I constantly have very vivid dreams, to the point I wake up disoriented having no idea where I am or why I'm in the dark. It takes me a good 5+ minutes to realize I'm in my room.

Anyone else experience this??

You dreams are vivid, because your mind is processing vivid emotional issues that are occurring in real life.

Hello EternityUnleashed: No, I can't say as I've had this particular experience. Are you on any type of med's? If so I wonder if this could be contributing to your vivid dreams.

Years ago I had some surgery & they gave me a self-administered morphine drip while I was in the hospital. Once I was home, I had some REALLY VIVID dreams for a while. A number of years later I was in the hospital following an overdose &, there again, I had some really vivid dreams. So I do know, from personal experience, that medications can cause this in at least some situations.
