I had the strangest experience this morning that borders on terrifying. I lay in bed half awake and half asleep. It's not unusual for many people to hear real world events within their dreams. This experience was similar except that I had one eye open.
On the right side of my field of vision I was laying in bed, looking out my window (As I was in real life) but the rest of me, my consciousness and the left side of my vision was wandering around my room, preparing to go to work.
I realized what was happening when I tried to look around because I had suddenly become lost in my own bedroom. So I made a panicked dash for my bed, where my body lay. I have a loft bed and trying to climb it while one eye was disoriented/blurred/blind while the other was staring out a window was difficult. I climbed the ladder by feel alone.
I only woke when I had finally gotten up and lay in the position my body was in. That was strange too, because all that happened is my consciousness joined my body, and my left eye opened.
The part that scares me is you hear cases of people undergoing surgery but being conscious about it, trapped in their own body, and I realize now that I'm actually quite capable of that.
Very strange morning, I'll tell you.
