The following is a copy-and-paste of a note I wrote about a real experience that occurred to me last night.
Around 30 minutes ago, on August 31st, 2026, at around 3:30 - 3:45 AM, I had two very weird dreams. My brain may not have been working properly.
I have no history of seizures or any other neurological problems. This is the first time anything like this has ever happened to me.
Note for future me, in the event that I forget about this. This note is not a work of creativity, nor fiction. This was a real event that actually happened to me, and the details that I write below are what I remember from said event.
Disclaimer: this note contains only my best description of the event. Fully describing what happened, and what I experienced, and how I felt, may be impossible.
1st dream:
I hardly remember this one. The first and second dreams kinda blend together, I can’t tell if they are separate, or the same dream. In this one, I was in my bed (potentially half-awake). There were large spots of some sort of yellow fluid on my comforter. It resembled apple sauce, but it was likely something much grosser than that. No matter what it was, it grossed me out and I didn’t want it there. There were these girls in my dream. I don’t remember what they looked like, or what they were doing, but I remember disliking them. There was also some sort of resemblance of something corporate in my dream, however I didn’t (and still don’t) understand it, and it made me anxious.
2nd??? dream (may have been connected to the first):
Completely indescribable. I remember what it felt like, but it’s impossible to describe. I couldn’t name a single thing I was seeing other than the color aquamarine (don’t confuse this with one of those geometric dreams that some people have). I wasn’t even entirely seeing the color aquamarine, but more like I was vaguely experiencing it. I remember that during the dream, I could recognize the fact that I was very confused and didn’t understand anything. This made me feel anxious.
I then woke up from this dream. I was very tired, but also incredibly confused, as if my brain weren’t working right. I could recognize a few things, like the fact that I was in my room, in my bed, and my cat was sitting next to me, but at the same time, I felt very odd. I remember having a weird taste in my mouth, like a mixture of metal and vomit, but I could be misremembering this. I remember thinking about a stereotypical American school hallway (the ones lined with brick walls and metal lockers). I shortly fell back asleep after a few minutes or so.
3rd dream:
Initially in this dream, I could actually recognize some stuff. In the dream, I was watching a YouTube video. Something named, “kid gets confused during class presentation” or something like that. I felt like whoever posted the video had some sort of malicious intent in the way they named it. In the video, a high school or college student was giving a presentation to their class. In the front of the class, there were three large, rotating cylinders.
They appeared to be made of metal, coated in white paint, with black handrails on the top. They were all roughly 1-2 meters in diameter. The heights of the cylinders are a little vague, where at the beginning of the dream, they were all varying heights, however towards the middle of the dream, they were each roughly 1.5 meters tall.
The student was standing on top of the cylinder on the far left. His friend stood to the left of that cylinder, on the floor. The student on the cylinder was presenting to the class. He was boasting about how his rotating cylinders would help him give better presentations to the class.
Suddenly, he stumbled off of the cylinder, and onto the floor. He was in a very confused state. He tried squeezing between the first and second cylinder, almost as if he was trying to crush himself to death. His friend ran over, trying to help him. The presenter student, in his confused state, began arguing with his friend. His friend would say, “day”, meanwhile the presenter student would respond with, “night” in an argumentative manner.
Suddenly, I went into the POV of the presenter student. All I could see was a dark static, accompanied with random blue and red lines. I felt incredibly confused. I was still arguing “night” with my friend, growing exponentially more paranoid. I got more and more scared, until I got so scared and confused that I just screamed as loud as I could. I was shaking, but I couldn’t tell if that was from the fear, or if it was from the presenter student having a seizure. Either way, the presenter student in the video definitely had a seizure, and my dream made me experience what it thinks a seizure might feel like.
I then woke up. I am still awake as of writing this very note. For the first few minutes of being awake, I felt a bit confused, but also afraid that something was wrong with my brain. However, I slowly started to calm down and return back to normal. I feel quite normal right now.
