Hi, you guys, not sure anyone here can help but I give it a shot.
All my life (especially when growing up) I've had this state where I go in and out of I guess lucid dreaming. It feels uncomfortable. As I am going in and out I'm not sure what has happened for real (in reality) or in the dream. Is this common? For me to be in this "drunken" state is when I know I am getting closer to the stage where I as a child would experience vivid memories of things from the past I could not have known about at that age. When that would happen I would feel it before, few days or so that it was coming and it felt like this "suck" from behind, back of my head. I would be trapped in that state for hours. I would try to pull myself back to a clear wakening stage, but it was such a struggle, my family would be doing their best to "get me back" but I would slip right back. In that state I would see things with great clarity, details, and once I opened up about what I saw, how I saw it, thinking it could be past life memories I was told that nobody saw it like that. In a waken state I can still get them, these sort of great clarity shots, seeing the details, but they last a second, at most two. Then it is as if my brain never forgets that so it keeps replaying that from time to time, days or weeks, months or years in between the same "shot" or "scene" can suddenly appear.
The details, the clarity is too how I have seen ghosts, but they have like this "see through" layer to them. That is too how I've seen someone, still alive, but dreaming or astral projecting, but then I am in the in- and out state when seeing that individual. It always feel uncomfortable to me. When this happens I am afraid to go back to sleep or can't, really, til it's been a few hours and I never have any good dreams or dream anything that I can recall afterwards.
Am I the only one experiencing it like this?
Is there a way for me to "save myself" when I go in and out of this state, to "wake me up"?
