Question

Have you ever tried to find an object only to realize later you only dreamt you had it ?

Answer 1

Many times. Most of the time I'm half asleep and can't very much tell the dream world from reality. It is very hard to in a half-awake state.  

Answer 2

I remember this happening once, I just don't remember what I thought I had. But I do remember that I wanted to cry when I realized I didn't have it.

Answer 3

yeah my mum came in the to my room one night and i thought she asked for scissors so i was looking for them under my pillow and in my bed... only to realise in the morning she asked for a torch. i was convinced there were scissors in my bed and kept looking then realised i was dreaming about scissors that particular night.

Answer 4

Answer 5

yes, i was trying to find my ****

Answer 6

No....I haven't.  But I read recently that certain anti-depressants like Zoloft can give very intense dreams and can cause people trouble distinguishing between dreams and reality.  Are you on any psychotropic drugs or any meds at all?  If it just happened once I wouldn't worry about it, but if you feel like the line between dreaming and being awake is beginning to blur I would seek a professional opinion.

Answer 7

Yes, this is such a horrible feeling sometimes lol. But I only experience this a few minutes, before realizing I really do not possess such a thing haha! Good question...thought I was the only one.
