My dreams last night were a scurry of intense events, many I barely remember. What I do remember most was being in an old room, no carpet, dirty walls and floors, almost like a bathroom in a sense. I was sitting alone waiting for something I believe and suddenly I started to notice the entire room, perhaps even the earth below was vibrating strongly. The force intensified quickly and to the point that I was rendered immobile and unable to move, paralyzed by this intense vibrating force as I felt it coursing through my body like intensifying shocks of electricity. Just when I hit the point of absolute panic, I suddenly woke up into the real world but something wasn't right. I noticed I was having trouble breathing and my chest was constricting with horrible anxiety. I really don't understand what happened but I think I had stopped breathing and this was perhaps my body's way of reacting to it? It was very scary. It took me nearly an hour to return to sleep. The rest of the evening went on with intense dreams, scattered images, etc. I remember one occasion where I was testing myself in my sleep to see if I was truly awake or still in a dream world as I was remembering the fright I had previously when I woke up unable to breath. Somehow I had convinced myself I must have been awake and carried on.... of course, I realized when I truly did wake up this was not the case..... or.... was it? Maybe even now, I'm still asleep waiting to wake up....???? Maybe?
