When I'm in that state, I don't remember old dreams, I create new ones that blend in with what's happening around me. Like I see that I'm talking to a frog, but the frog is saying everything on the TV that's still playing.

Woah, that sounds wild. My dreams aren't that trippy
If the frog starts singing the Ozempic song, do you punch it across the room?
There's an Ozempic song?!
No. You lick those. Makes for some wild dreams!
For me, it has been a decade of be tired, wake up later.
I've had maybe a dream a year which I actually remember, and they are always of being taunted and then myself attempting to save the taunter from doing something very foolish that will put them in great danger, and then they die gruesomely, and then I die horribly and jolt awake.
Definitely annoying if you like to journal that kind of stuff. I've thought about putting a notebook next to my bed
Yeah. One of my hobbies is making music and my brain always dreams up the biggest bangers when I'm half asleep. Unfortunately waking up and/or trying to input them into the PC makes them disappear almost instantly.
I start having pleasant auditory hallucinations. I’m also very susceptible to delta waves like white noise putting me to sleep. Might go together. 🤷🏼♂️
I thought it was when my eyes start drooping when I'm trying to get a couple of hours of gaming in before having to go to work the next morning
Wait, you remember your dreams?
I do, for the first 5 minutes of being awake. But I come back to the same places over several nights, so those dreams must be stored in there somewhere (although I can't access those mempries while awake).
Some do and some don't, it seems highly personal.
