Introduction to Psychology/Psychology 101 students that we only dream in REM (rapid
eye movement) sleep. It turns out that

mistake! I beat myself up for a long time, and told myself in a very stern
manner, āIām the professor and I should know better!ā Not surprisingly, at this point in my life, I was deeply unhappy. |
