In the 3rd millennium BCE, Mesopotamian kings recorded and interpreted their dreams on wax tablets. In the years since, we haven't paused in our quest to understand why we dream. And while we still don’t have any definitive answers, we have some theories. Amy Adkins reveals the top seven reasons why we might dream.

Don’t u hate it when u are in the middle of a perfect dream then u wake up and try to close ur eyes but still can’t find the dream?
Me who closes eyes and dreams 5 times: haha me go sleep dream
yeh lol.I always say "hey i want to see what happens next!" ;-;
always
Minh Thư yah
I would often go back to sleeping because I wanted to go back to the dream that I was having.
It sometimes works.
One time when it worked, I said to the friend in my dream, ‘ I’m back. ‘
Do you ever forget a dream, and just randomly remember it in the middle of the day
oh my gawd are you a mind reader?
Yeah and firt I thought it was part of my real life then in the middle of the day I realize it's just a dream
@@human1258 IKR
Yup
OMG YES
Does anyone else have a dream so realistic that when you wake up you feel sad it wasn't reality
I recently moved overseas, I had to move away from all my friends and family. I once had a dream that I moved back. It felt so real that I cried when I woke up and realized it was fake.
i dreamt of getting an iphone and i knew it was a dream but i still hoped that it wasn't and i held on to the iphone and then when i woke up it was just a dream.
I usually wake up from dreams with a feeling of relief. Say I slapped my sister in the face in my dream, id wake up and say "Phew, just a dream. Dont have to apologize"
Lol I thought that you were going to quote the matrix.
Of course , Everyone must have experienced it quite often.
Sometimes I just can't differentiate whether the things I have said were in dream or in real life....
For some reason, once something funny happened to me, and it was late at night and I was tired.
And so when I woke up in the morning, I was about to say "Hey, wanna know something funny that happened in my dream?"
but that thing happened in real life lol.
For some reason, I remembered this after seeing your comment.
Yeah it happened to me too
Yeah, I've been there too..... LoL
Yeah same
god sometimes I think that I'm dreaming, when I'm in real life, those sucks.
It's strange how you can't imagine a face yet when you dream your brain has perfect detail..
Every face you see when you're asleep you have seen at some point when awake.
And dreams feels so real
And things that doesn't even make sense in real life makes sense in dream world
MrSuus try lucid dreams they’re insane
@@shaanajaz8541 I've been trying to lucid dream for so long but it just doesn't work
Has anybody ever had a dream where they know they're having a dream?
Hana Ahmed ya
I get them on the weekend a lot. I got one where there was school next day but my self conscious was like "Yo yo yo, tomorrow is Saturday dude! Just remember this is a dream." then I think "god damnit how much longer is this? I wanna start ma weekend"
Yeah
Hana :Jinghay:
yup, once i dreamed about me telling me :"yo salma wake up you're gonna be late WAKE UP you better stop this dream"
All the time
When I was 8 I noticed that my dreams were very different from those of my parents or other kids around me, so I started keeping a dream journal. 20 years later and I'm really thankful I did, because it's given me a lot of creative ideas and I've even learned how to re-visit my old dreams, though it doesn't feel the same. From taking a submarine through the planet, staring in a Disney musical that doesn't exist, or breaking out of a maximum security prison on an alien planet I've had a lot of adventures.
True! Sometimes I also feel amazed about the dreams I have. Although I do forget them after waking up, I remember the feelings I felt in my dreams.
I know exactly what you mean
You have to write and publish some of your adventures! I would die for a good fiction book right now and you might be able to make a good one.
@@guandechoo6946 Believe it or not, your comment just inspired me to do that. I'll start with making a website and writing them there. Ill let you know when I put up the first one.
Yes my dude! Your gonna be a great writer one day! I'll be here cheering you on!
Anyone ever cried in their dreams and when u woke up, u actually felt tears
One thing i learn from dreaming
Is dont use the toilet in your dream its a trap 🤣😂
Ehh i don't think I wanna know 😂
Charmaine Thompson even when I lucid dream I keep forgetting this.
Sameeee
the only dream come true
Charmaine Thompson what happens when you use it ?
what if someone finds out the answer to why we dream, in their dreams? that would be pretty rad.
Then immediately forgets it after waking up
Best comment here
@@DevoteeOfAergia What if it already happened but the person who knew the answer immediately forgot it right after waking up?
if that happens TELL SIENCE
You know, I heard this story that the guy who build the coloured films for TV
Actually had a dream in coloured and thats how he got the idea
Idk 😅🤣 something of that such
Do you ever just "dream" before you go to sleep or like imagine something weird(or good)and create it into some kind of dream right before you go to sleep?
Yes, when I was little I would sometimes do that, but now, I can't.
oml i do that, it's like you're simply just thinking but then it turns into a dreamish kinda moment, kinda cool.
I do that, it helps me sleep!
Yeah, it does have a name, that is usually used for lucid dreaming, pretty cool, recommended to imagine the scenario while trying to fall asleep or one hour before going to sleep
I do that too
When you feel yourself falling in a dream, in the pit of your stomach, right before waking up. That feeling is so real. The fact that dreams can be inages as well as physical sensations is both amazing and terrifying.
what if deja vu's are forgotten dreams that happens in real life and when it happens, we remember it?
I'm not sure, but I think that a déjà vu happens in a similar way in reality some time ago. But this time your brain is too slow to get new information and it just take the old, happend once before.

