Does anyone else have vivid dreams that you can not explain? Sometimes I don't want to wake up because I want to see how it turns out, then it haunts me all day.

Welcome to PC, thegirinpurple!

Yes I have these kind of dreams, it always seems like I am having them right when the alarm clock goes off or some rings the door bell.

I'm mainly a lucid dreamer, but I still like to watch them play out. I particularly enjoy the vivid ones that come with some of my meds. They can be pretty entertaining, even if I do know what's going to happen.

Welcome. I have some pretty freaky dreams at times. the ones I seem to remember are the ones that are totally out there. Because of my analytical mind, I tend to try and interpret them because I sometimes think it's my subconscious mind speaking to me. I repress a lot so sometimes I think it comes out in my dreams.

yeah...when I do dream, most of them are interesting and I don't wanna wake up...or if the alarm goes off I snooze it and try to get back into them...with varying success.

YES! have always had intense dreams. Can still remember some from childhood. My father liked to discuss dreams. I write them down in a Dream Journal & re-read, trying to understand them. I enjoy Jungian dream interpretation

I used to dream a lot, and when I'm unstable I've had vivid, lucid dreams. I almost never remember my dreams now. I blame the meds. I really miss dreaming.
