    After reading for a couple hours last night, I let out some steam in an emotionally charged dream journal post, hoping to actually remember some dreams this morning in the process. I definitely think my calm evening of reading and meditation helped me slip into a deep sleep of many dreams, but sadly I do not remember any. I remember waking up in the middle of the night very horny and remembering my dreams, but also being very tired. Classic - I never really did find a way of logging my dreams as and when I remembered them. It's kind of like brute force - my ideal method would be laptop as I type fast and could get back to sleep ASAP, but having the energy to do that in the middle of the night is tough. I remember people years ago talking about using a voice recording app which I might try tonight, but I think I tried this before and my mid-sleep voice was just too slurry. Anyway, I woke up today feeling refreshed and well-dreamt (even if I don't remember them)... here's to tonight!

      So some thoughts on this after reading this and your previous post, because I'm in something of a similar boat.

      I would consider not worrying about waking up and recording dreams. I seldom do it unless I have an exceptionally interesting one. I tend to use the computer. While its not ideal I am a very fast typer. I can bash out the main ideas/outline of the dream in a word document in a minute or two. I will say this is definitely not an ideal method. I feel like writing is too slow and talking wakes me up more than using a computer.

      You might want to try just letting yourself rest and just worrying about getting the last dream before waking up. Especially if you've been feeling very tired, pushing yourself to get up and recall multiple dreams is going to make the problem worse not better.

      hey JadeGreen, thanks for the comment - interesting to hear your perspective. As you said, I think typing on the computer is my best bet too - in fact I did this last night and wrote almost 1,000 words about my dreams in ten minutes or so, being a fast typer like yourself. I just try to put the backlight brightness as low as possible so that I'm not waking myself up too ]much. Posting those dreams now!

      No, it's never enough. Unless you don't have time to write every detail down. You can use a voice recorder too if you are too busy to type. I can't remember the exact number of the characters that an single entry holds on here but, I have had very long dreams (More then dream a night) that are very detailed too.
