Is it possible to control your dream so you can see an old memory?

Yes, if you are hypnotized. I completely believe it is possible, and I've seen it done (on TV). However, this is a controversial topic and you will find differing opinions among scholars.

There is no universally agreed biological definition of dreaming. General observation shows that dreams are strongly associated with rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, during which an electroencephalogram shows brain activity to be most like wakefulness. Participant-nonremembered dreams during non-REM sleep are normally more mundane in comparison.[1] During a typical lifespan, a human spends a total of about six years dreaming[2] (which is about two hours each night[3]). It is unknown where in the brain dreams originate, if there is a single origin for dreams or if multiple portions of the brain are involved, or what the purpose of dreaming is for the body or mind. It has been hypothesized that dreams are the result of dimethyltryptamine (DTM) in the brain.[citation needed]

dreams are the results of the things you did last/what concerns you the most at the moment.

if you think about somebody, you end up dreaming about him/her.

if you think about work, you end up dreaming about stuff you need to get done.

if you think about people, you end up dreaming either a memory together or a fantasy.

if you want to dream about somebody that bad, it takes more than one night. you have to think about him/her constantly then it will work. trust. i've done it before (my bestfriend who moved to another country cuz of family matters)

think about it b4 you go 2 sleep that MAY work sometimes it does 4 me than again sometimes it doesn't
