I’ve had this happen twice in the last week, and I was wondering if this happens to any of you. I’ll wake up after an ND–typically a pretty vague and/or short one–and write in down in the middle of the night. Then, after trying to recall everything possible, I try to go back to sleep. While trying WILD techniques, I suddenly remember another dream that I had before and write it down, too. This one is typically much longer and more detailed than the first one I remembered. Interesting, huh? The second time this happened to me, I had a vivid LD after falling back asleep.
Yeah, my recall happens like that a lot in the mornings. Anyhoo, sometimes it rolls around in your head a bit before it’ll hit you all of a sudden. Neat, eh?
I think I have that too… sometimes I actually don’t remember anything at all and then a random object in my room, like say a lamp, will remind me of a dream with fire in full detail.
I mostly remember more and more as I am writing down the dream. All of my stories in my DD are constantly going back and forth in time, because I sometimes remember things in the dream that happened before the things I remember when I wake up.
