how much of your life will you sleep away..lol

if the average person spends 7 hours a day sleeping, and lives an average life of about 75 years, then he or she has slept nearly 1/3 (22 years) of his or her life away.freaky thought that when you think about it.

I'm not gonna sleep as much .... wanna enjoy life not sleep it away.

the point is,dreams are a good experience,sleep doesnt always have to be an empty space of nothingness,mad as it may sound but in dream form,its like anew lil world/life..have a go at lucid dreaming and take your abilities to new heights,you certainly wont think its wasted then.

i need to sleep more i only get between 4-7 hours a night
thats wht i have bad dark circles under me eyes lol

at moment i'm not even getting to dream state.

every one dreams each night,but not everyone remembers dreaming

wheres those dark circle's ?
you look GOOD in pics.

fesster..take a peek at this,it may help you get to where you want to be.

Most people claim they can't remember their dreams. If this
describes you, try this technique. Before you go to bed at night,
take a pad and pen and leave them at your bedside. The last
thought before you go to sleep should be, "I will remember my
dreams." Repeat it several times. Do this earnestly every night
and you should begin to remember your dreams. Don't be
discouraged if it doesn't happen the first few nights. It may take
some time. You've spent all your life ignoring your
subconscious, you must convince it that you want to listen and
learn from it.

At first there may be just bits and pieces. But, if you pick up
your pad and pen and jot down everything that you remember
immediately upon wakening, you will start remembering more
and more details. The key is to do it IMMEDIATELY upon
wakening -- don't wait until after you go to the bathroom. Jot
down the symbols, the places, the people, and the way you feel
both physically and emotionally. Then go back and fill in the
details. If you have the basics, the details will come back to you,
but you must get down the initial puzzle pieces before you can
complete the puzzle. If a symbol is fuzzy or you're not really
sure it was what you think it was jot it down and put a question
mark next to it.

If you continue to wake up without remembering any dreams,
you are probably waking up in a non-REM period of sleep. Try
setting your alarm clock 15 - 30 minutes earlier than you
normally wake up. Chances are you will be in your last REM
period (the most vivid dream state) at that time. You will more
likely remember a dream, if you wake up in the middle or
towards the end of it.

Again, it may take a while, but if you faithfully follow these steps
your subconscious will get the message that you want to
remember your dreams -- and you will.

will give it a try ... just for you.
I can never remember having dreams even when i was younger
could it be any different for me as i work permanant nights ?

aww you poor thing,i work night too,but luckily only three in a row.........it cld make a difference i guess as your natural sleep pattern is being disrupted,and im sure you know exactly what i mean by this..as for my experiences though,i tend to have more frequant dreams in one go through lighter sleeps thru the day between my shifts.

give it a go and let us know how you get on...there isnt really that much info on why some peeps dont remeber their dreams,maybe a contributionary factor cld be being in too much of a deep sleep.my hubby can be off snoring within minutes,he lies down ond boomf hes out where as i need time to adjust and settle before falling asleep...........

i'm the same as soon as i hit pillow zzzzzzzzzzz's

so maybe your a very deep sleeper then,i cant say for sure but i guess this cld be a factor in yr lack of aknolwedgement in dreams.having said that my hubby for all hes out for the count within seconds,he does dream often...i dunno mate...do you have any thoughts run through your head when you lie down and close yr eyes,before your in sleep??

I might try that remembering thing. Sometimes I have the craziest dreams, but they get all confused when I try to think of them.

hidden well lmao

I wish I got 7 hours a night or day,I get more like 3-4 if that a day