“We dream to solve problems” - This is one of the best explanations as to why we dream and I’ve experienced it quite a few times. I work in Technology sector. During peak working days I would come back home from work with some unsolved issues in my mind. I tend to think so much of it that I even dream about the problem in a weird and unrelated way. As a result of this I often wake up and find vague ideas hitting me randomly in the morning. I somehow remember them and returning back to the office, I apply those ideas to the unsolved problems and it actually works. Well this could totally be a coincidence but so many coincidences indicate towards a fair possibility of this theory being correct!
Love Ted-ed videos ❤️
“We dream to solve problems” Yes has happened to me many times x
I work in tech as well and same thing happens to me all the time, you're not alone!
A gift for you. czcams.com/video/SdZIiBLtWf4/video.html
Yes it did happen to me only once. I was shock, but pretty glad about it. Cos i was able to finish up a very difficult math problem the night before.
Hi
A couple of times after someone close passed away, I was blessed to have dreams in both cases inwhich I was able to see and talk to them again - and tell them how much everyone missed them. In my last one, the person even told me they had to leave now - so we got to say goodbye... it was wonderful to see them again, and know that I was being able to see them in the dream. :)
I’ve had similar dreams with loved ones. What a gift to have had that time to say goodbye.
My desire for that experience is what led me to this video. I’m glad you had that opportunity! What a sweet feeling ❤️
I.dream A.lot about people is gone on.But it is like I had a visited with them.
A lot of people get this. That’s got to be so nice. I wish everyone could do this
*dreams about death*
"images that relate to the fulfillment of our subconscious wishes"
Seriously
bruh lol
Id rather know this is not true..🤒🤒🙏🤦
Maybe the death of others ?
if you go can i go with you
You know your life is boring when sleeping is the funniest part of your day
PLEASE
You know your wife is boring when going to bed is the worst part of your day.
ngl sometimes my dreams be funny asf, waking up bc i was laughing too hard
I'm major Tom's secretary. He can hear you.
TRUE
To keep in my notes :
1. History of dream
- Mesopotamian recored their dreams in wax tablet
- Ancient Egyptians recorded in dream book
2. Why we dream
- Dream to fulfill our wishes
- Dream to remember
- Dream to forget : reverse learning
- keep our brains working : continual activation theory, random screen saver
- Dream to rehearse : Primitive instinct rehearsal theory
- Dream to heal : lack of dreaming may be contributing factor for mental disease
- Dream to solve problems
The way my dreams are so vivid, I feel like they are just alternate realities

It reminds me of a Klasky Csupo cartoon from Nickelodeon. (Rugrats, The Wild Thornberry's, As Told By Ginger, etc.)
I often dont remember my dreams, but when I do, they're REALLY WEIRD
I once had a dream where people were being stuffed and put on display..

