Does anyone else not dream?

I found that after leaving the abusive relationship I was in I started having dreams again, I was constantly tensed and on guard in the relationship and now that I dont have that stress of having to defend anything I do I feel more relaxed and that has helped calm my mind to the point u started dreaming again

For me, it's a defense mechanism to just not remember my dreams. After serving in the Army and being deployed to the Middle East for the Gulf War, I completely wipe my dreams out of my mind. I've been doing it for years, it even affects my memory. I don't hardly remember my high school years.

I dream or nightmare almost every night and remember everything but pretty much every other aspect of my life I forget things very easily its very stressful feeling and always feel guilty

I don't dream unless it's a nightmare. I've been told I talk in my sleep sometimes when I'm stressed. As for blank starring. I have ADHD and do that all the time when im over stimulated and can't focus anymore I zone out. Everyone hates it. I have PTSD so I don't know if it's trauma response now because I use to dream when I was younger but not anymore.

Its actually proven that all people dream, but when it is a dream your brain feels will stress you out or freak you out, it will block it, basically. But if it is a dream you enjoy and are happy in, you are forced away from it by someone or something waking you up, you will remember every detail

I have been this way my entire life regardless of medications, drugs, exercise, or diet. I am also native American and smoke weed for both cultural and health reasons but if anything I have had more dreams on weed however they are still very rare and short, most of the time they are also prophetic or erotic and not any other category of dream which limits it a lot. It doesn't seem to effect my quality of sleep much either, some days I have a good deep sleep and others I don't at all.

Most of my life I've suffered similar problems. Of course I've also smoked marijuana most of my life. Since I have stopped I've had some of the most beautiful dreams and Vivid of my life. Unfortunately when I wake I'm in the same position I'm in in my dreams are just that dreams. I'm not sure if you're on any prescription medicine do drugs but I would suggest that change in diet and exercise. Even though smoking pot to me is part of my Native American Rights and the only. Heritage I feel I have of my ancestors I have stopped and I do dream again so you might want to change your diet and just exercise that's all the advice I could give you I don't clearly know what you're going through or the medication you're on there are many things they could do this not getting good sleep I still don't get good sleep but I do dream now even if I sleep for only 2 hours I have dreams and be careful what you wish for

I have never dreamed in my life other than nightmares caused by ptsd when I was a kid. My mental health is better now and couple of nights recently I started slept for a bit longer and dreamed for the first time. Longer sleep allows for more period of late night REM sleep, which is the sleep stage that you dream in, but if you have mental health issues, thins may cause more nightmare, so be careful and see someone if this is the case. You may also be a light sleeper, which will prevent REM sleep, so filtering out light an noise may be to get a better night's sleep.

I don't really dream, either. When I do, It's a nightmare or a night terror. From what I've read, it depends on two things: What type of sleep you're in (Light,deep,REM) and how long you're in each sleep phase. Most dreams happen in REM and deep sleep, so if you're not in either of those phases for very long you may not remember it. Also, nightmares tend to be more memorable, so that's also a factor. I have PTSD, so it may very well be related.

My husband doesn't dream. And when he does they're usually nightmares.

I don’t know if I dream or not but if I do I don’t remember them at all, I also have a lot of self diagnosed mental health issues,
