Anyone else experience this?

Well, this is kind of hard to describe, but I'll give it a shot anyway, something I've found interesting. It's when I'm waking up from a dream, usually later in the morning. Most of the time I just wake up normally like most people; the dream just ends and I'm awake all at once. Every so often, as I am waking up from a dream, I become aware of my physical body lying in bed, but I'm still sort of "in" the dream, like I can still see and hear the dreamscene around me. At this point I realize it is, or rather was, a dream, and i can still sort of see it as it slowly fades away and I fully wake up.

Yes, this has happened to me quite a few times. I've never really thought of it as still dreaming, but I am physically awake and can tell it. But I don't open my eyes, and in my head, I still continue on with the dream as it happened before I realized I was awake, and it just slowly goes away. It's pretty weird.

Exactly the same thing happens to me every now and then.

This happened to me a few times in a row when i tried to fall asleep listening to low level Theta Binaural frequencies. I was half asleep and in the middle of a dream. I opened my eyes and looked around my room. When i laid my head down again and closed my eyes, the dream came back almost instantly.

Yeah, this happend to me once, i woke up and i was fully awake and i could hear my parents (Who are no longer here) arguing. But i can barely understand what they were saying, but it was all in my head. I had my eyes completely opened and i was lying in bed listening. I don't understand how this was happening.

Maby its a yin and yang of sleep/wake brainchemistry between the two states that you are percieveing in consious dreamy awareness, i dont know but i get it aswell

[Bjernehed]

come to think of it it remindes me of my powernaps during day..

[CWHunt456]

I have it all the time! I find it as a very strong day dream... Just it's actually when you wake up...

Hmm, this doesn't happen to me in NDs, but it does in all my LDs. Everything gets a bit blurry, and the scene zooms out. I start watching it like someone watching a movie (I can see my body doing whatever it was it was doing). I can feel my real body in bed, but I'm still sort of dreaming. And then the dream switches more into conscious thought, so it's more of my imagination than a dream, and I wake up. Like I'm half-dreaming the whole time. I don't know if it's quite the same thing you experienced, but it's sort of wierd.
