I used to dream I woke up, showered, dressed, and preparing to go out to uni, only to wake up and realizing I was already late. I've also dreamed that I'm going to bed, but that seems to have little narrative purpose, so it has only happened a few times in my life.
I get a variation on this frequently. I'll dream I was sleeping and woke up and was late for something, then I'll wake up for real, heart racing, ready to scramble my way out of the house, only to realize it's 4:30 AM or some shit. At that point I'm just up, there's no recovering from that.
How do you know you’re not dreaming right now?
In this wretched reality we live in, does it make a difference?
