Do you ever have memories that might be dreams or might be real?

Last night, I had some weird dreams. There were about things that happened during the previous day, including swimming with Horse Jr. and practicing music with the rock 'n roll boys. When I awoke this morning, I couldn't remember for sure whether some of things I was thinking about were reality, or from my dreams. Now, I thnk I have most of it sorted out but I'm not 100% sure.

@thehorse I gave up trying to sort dream from reality a long time ago.

I too posted a discussion on similar experience with me. I felt as if it was a hallucination and it took me sometime to come to reality

Were you finally able to separate the dream content from reality?

@arunima25 Sometimes when I'm just waking up, I think I'm somewhere else, or that I'm fully awake. But I'm really still dreaming. A lot of people don't know that REM sleep is actually very light sleep, not deep sleep.

I often mistake my dreams for reality... or may be something is real and I forgot.

@TheHorse Many times (too many times) I have premonitory dreams. When I see something bad in a dream I immediately feel anxious wonder when this is going to happen.

I remembered a dream from last night or the night before while I was driving today. Something in the real world reminded of the dream. I was then able to recall much of the dream, and ponder what it meant.

Ah, the good old Freudian "wish fulfillment" dream.

I have as well. I do try to "analyze" my dreams. They're there for a reason.

@TheHorse Some I have had I understand and do not need to analyze but others I do not know about them.

It happens a bit, but after a few minutes to wake and clear my head I realize it was just a dream.

@Bensen32 The first thing I ask mysef is, Do I have to get up and work? Or can I just lie here for awhile.

It was odd for me. I suppose I was "processing" some of the things that had been discussed the day before.

Great question. Harde for me to answer because in my dreams I am remembering persons, places or things that were a part of my life.

I don't believe I get my dreams mixed up with reality but who can be sure?

This is a common problem with many people. Sometimes dreams seems to be real. And take time to come out of it. Really its weird. But some of the people have a thought that if you shared your weird dreams, it will never becomes reality.
