i've never really dreamed, but when i do have dreams they are super vivid and i remember them for days on end and they are usually prophetic in nature, very real life like and yeah does my head in. but i can go years without remembering a single dream. my wife said i did sometimes wake up in a start struggling for breath, usually a sign i'd had a nightmare or something but i couldn't even remember it the instant i woke up.
its funny you bring it up because i had one a few weeks back. it always ends up being some wierd random thing that i'll be out and about and have a deja vu moment that what happened was from one of my dreams.