There was that one unforgettable dream during my teens where the chain of events felt like it happened for several years and the timelapse felt so realistic, I woke up in shock and awe thinking "how could that possibly happen in just several hours of sleep?"
I think the scariest dream I ever had was just recently where I dreamed going into the elevator in my office building. The building had in total 14 floors and I was supposed to go to the 12th floor but the elevator keeps going at a speed until it went out of the roof and exploded.
It was very realistic to the point that I can clearly and vividly remember the fire flashing before my eyes, seconds before the explosion. Woke up crying....
If u die in your dreams then your brain is not accustomed to handle a situation after death;so we immediately get awake.
SO MANY of my dreams have elevators in them. One time I had a dream that I was in a mint green elevator with J.K. Rowling, and we were going DOWN really fast. Another dream I had was one that involved taking the elevator in a version of my school that had 16 stories. It was weird.
If my claustrophobic mother had a dream like that it would've been unbelievably worse than your reaction 💀💀
@@3-.- I remember I once had a dream where I was running from a wasp. I woke up right after the wasp flew down my shirt.
brain is bored so dreaming is like watching t.v.
mostly Sci-Fi
I used dream that I was on tv. And everytime I tried to go to sleep it helped. 😊
It is better than tv if you pay more attention to your dreaming.
Yeah I love dreaming!!!!
Why dream? What else are we going to do while we're laying there all night sleeping?
when I'm running away from someone in a dream
chaser:As fast as he f*cking wants
me:literally running underwater
So truee🤣🤣
Flight or fight practice lol 🤷♀️
And you wanna scream but you can't scream
Can relate it .....😂
OMG YES It's like I can'tttttt run but I want to run fastt omg that feels so weird
Most of the time I can't remember what I dream, but when I can remember what I dreamed it's because I saw or heard something that happened in my dream, and many times those dreams have helped me in my life, that's amazing.
Sometimes I have dreams that when I wake up my heart is still beating very fast, there is an indescribable feeling inside of me. It's like I've just been through it.

Do you guys ever dream about something and then it ACTUALLY happened in the real world after? Like, your mind is predicting the future and got it right
opposite ;-; ate raw chicken in a dream then I burnt chicken in the waking world. :DD
yep, it has happened to me so often that my mom asked me not to tell her my dreams anymore, she says it can be scary to hear them
Happened to me 2 times. Prove for me that god excists. I could never ever knew these things
Yeah, this happens to me a lot, usually in random or uncomfortable situations and I usually get a feeling of Deja vu like I lived through it before.
Yepp ,,, it happened with me i dreamed once that my friend is giving me sweets as she topped in her school , and same day in the evening she gave me chocolate for 1st position in school . 😋😋😋😋
I like to think that our brain generates dreams to keep our consciousness entertained as it works, and occasionally slips little details from real life into those dreams. Like a tired parent who's three year old wants to play and as they're building Legos with their kid the parent unconsciously builds something resembling their work place, for example.
Damn how did I think this up like this is one of the few moments where my two overworked braincells rub together and create thought™
There is a theory that we experience our dreams because the occipital lobe (visual part of our brains) needs to stay active to prevent other regions from taking over it (as the brain must utilise all available parts). So by generating its own visual activity during sleep, the occipital lobe prevents being taken over by other regions :)

Sorry I don't get that. Do not let you sleep?

yes i did
No, a brain can't completely formulate a new human being itself. If you dreamt of them, then you may have seen them or someone very similar
In my experience, people I dream about are either mismatched versions of people I already knew (with different characteristics and similar ones) or someone I have seen but never talked to. Though, the idea of deja vu (imagining you did something in a dream already with this person then when you actually know them the same thing occurs) is super interesting to me!
why do we get dreams in the past and then after weeks or months later you get deja vu?
Dunno. But I get them often. I like to time them when they happen and my longest is about 5-6 seconds.
What is Deja Vu?

