I never dream but last night I had three seperate dreams that were a continuation of each other, after each waking I returned to the same dream right where it dropped off, then I had a completely seperate dream the next time,,yes I woke four times last night..I skipped my ambien on purpose who says it's not addicting. Even with it I wake between one to three times a night. No caffine at all, keep a schedule, dark room, background noise, right temperature, my sleep is awful and not restful..But I never dream,,is dreaming a good sign or a bad one,,does dreaming mean I reaching a better level of sleep or not..both dreams were troubling,,the long segmented one was filled with me killing others as a soldier and finally being trapped about to be killed, then I woke...[no i never was a soldier or in the military....no bad memories,,] the last was feeling lost and trapped, not knowing were or why I was at, struggling to get out and find my way home but not reaching it..I like the idea of dreaming as I have not in years, the subject matter was too dark to be comfortable though..but is dreaming a good sign of my sleep health or a bad one ?

I think everybody dreams during REM sleep. It's just that not everybody remembers the dreams. I can't begin to interpret your dreams but there are some here who can. Maybe one of them will read yur post and help you with it.

Hi there wiretwister

I know what you mean .... When you drift in and out of consciousness.... Dream .... Fall asleep ..... Dream.

I find the thing is I'm not sure if im really falling into a deep sleep. More like half asleep. And half awake.

Can leave me feeling a bit zombified the next day ...

Dreaming occurs in REM sleep, which is a lighter phase of sleep but it's also the time that our brain & body recovers from our day. Good or bad dreams, REM is an important phase of sleep. Gentle hugs and best wishes to you!
