Do you dream? Reflect on what the podcast says about dreaming and your thoughts about the function of dreaming

Answer:

I dream, and I often remember my dreams as well. Until listening to this podcast, I wasn't aware that dreaming was such an inevitability. However, I'm wondering if there's any medical or scientific way to prevent dreams. I know there is some side effects to medications that produce vivid dreams for the user. I'm wondering if a side-effect may be the opposite, wherein which the user is devoid of dreams. I'm assuming the answer is no, as the podcast only mentioned a "rare type of brain damage" causing a lack of dreams, but I'd like to know for sure.
