Like, I get that dreams are probably a way for the brain to sort and store its recent experiences, but why/how do we even remember those dreams? I can’t think of what purpose that could serve, other than to make me question my sanity.

I don’t remember the vast majority of my dreams, just the basic idea of a handful from the last few decades. Not the details, just the concepts.
Sometimes when I wake up in the middle of one I know what was going on but then it fades within a few minutes.
When I was drinking heavily all the time I never dreamed and it was awesome.
I haven’t had alcohol in a very long time now and I don’t like how vivid dreams can be, most of the time.
Same. I’ve considered trying to learn lucid dreaming, but have never put the effort in.
I once spontaneously had a lucid dream. Not a pleasant experience. It’s like walking around a labirynth that shifts constantly. Even when you blink some details get altered. This results in complete desorientation with a hint of panic. There’s no such thing as going from one place to another. Around every corner there’s a different random semi-familiar location. Even looking around alters the environment.
Damn dude, that’s nuts!