lucid dreams are literally the best. I've been an expert on it since I was six. the best I've had so far was a whole quidditch match in one night
I know this might be a stupid question but what's quiddich
***** an extremely cool sport in Harry Potter on broomsticks
Sometimes I realize I was dreaming without doing anything, but most of the times I hold up four fingers, put it behind my back, and then look at it again. If it was a dream the number of fingers you're holding up will change.
Works everytime
***** yeah, basically. I find the habit only settled in after I was able to constantly check my fingers about once every ten minutes without forgetting
I had lucid dreams numerous times. What i noticed is that i usually get those dreams after i woke up and went back to sleep(not immediately). Still with eyes closed, it keeps the dream sleep/dream state dominant. During this phase, try to think random thoughts. At the same time, allow your 'wake' state to slowly emerge. Then try to empty thoughts and go back to sleep. This isn't a method, im just stating my personal observations. The interesting thing is although i am aware i was dreaming, but i certainly wasn't myself. My thoughts were 'oh i am dreaming, this must be a dream, i can do whatever i want..', but my knowledge of my past/real world didn't occur to me, as if either it has lost its priority or my awareness severed the link to those memories. But still i could differentiate them. And in my dream, it seemed as thought i could remember similar environment/situations i have experienced in them better than i would have tried to recall in my wake state. It was as though my awareness is tied to a different set of memory. I am currently learning chemistry, and my dream is to solve things like these. To me, dreams is a big clue to the mystery of life.
Sleeping on problems is actually a smart thing to do huh? Being lazy has it's advantages i guess

The one about that we dream to solve problems is really relatable. I have experienced this many times when while sleeping in my dreams I solved a math problem. I did research about this topic, and the explanation for this was that the brain chunks work during the sleep.
Yes I relate so well. I've come up with solutions of many math problems while dreaming. Most of the times I forget that I even dream anything like that and then randomly remember it anytime later.
*We dream to remember*
Me: *dreaming*
26 minutes later
Me: *woke up*
Me: No!!!! I forgot my dream!
True!! It's really irritating btw.

Write down your dreams. Immediately after you wake up, u will remember some of it if you try
Nurfiqry ilham Zulfikar that works for me:)
Sometimes I remember my dreams, and if it's a good one, I'll continue it the next time I sleep. Anyone else who also do that?
Nah
do you happen to be a gamer?
This happens with me too. I thought I was the only one
If I wake up from a dream sometimes if I fall asleep right after I wake up I can resume the dream
same experience
I think until we can literally record dreams, we will never know their biological/ psychological purpose. I have taught a quite a few people who couldn't usually remember their dreams how to remember them and they have often found it surprising how "Out there" their dreams are. But the thing is no single explanation explained in this video accurately describes all of my dreams. It could be a case that dreams have many purposes that vary from situation to situation.
A common dream for me 20-30 years after finishing school was to be back at school, but worried half way through the semester that I had been forgetting to go to a certain class, usually something like an English class. My theory is that my memory has (of course) faded of a school schedule that long ago, but in the dream, my lack of recall caused me to worry. Similarly, dreaming that I was forgetting to go to a class which was needed to complete my degree and at the end of the final semester finding out I was one class short. Ack!
Sometimes my dreams come true.Not always the next day but sometimes weeks later and I tend to remember most of my dreams :)
sometimes i hear two things after eachother and then i might hear those two things again another time like a week later and it triggers some wierd memory thing but the second time i hear it it feels like i never heard it the first time and i dreamed about it :)

kamilah Paul it's happened to me
Thats why they say dreams come true
Jamesgmcbain I have had this experience too!! Sometimes i look at figures buildings statues words and suddenly freak out!
Why can’t it be all of them?
Also I had a dream last night about Gandhi eating my lunch, so I’m not sure how that connects to anything
Well... I guess your brain just remembered that Gandhi was always fasting and thought it's only nice of you to have him your lunch 😂
@@daljotsingh4918 😅😅😅
I was a mole once
Don't worry I had a dream where my brother turned into Godzilla and I realised that most of my dreams happen in the same dream town
i had a dream about having to take care of a literal gigantic baby in a hotel/water theme park. in the end, i lost the baby (i don't know how it was the size of the damn roof) and green tiny people appeared to make join their cult so as to revive the baby because now apparently the baby was dead
"But until that time arrives, we'll just have to keep on dreaming."
oh god how beautifully done that sentence is
This is the fourth ted-ed video I've watched in a row. They are so freaking fascinating!
Why do we dream?
We dream in order to:
1.remember
2.forget
3.keep brain functioning
4.rehearse
5.reduce psychological stress
6.solve problem
lol you're just bunching up all the hypothesis presentes in the video? are you aware that most of them are mutually exclusive? they are just theories, we have no real idea why we dream
which is the same when we are awake

