Multiple Dreams
We have multiple dreams per night, and they last anywhere from 90 minutes to two hours. We can have more than seven dreams per night. Talk about sensory overload! But, we mostly dream two to three times per night, as it depends on the REM cycles someone has. Unfortunately, most dreams are immediately forgotten. According to Pub Med, studies have explained that neurons producing melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) seemed to impair the memory-making function in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus during REM sleep, and our brain chooses what dreams to forget. This may include nightmares or dreams that make us feel uncomfortable.
