Everyone has dreams .. many people swear that they don't .. but they just don't remember them. Without the stage of dreaming .. you would die within 3 weeks .. and start to show "results" from not dreaming within 72 hours. I have heard that dreams last anywhere from 7 to 20 minutes. Sometimes mine seem to last much longer. I do know for sure that according to studies, almost everyone shifts the position of their bodies during sleep at least once every 7 minutes. Good Luck ! :)

Usually dreams last for about 5 to 10 minutes only but they seem so long because in a deep sleep our mind is at time distortion making minutes seem like hours and somestimes hours seems like minutes. It all depends on how deep of a sleep you are in and how fast you REM is... The faster your REM the deeper the sleep therefore the longer a minute lasts.

"How long do dreams last?" at first, about twenty minutes, but over the period of 8 hours in which you're sleeping, they last longer and longer up to about an hour. But a normal dream lasts about 20 minutes.
