Vivid and Horrific Dreams During the Day

I’m not sure if anyone can help me but, it might be an effect of my depression or something else, but during the day I get “dreams” (I’m not exactly sure what to call them) they are really vivid/realistic and very horrific at times. I’m not sure what to do about them, I’m not even sure what to call what I’m experiencing

      That sounds like intrusive thoughts. I daydream constantly throughout the day and my thoughts are very vivid and photorealistic (I think in pictures like Temple Grandin). Sometimes those thoughts can be very disturbing or intense. I would talk to your doctor or therapist about intrusive thoughts.

      I call them night terrors since they feel real but aren’t

      I get these dreams too when I’m really anxious or depressed. It helps talking about them with someone and understanding that they are just dreams that is all

        @Rosy_Izzy do you know what they’d be called? I’ve tried to do research but I can’t find anything.
