This happens to me plenty. The worst actually happened last week, when I kept returning to a dream that Jimmy cheated on me/broke up with me. I kept trying to phone him and his family wouldn't let me talk to him...so I'd wake up after the dream going "Thank god it wasn't real, now I'll really call him just to make sure we're cool." And I'd go right back to the dream, thinking it was real every time. This went on for a half hour I swear. ing awful. |
that's also happened to me. with bad dreams i always feel like i'm ed either way. if i go back to sleep and keep dreaming, i'll continue feeling upset and scared. but if i wake up and realize it's only a dream, i still can't shake those feelings.
the dream that i was having this morning was so weird though. not in a bad way, but it was definitely kind of ed up. i found out i was pregnant and Rob was really mad at me, so i kept thinking "i have to find out whose baby this is" because i figured he wouldn't have been mad if it was his baby. i was woken up at the point in the dream where i was freaking out trying to figure out what i was going to do, but as soon as i got back into the dream it was like my whole attitude changed and all of a sudden i felt like everything was going to be okay. |

So by waking up you "missed" the start of the fight? Like a movie where you miss part of it by walking out of a room?
Interesting. |
Exactly. It was like I went on a piss break and missed some crazy stuff while I was gone. |

| I dream every single night. This happens to me every morning that I sleep past 8. Its actually pretty frustrating and exhausting. My dreams are always vivid enough that when I wake up, I dont really feel like Ive slept that well. |

There was a chance it could have been someone else's baby? :wtf: |

My weirdest dream lately...
I was some kind of FBI investigator or something, and my partner was a middle-aged Asian woman. We were investigating some guy who lived in what seemed like a cross between a natatorium (place with a big swimming pool) and a factory. When we questioned him, we saw that he had these coins with letters on the side. I took some of the coins for "evidence," but as I did so I heard a scream come from above.
Somehow I knew that the scream had come from a guy falling into a pool that had a big fan at the bottom. I ran out of the room to try and find the guy and help him. The Asian woman stayed to watch the other guy. I started to think that they were conspiring together somehow, perhaps to kill me?
Anyway, I ran up some stairs and then opened a metal door. When I opened the door, I saw nothing but open green fields and blue sky. There were some cars driving slowly along a dirt path in front of me. Suddenly my friend Chris was there beside me, and he said, "Look, they have alpacas!" That's when I noticed that there were dozens of people walking around casually, enjoying the sunny day, and most of them had alpacas on leashes walking alongside them. The alpacas looked like this guy:
:wtf: |

| FYI, if you are able to re-enter a "dream" after waking from it then it is more likely a hallucination rather then a dream. Hallucinations are common in the first hour or so of sleep, dreams don't normally happens after reaching REM sleep, which generally takes 90 minutes. |

i had no idea how i got pregnant or who i slept with. the dream actually started with me finding out i was pregnant, and the rest of it was basically just trying to fill in the details of how it happened.
watching three episodes of Nip/Tuck before falling asleep probably didn't help much either. :stongue: |

isn't a hallucination that isn't drug-induced technically a dream? |

Nah. The brain is in two very different states in a waking hallucination and in a dream. |
