I wonder if anybody on this forum has had waking dreams? I have had two that I can remember. One when I was 9 years old. I slipped into it while walking to my friend's house. In the dream, I was doing just that, walking to her house.
So, I remained walking, but...in the dream, her family was in trouble, a gang of thugs was on their way to tie them all up and steal all their possessions. I had to warn them. So I picked up the pace, ran through their front door, and right up to their dinner table, where they sat eating.
My friend and her family sat there and looked at me, in wide eyed confusion. I can still remember that, 'snapping out of it,' feeling and the embarrassment. I slunk back outside, closed the door behind me and knocked!
Anyway...years later, same thing happened, walking somewhere, slipped into this state very momentarily. A car drove by and, in the dream and it was full of men with guns, aimed at me, so I actually ducked while they drove by, so the bullets wouldn't hit me. I snapped out of it, while I was ducking. This all took place within less than 10 seconds.
Anyway, bizarre. I have had so many weird things happen to me, mostly exogenous, from the outside, objectively real. But these incidents seemed to me to be almost like the results of a mild transient temporal lobe seizure or something like that.
Thought I'd share!
