Realistic Dreams and Emotional Drain

I’ve been the same way since I was a child. I can feel emotions in my dreams to the point I wake up crying, screaming, shaking, etc. I have the hallucinations too. I also lucid dream sometimes and know when I’m dreaming quite a bit.

Yes I wake and have to sit there for a minute because I don’t know whether it really happened or I dreamt it!! I also have hallucinations and talk to “myself” but I am talking to someone as I’m falling asleep or waking up and I’ll be having the conversation out loud. I also have to check my phone when I get up because I sometimes have dreams that I received texts or calls and it never happened!!

Hello I also have Narcolepsy with Cataplexy your dreams sound to me like they could be hypnogogic hallucinations I recently had one I could swear was a dream but it fit all the criteria i could hear feel and see things as though they’re real! I recently had one so vivid and real in which a group of men did..well just say unspeakable things to me and because I could actually feel like I was experiencing it I was in a horrible state for weeks my EDS has also gotten worse as I’ve gotten older
