For me it is always 3rd. Its almost like I’m an actor in my own dream. Few times I realize it, but then just wake up.

    I used to dream all the time when I was a kid (mostly in 3rd person from what I can recall), but for quite a few years now, I just don’t even feel like I dream at all. It’s not even that I don’t remember what the dreams were (when I dreamt before, I could tell when I had a dream, even if it was just a vague notion that I couldn’t recall), I just don’t even have a sense that any dreams are happening period. Not sure if it was from all the drug & alcohol use during my teen/early 20s, but sleep for me now is like time travel. It just happens and suddenly I wake up a few hours in the future, assuming I’m able to actually get a good amount of sleep.

      I’m almost exactly the same way, except I never dreamed in my youth either. As far I’m concerned I don’t dream, and sleep is far and away the fastest way to pass time.

      Try some fat before bed. I used to do a pea size amount of coconut oil, or an egg at supper.