Thank you
Does anyone ever have a dream when some famous random celebrity is in your dream and he knows you and you talk to him like you both know each other
Uhh this happened with the members of bts (it’s a Korean boy group
Sometimes that happens, and sometimes I’m standing somewhere and I randomly recognize a celeb and ask or an autograph.
This always happens to me but it's between me and Day6. Lmao.
this happened to me with dream!
rl 9 nah
Thank you for solving my thoughts about dreaming. I was googling for long time
That second one is fascinating. Before stressful or exciting events I will have vivid dreams related to said event, whereas my dreams are otherwise random as far as I can tell.
Do you ever have lucid dreams?
sometimes I dream about a event that is not real and then in the future it comes true
Me too! I thought I was the only one.
Yeah me too
same here

Ghost Cat That's Deja vu.
You know the falling feeling you get when you're sleeping?
That's your body trying to reactivate your heart because it was beating so slowly you were almost dead.
Holyheck really?? 🤭🤭 that happened to me a few times before sleeping
@@Satsuki-sv4xf Well, scientists and doctors aren't sure yet, but this is one of the theories :) And same! It's happened to me so many times
Omg that makes sense. That's why after that my heart beats so fast I can't barely breath 🤣
Lol yeah this was a Tumblr post. Idk if it's accurate but definitely very interesting
The falling feeling when you are trying to get sleep or just into sleep or sleeping is because your body detects motion. What it means is that your body was completely still and suddenly some body part moved maybe because of your sleeping position or due to your surrounding like somebody made movement in your mattress and your still body detected it which made you wake up immediately because its an emergency alert system of our brain so that we shouldn't get killed while sleeping.
I have always wondered whether our dreams are actually just visions in our head at night?is it just that simple? couldn't it be like a connection to an alternative world? maybe some version of me really did meet my favourite celebrities? maybe all these theories we have and our understanding of this world isn't the truth? I mean we could we far away from the truth. very far. I mean sometimes I think, what are we gonna do if the world stopped working the way we understand it? what will we do then? and we could all be having these questions in our heads but we are just avoiding answering them because they seem weird and our thinking capacities are limited. I mean I'm just saying...
I think the fact that there are so many theories about how sleep helps us shows how important it is.
I've dreamt subsequently about my crush, my celebrity crush and my maths teacher. It worries me that apparently my maths teacher is considered just as important as the other two in my mind.
Haha.
I always thought of it as your brain organizing things while you are asleep.
Sometimes I get fun coincidences in my dreams, like once I had a dream about a tsunami overtaking my house the night before I found out about the Japan flooding.
+TheTorridestCheese I had a dream where i was running from ---- And i hung myself to take away its power over me.
The next day a boy in our school hung himself in the courtyard...
+Jye Woberts when die to you wake up?
+Jye Woberts
Stop dreaming right now! Hahahahah!
+TheTorridestCheese dreams often are 'trailers' of upcoming events in our life
+TheTorridestCheese Me too! Once I dreamed this girl was on my parent's bed and she told me to leave.The next day,she took my friend away and told me to leave.
Ever had a nightmares and then you thought you woke up but it’s just your dream and then panic even more until you wake up for real
Sometimes I forget my dreams then just by seeing or hearing something makes me remember it and that thing I saw or hear is connected to with my dream
The real question here is when we all fall asleep where do gO?
Even if we have never fallen like rhat
sleep is just a free trial of death

You know when you make images in ur head? I think its just on full screen
I don't know why, but I'm a bit scared by this video... strange
There's a phobia of dreaming O=
Maybe that's it
Me too. I guess it's not because of contents itself but because of style of animation depicted

Me too.
The subconscious doesn't want you to know... NOW PREPARE FOR NIGHTMARES
I've had these dreams that i've dream for a 2-3 times and every another time I've dreamed about them again I somehow remembers what would happen the dream will continues a lot more longer than I dreamed of it before.
I've had a few over the years where something tragic happened, and I spent the dream wishing it wasn't true - had one just recently like that, then woke up... I was so thankful it wasn't actually true after all, like a 2nd chance to appreciate the life I had to begin with. :)
There are many important scientific and technological advancements that people discovered in their dreams.
Thanks for the clarity on this. Had some dreams last night.

