimes I can control my dreams too, when I found out in my dream that it's just a dream, I manipulate it..

Sometimes I will remember what I dream about and sometimes I don't. I guess it really depends on the dream and what I am doing when I get up. On the majority though, I don't remember my dreams and the ones I do remember, I only remember parts of them.

I often remember my dreams and hope to tell someone early in the day. It seems to fade after a bit of time. I have heard that we should journal our dreams before we get out of bed. Perhaps that would help you. Personally I also know when I am dreaming so nothing in them scares me. So while I like horror films, my dreams only sometimes bring me something that could be scary. Sweet dreams my friend.

Study says you will remember some but not all and the part that your remember are your dreams that is close to awaken. Dreams are the images, thoughts and feelings experienced while sleeping, particularly strongly associated with rapid eye movement sleep. The contents and biological purposes of dreams are not fully understood, though they have been a topic of speculation and interest throughout recorded history. The scientific study of dreams is known as oneirology. I remember two of my dreams a day, but a part of it only, not all the scenes.

Well when I wake up I usally remember a lot of my dreams but then forget quickly unless if its good. Its weird I can picture it perfectly in my head but when I tell people about it I tend to forget a lot of it so I make stuff up lol I dont know why that happens.

No, but I wish I could!! The most annoying part is when I know I had a great dream, sometimes even with a great idea of something to do with my blog or something and I can only remember that I had a great dream but not any details about it. Usually the dreams I do remember are the really really weird ones LOL.

I can remember only a few dreams. They are the ones concerning my family and friends. Rest I usually forget except for a small blur of thoughts.

Yeah, when I wake up I can remember the main plots of my dreams most of the time. There was this one dream I had in which I was eating mashed potatoes for breakfast with a guy I really like, and so now whenever we have some leftover mashed potatoes, I eat them for breakfast. It's a special tradition now.

This can be done but requires constant practice. This is what we call lucid dreaming. This is a very wonderful skill to have. This can help a lot in the psychic development of a person.
