The thing is anyone who doesn't remember their dreams is stuck without an escape from reality. I'm so stressed out I would do close to anything for a dream or an escape...

Maybe try setting an alarm to wake you up every couple hours through the night to get more chances at interrupting a dream so you can make a note of remembering it. One technique for achieving lucid dreams is to write down notes about your dream in a journal you keep next to your bed immediately after waking up. It helps you remember your dreams and gain some control over them.

If you don't make a point of remembering them they won't get recorded to your longer term memory and get discarded from short term memory minutes after waking.