Me too.
Well I always had a theory about dreaming which I feel encapsulates all of the ones in the video now that I've watched it, which is basically that we dream to process thoughts. I guess the video explains on a deeper level what our brains do with the thoughts after processing. We either forget, remember, rehearse, or solve problems. What I'm wondering though is why do dreams fade as soon as you wake up and the more you think about them...
Who enjoys setting back and remembering so many dreams by locations like he is flying over them or being put into different scenes and switching between them very fast, and getting a certain vibe with each dream?
Those are the best kinds of dreams! I miss having them. Do you dream about flying a lot? I guess by your username you experience lucid dreams?
@@Badass_Brains Yea, I dream of flying and running very, really very fast. I dreamed once flying in a helicopter in insane speed that it crashed at the end. But the common feature between these dreams is that while I fly or run fast I pass through many places I know very fast, this may be that my brain is trying to symbolize something for me.
Regarding lucid dreams, there was an exceptional one happened to me, I once told myself in wakefulness that when I fall asleep and start dreaming, I will look to my self and see what I wear, and when I start dreaming I remembered that, looked And found that I was wearing a white T shirt. It was very entertaining to control my dream.
Some of my dreams are mind boggling that I wish I was a talented artist or 3D animator to produce them in real world due to there special type of their nostalgic feeling.
Also I’m the type of person who experiences sleep paralysis now and then, and I have some dramatic stories with each one. 😄
By the way, your channel is awesome 👏✨ keep going.
All my dreams are cliffhangers (sometimes in a literal sense).
And it's hella annoying.

When I was in a dream I was in math class (wasn’t a bad dream just a normal school day in a dream) I was trying to use a calculator and it wouldn’t work and that’s how I learned how to figure how I was dreaming and take control of my dreams and I love it
Im a musician, a drummer. And i once dreamed about playing a song that i struggled playing in real life. And after that dream, i sat on my kit and played it just like in my dream and it sounded really good. We dream to learn, sometimes.

Me who writes down the dream I had: Interesting
When I had just gotten a stick shift car, first day was tricky of course. That night, I dreamt of myself driving stick shift perfectly. That dream taught me how to drive stick shift! The next day I didn't stall at all, not even on hills. I still don't understand how that's possible but it's truly remarkable.

Not sure why they happen but dreams help me understand myself better. Especially repeating dreams. I dream of desires and nightmares of problems. Dreams let me know what is important to me even though sometimes I try to convince myself of something different.
i've been having the same dream occasionally for the past 10years, sometimes it's hard to differentiate from real life. it's about regrettable choices i made since mid school

More or less so but that can't explain why we forget our dreams tho lol.
different kinda dreams bro
Dream here mean hope or probably goals and not something really strange and came to us while we're sleeping
I lost my mom twice in nightmares. What was the feeling of mine after waking up, I can't describe by any means. I'm grateful to my creator, my mom is okay.
I'm glad your mom is ok! Hope you and your mom stay safe!
I love the way the narrator explains🥰
Over this past year or so,i have had 3 separate dreams where i was amongst some people who were from Poland. All 3 dreams were very pleasant,and everyone was friendly. I have recorded in writing each dream. I just wish i knew what the meaning behind them was. The last dream was very nice. I didnt want it to end.
There's something we don't know, something that none of us can understand. I can feel it.
I HAVE THAT FEELING TOO, LIKE SOMEDAY WE DISCOVER SOMETHING WHAT IS OVER OUR UNDERSTANDING

