Document Summary
Dreaming can occur in rem and non rem sleep. Hearing your alarm and it is in your dream. Grinding teeth can cause dreams of teeth falling out. Brain stem is very active during dreams. It is the main control of your body. Could be a reason we have trouble remembering dreams. Treating dreams as real could be an issue. You forget dreams in the first few minutes. Good visual abilities can aid in remembering dreams. You tend to have a memory bias, you remember only weird/scary dreams. You tend to remember the dream you just had and not the other dreams you might have had earlier that night. Best option: wake people up right after each dream and ask them what they were just dreaming. Scene shifts: suddenly switching to a different place in a dream. Scene shifts might be due to television.
