Ugh, I wrote a huge long thing and it logged me out. I'll do this in parts then.
Throughout my life I've always had very vivid dreams. Ones which I can remember well long after I've woken, with few exceptions.
Here's one that isn't so much a dream, as a hallucination. Or maybe not. That's why I'm asking you guys.
So here goes
Every now and then, much more often when I'm sick with a fever, I will wake in a cold sweat. I'll get up, and in the shadows are silhouettes of tiny people. Not dwarves, I mean just small people. About as high as my knees. I can strain my eyes and my ears but I can never make out any features on their faces, or discern what they're saying. They always keep their distance from me, and as I get out of bed it feels like I'm moving through treacle. I feel compelled to get up and do something to try and ignore the whispering. Usually I'll just get up and get a drink, or go to the toilet. As I start to move though, their whispering gets louder, and they start getting agitated. They almost dance around me, circling but never coming close. Soon their previously passive whispering has reached an angry, aggressive screaming crescendo. I'm shaking by this time from fear, and usually that's where it stops abruptly. The nightmare is accompanied by a sense of absolute terror, and a slowed sense of time.
As far as what it actually is, I'm pretty sure it's a type of waking nightmare, although I'm not sure that's accurate. I am fully awake at the time, and have control over my body. It might be possible I could be sleep walking, and I wake up when the nightmare ends abruptly as I have often found myself in the kitchen or the bathroom, clutching onto something white-knuckled.
Does anyone have any insights? It's been happening my whole life, and each any every time it happens I am scared sh*tless.
Sorry about the wall of text guys, although I would like to post about some of my other dreams

It's just some routine neurological maintenance activity that your brain confabulates into images.
If you enjoy them, great. If not, just let 'em go.
if you havent....well here it goes:
basicly..wen you sleep...your body and your mind is unconsious,then you dream..having no control or say of what happens in your "non-lucid" dream.
but.....on the ther hand..when your experiecing lucidity...your body is unconsious (in sleep paralisis)...and your mind stays concious. pretty much what im trying to say...is that when your lucid..its exactly like real life,but you know your dreaming.
personally,it sounds like your having a lucid dream.
(seriously..look it up..its really interesting. and if you are lucid....you can train your mind to understand and reconize when that happens....giving you full control over your dream..leavin you with no more night terrors,you might wanna look that up too)
on the otherhand....you cood be sleep walking......inside of your lucid state of mind.....ya feel me?
I'm sorry to say this but I would like to have a dream like yours, sounds strange of me. :/
Im pretty sure ur doin drugs