Perception huh ? Guess you’re right I can feel it to
Im confused, my dreams never happened in real life but I can remember everything that happens at random times and places that arent related at all with my dreams. It kinda feels like having Deja Vu
Exactly... Sometimes it happened that when I am at a certain place, I remember I had dreamt it few years back... Strange isn't it!?
INFINITE 39 Thats not what I have felt. I was walking by a corner shop when suddenly I imagined/ felt like remembering I bought a couch. It wasnt something i’ve done before. It felt like having De Ja Vu but not exactly it.
I didnt do something and suddenly remember ive done it before.
@@marilouungos2883 wah! That's kinda creepy...
It happens to me too! I'll be randomly sitting somewhere doing something normal, and see someone walk by at an angle, or see someone say something in a specific tone of voice and think "This has happened before". Only thing is, I don't know when.
Deja vu? What is this.
Your Videos are *Short & To The Point* with *Simple Animation*
I remember every single one of my dreams and I can remember them as soon as I wake up.
I know I'm four years late, but the animation in this video is so cool! I like how it changes in style and tone; it does a great job of conveying what dreaming is like.
I started a dream journal a few months ago. I learned how to remember my dreams while waking up so I could write them down.
Now it seems as if some part of me doesn't particularly like the fact I'm writing down my dreams, because now I dream that I wake up to write my dream down in my dream, so I can't remember it when I really wake up. (oops this sentence is confusing. Basically I think I just woke up although I'm still dreaming. Then I write my dream down while I'm still asleep. Because I tend to forget my dreams once I wrote them down, I forget them even if I just wrote them down while dreaming.)
It's so confusing to wake up although you think you already were awake!
I have had a similar experience. Usually when i am studying at night before an exam, i fall sleepy and decide to do it in the early morning. So i dream of studying the leftover portion, even though I haven't really done it consciously. But i have the feeling that I finished my portion. Its so weird and confusing haha
So far I only have 3-4 dreams in my journal and I started a few months ago. I do still have vivid dreams but I only write down the ones I feel like I'm definitely going to forget or that have an incredible amount of details.
Same here, I started writing dream logs quite a while ago, the number of logs is about 100 now. I'm usually aware that I'm dreaming, so whenever I'm about to "end" my dream I'll try to re-narrate the plot/story and remember some keywords so that I can write it out when I wake up. There are days when I "woke up" inside another dream and quickly write things down, until I realized that I was still dreaming. And then I would wake up a second time forgetting what I had to write. It's very annoying to wake up from a double dream.
this happens to me as well :(
I started journaling my dreams like 8 years ago and I remember so many more dreams now. But there are times when I dream I've woken up or I wake up but I'm not very conscious and just find scribbles / auto fill on the notes in my phone. What's really trippy is when I'm dreaming about telling someone about a dream I just had or when I dream that I am sleeping in bed dreaming.
I've had such vivid dreams about past inaction that it's mentally crushing.
This was so good! Thank you!
How about blind people since birth? How do they dream?
i think they hear sounds while they sleep of something...not sure tho
+Tokoryo Manilano (Tok) sadly i think they do not dream
my god mother was blind, she once told me that she have dreams.
Dark Phoenix What kind of dreams?
+Tokoryo Manilano (Tok) His "God mother" might've seen things before, but then they become blind, and then they have dreams about then seeing things..
My attractive neighbor looks rather creepy in this video.
。斑比 YES i was just going to say something about that
Lol
Lmao🤣😂
。斑比 i love this comment
I don't get it
Brilliant pieces mate! so accurate and original :) well done!
Made a video on this recently also but have to respect the amount of info you put into this
if we could only record our dreams...
could you imagine watching peoples dreams on internet..
you would make some bucks..
Yeah my dreams are crazy unrealistic. When I wake up it's always like I just saw some weird movie with a warped plot. Yesterday I had a dream about 2 twins trying to kill me in an old Indian building in which we were the only humans. There were elves and dwarves doing some kind of work there. And rule breakers in that building where punished with half their faces being exposed to the surface of a pool with piranhas. It was the first bad dream I've had in a really long time. I woke up just before the twins started to tie me up. And I woke up crying. It would make a pretty good horror movie.
I think it would be the most interesting video on CZcams.
