Is It Normal To Dream Every Night? And In Every Sleep?

Somebody told me recently that I am abnormal because I dream every single time I sleep. Even if I sleep only for 15minutes, I dream. And I remember my dreams very well.

Just yesterday I remember I fell asleep on the sofa while watching TV. I started dreaming, but somebody woke me up. I noted that the time had only changed by 5-6 minutes. So.. is this normal or what? Every person I have asked so far, say that they only dream sometimes (as in, not every day).

Please share your thoughts!

Thank you.

@mercenary2k

even if I go to sleep for a couple of minutes I have a dream

thank god I am not alone

I am glad I’m not alone. Where was this thread when I was going crazy over this phenomenon :bummer:

@Lucid_Chaotic

Talking about dream abnormalities, here’s something I experience all the time and wonder if anyone else does:

Sometimes I try to manipulate my dreams through the subconscious… happens to me all the time. Just the other night, I was having a scary dream and while dreaming, I told myself “this is just a dream – so stay put and see if you really get scared or not… don’t wake up” .
:hehe: I woke up in the morning and had a laugh about it.

Also, sometimes I have a nested dream… i.e. a dream within a dream.

Anyone else? or am I the only one with the semi-eerie trance experiences.

^ :hehe: I know Tofi… I used “nested” for lack of a better word - geeks galore.

NEWays yeah I suppose part of my problem is really broken sleep. I only get about 4 hours a night and even then it’s broken - so I’m never really “asleep”.

@TofiBaba

Lol, don’t know about “nested dreams” (dreams na hui, javascript ho gayi). :hehe:
I have actually tried that instructing myself thing. Can’t always have control though. Usually it happens when I’m napping in the afternoon and sorta floating between real life and dream world. Have even tried changing what’s going on. Don’t remember if i was ever successful in that.

Have either of you tried Lucid dreaming ? @T1000 used to talk about lucid dreaming.
Do you still have the sleep issue @Lucid_Chaotic ? I have the broken sleep problem too and I feel like I’m never really asleep.
