I don't seem to remember dreaming as much after I started using cpap 6 years ago.

Re: Are you having wildly vivd dreams using CPAP?
I've had 2 vivid dreams that past 2 nights which is weird for me. First one was about a spider/centipede hybrid (6 foot tall of course) and in my dream I thought I was dreaming because when I would open my eyes I saw this thing coming at me. I would close my eyes and knew it was a dream (confusing and can't explain it correctly). But I drempt all of that so not sure what the heck was real and what wasn't!
Last night I drempt my cpap quit working so I got up and hooked up this white, flat machine that looked like an old answering machine and it worked as a cpap.
I think I've had too much sun in the garden this week.

Re: Are you having wildly vivd dreams using CPAP?
If you just recently started CPAP, you may be experiencing "REM Rebound". Before being treated with CPAP, you were unable to get sufficient REM sleep. Now you are getting an excess of REM and typically more dreams occur in REM that other stages. REM Rebound will eventually pass when your REM deficit is paid back.La Zona wrote:The past couple of nights I have been having very vivid dreams in which I know I am dreaming...so I can control the dreams. Most of the time I am flying a fighter jet like Tom Cruise in Top Gun...or sometimes a space ship like in Battle STar Gallactica or Star Wars. And my co-pilot is a sexy bikini model. Probably has something to do with the mask.
The other possibility is that something is awakening you and you then have a vivid memory of the dream. Try this the next time you awaken from a vivid dream. Turn your CPAP off for just a second and then restart it and try to go back to sleep. The next day when you look at your daily detail data you can see where you awoke from the dream by looking for the short period where you had the machine off. If you had events just before the machine was turned off, it may be that the events are waking you.

Re: Are you having wildly vivd dreams using CPAP?
I never subscribed to the idea that there are vivid dreams and non-vivid dreams. They are all vivid.
If you don't awaken or only awaken for a moment, you won't remember the vivid dream as vivid. If you awaken fully for a couple of minutes, you may have a vivid memory of your vivid dream.
Vivid memories and not-so-vivid memories.

It would be so cool to astro travel like to other planets but only if someone was with me because I don't like to travel alone the spaceship should go really fast though.

Re: Are you having wildly vivd dreams using CPAP?
That would be very rare or drug-induced. It is natural to awaken several times during the night. A "good sleeper" might fall back to sleep quickly and never remember the next morning that he had several awakenings.La Zona wrote: i dont think i am being awaken because i only wake up now after 8 or 9 hours of sleep
But still, consider yourself blessed with good sleep.

Re: Are you having wildly vivd dreams using CPAP?
I sleep through the night and also sleep 8 to 10 hours. I don't take any drugs/meds to make me sleep or that cause sleepiness. Husband is the same way when he is not on the road. I guess we both have strong bladders.Sheffey wrote:That would be very rare or drug-induced. It is natural to awaken several times during the night.

Your FAQ is not professionally done. The stages of sleep do not include a "dream stage". Humans dream in all stages of sleep.cpaptotalcare wrote:dream stage

LOL as a non Californian. And by the way, that would apply double to folks in Hawaii.postitnote wrote:People living in California should have nice dreams! No excuse not to.La Zona wrote:LSAT wrote:La Zona wrote:
