It's around 9am here in the UK, and for the past couple of hours, I've been in that weird middle ground between being awake and going back to sleep.

As such, you tend to think/dream some pretty weird stuff. I can't remember a lot of specifics, but I know one of them involved me trying to remember a cat we've never had. Made me a bit anxious as I thought I was losing my memory for a little while before I snapped out of it.

Anyone else have any similar experiences?

Hi NC

I get these feelings all the time especially when my anxiety is high.

I try and keep myself active when I feel that way to help take my mind of things and either listen to some music or watch a film.

NC,

Oh gosh...I get some crazy 'stream of consciousness' thoughts/dreams in that strange in between state!!

I know they are harmless, and kind of get a laugh out of them now.:)

Try to switch your focus from worry regarding them...to wonder at what your creative brain can come up with!

I laughed about it with my mum this afternoon. I think falling asleep listening to anything other than my TV or ambient music has a funny effect on my dreams.

I've been trying to put my creativeness to use but have hit a bit of a stumbling block.

OMG< I had such a nightmare last night, it was really graphic so I won't go into details here, but it really upset me. I had to get up and get on the computer for awhile as I couldn't fall back to sleep.

IDK how much validity there is to this site...

...but if nothing else, it has given me something to do when awakened and curious/scared by a dream or nightmare...
