This might sound funny but I've noticed that in the past 5 years or so I'm having a hard time remembering new information. (I don't smoke pot) lol..

But here's the strange thing. I dream at least 4 nights a week. Sometimes I can be sitting around or just walking and I remember random things that people told me, or something "I had to do". However I can never remember details or if this was a dream or if this actually happened in real life.

I feel like some thing a friend told me to do 4 days ago is some distant memory of a dream I had years ago. It has got me in hot water since I been forgetting little things here and there. Nothing to serious but I've noticed that it's getting worst.. I don't know what to attribute it to. I don't do drugs.. I'm the average social drinker.

Does anyone have this? Im not talking about the random "i forgot".. more like.. every week you can't tell if you dreamed or actually lived it.. :(

Sometimes I get dreams like that, but mostly my dreams (which are vivid and I have about 2 per night) are so weird and nonsensical that I can't mistake them for reality. Maybe having so many dreams is making you feel unrested and forgetful? I have sleeping pills because I have so many dreams I never fell as though I've been to sleep.

Same here. My dreams are so vivid and detailed yet so ridiculously inconceivable that I couldn't possibly describe them if I wanted to.

I rarely ever dream.
When I do they are, usually, all the same or similar.
Every dream of mine is in some concentration-camp or in a gas-chamber, then I get killed an the dream ends. Or I magically get out race away in a car which crashes falls in a river and I drown.

That and weird psychopatic stuff.

People dream every time they sleep. We just don't remember most of them.

I play a lot of shooting games, so some of the dreams I remember involve me running around all sorts of crazy places wielding all sort of weapons. Driving vehicles too. Although gravity seems a little bit fucked in my dream-world, since I find it really easy to jump ridiculous heights/distances in my dreams. I've even had dreams where I've been orbiting the Sun out in interplanetary space (without a spacesuit, even), where I ended up bumping quite hard into this probe/satellite-type object.

Also, since realising that I'm bisexual, sex dreams have become more awesome. :D

While most of the lucid dreams I have are super ridiculous, the ones I do have that are "normal" really do fuck with my sense of reality, and I get caught in spells where I just sit for like twenty minutes and think about how much of my last month really happened or what was just shit that i dreamt about. It got really bad when i was on chantix too, have you ever quit smoking with chantix?
