I used to think it was SSRI’s. The Lexapro, Paxil, Lexapro doing it to me. I would have these dreams that I could not separate from reality. My therapist at the time told me it was lucid dreaming because at some point in the dream I would be able to say this is not real and wake up. The problem is I don’t take an SSRI anymore so it worries me that I can still dream this way. Am I going crazy? Sometimes I feel like I can’t even separate my dreams from reality. I wake up crying saying someone has passed away or my apartment burnt down believing they have because i dreamt it.

If it is Lucid dreaming, maybe you could hone it and turn a nightmare into a haven that you could visit every night.
Damn, I sound stupid. But yeah, I know how you feel actually. I had a four-layers deep, Inception-esque dream a few nights ago where my little brother died. I’ve been having panic attacks because of it. At least you’re not alone? :/
