Default I may still be asleep

This morning I got woken by my alarm, and did the usual half awake rolling over to turn it off thing.

Only before I got to turn it off; the alarm went off and woke me up.

A little dazed and confused by this, I looked around, rolled over and tur.... the alarm went off and woke me up

Errr.... the radio is on now, and I'm looking around at the dark roo.... then the alarm went off and woke me up.

I'm now lying on my back looking up at the ceiling and had a lucid dream about being asleep and then the DAMN ALARM WENT OFF.

I've not been woken up yet and had a full day at work, so I think the last one was genuine.... It was very loud and clear and sounded very different to all the other ones.

So are you lot real or the result of my deranged imagination?

Been there bought the t-shirt. I've dreamed my alarm was going off, woken, only to hear it start seconds later.
I've also dreamed I was in an old fire engine, complete with bell, woken, and the alarm, complete with bell, went off seconds later.

Can't explain it, something to do with deja vu?

I do lucid dream quite alot and have the full colour surround sound experience... one time I woke up, had breakfast, watched tv, had a shower, got ready for work, stepped out the door... and woke up.

That did my crust for the whole day. I kept expecting to wake up

Either there is a dog in the bed with you or there seems to be some excessive wanking going on

Crikey, I nearly posted about dreaming about my alarm going off! I've done it three times in a week or so! This morning I woke up just before my phone did a full battery beep thing!

Done that:

I dreamt that I'm in bed and I hear my car alarm is going off;

I wake up, and my car alarm is going off.

I get up, reset it, go back to bed and back to sleep.

Then I dream that I'm in bed and my car alarm is going off....

I wake up, and my car alarm IS going off.

Repeat ad-infnitum until the morning. That wasn't a good night's sleep.

I have had sleep paralysis a few times and it is kinda scary but awesome at the same time..

"the paralysis state may be accompanied by terrifying hallucinations (hypnopompic or hypnagogic) and an acute sense of danger.[8] Sleep paralysis is particularly frightening to the individual because of the vividness of such hallucinations.[7] The hallucinatory element to sleep paralysis makes it even more likely that someone will interpret the experience as a dream, since completely fanciful, or dream-like, objects (often described as looking distinctly demonic by those who experience the paralysis)[citation needed] may appear in the room alongside one's normal vision. Some scientists have proposed this condition as an explanation for alien abductions and ghostly encounters.[9] A study by Susan Blackmore and Marcus *** (the Blackmore-*** study) of the University of the West of England supports the suggestion that reports of alien abductions are related to sleep paralysis rather than to temporal lobe lability"


OH HAPPY DAYS

Apparently I also respond if someone talks to me when I'm asleep Yes, my ex would talk to me about what we would do today, or ask me to do something and I'd answer back with a seemingly well reasoned response.

I then wake up, and then go about my business. Totally ignorant to the fact I'd just agreed to take her clothes shopping today.

Yup, took a while before I figured out what the hell was happening.

I woke up this morning at hit the snooze button as normal, then woke up a while later when it went off again and snoozed it again, I then woke a wee while later and thought it hadn't gone off so I'd slept in but luckily it just hadn't went off yet, but I had a few panicy seconds trying to find out what time it was then the pleasure of going back to sleep for another 10 minutes.

Try having a dream that you can't get to sleep, takes a while to work that one out!
