Why Don't We Dream of Our Phones?

If you're one of the lucky few who does dream about your phone, consider yourself lucky
Phones have become an essential part of our lives. We use them for everything from staying connected to loved ones to browsing the internet to entertaining ourselves. But why don't we dream of our phones more often?

What the Research Says

According to a study published in Science Direct, only a small percentage of people dream about their phones. In fact, women are more likely to dream about phones than men, but even then, the rate is only around 3.5%.

So why is it so rare for us to dream about our phones? There are a few theories.

Theory 1: Phones Are Too New

One theory is that phones are simply too new for our brains to have incorporated them into our dreams. Phones have only been around for a few decades, while humans have been dreaming for thousands of years. It's possible that our brains simply haven't had enough time to learn how to dream about phones.

Theory 2: Phones Aren't Emotional

Another theory is that phones don't have a strong emotional connection for us. Dreams are often driven by our emotions, so it makes sense that we would be more likely to dream about things that are emotionally important to us. Phones are important tools, but they don't typically evoke strong emotions in the same way that our loved ones or our passions do.

Theory 3: Phones Are Too Complex

Phones are complex devices with a lot of different functions. It's possible that our brains simply can't keep up with all of the different things that phones can do. As a result, we may avoid dreaming about phones in order to avoid the confusion.

Which Theory Is Correct?

It's likely that all of these theories play a role in why we don't dream about our phones more often. Phones are new, they're not particularly emotional, and they're complex. All of these factors may contribute to their relative absence from our dreams.


Do You Dream About Your Phone?

If you're one of the lucky few who does dream about your phone, consider yourself lucky. Dreaming about phones can be a lot of fun, especially if you're able to control your dreams. So next time you're going to bed, try thinking about your phone before you drift off. You may just be surprised by what you dream about.
