When we dream, why does it authentically feel like we dream for hours and hours in this long pisode of a dream when in reality it only lasted for like 20 minutes or so?
Before getting woken up, I slept for like less than an hour, but in my mind, in my dream, it genuinely felt like it lasted for a day or so.
It's beyond my comprehension.

Take psychedelics and you'll get it in an instant.

Pretty sure all the meaning/memories of the dream are generated in like a minute or so before you wake up. You don't really experience the dream, you just remember it.

Another question would be, why do dreams feel 100% as authentic as our consciousness does in this base reality?
There's a part of me that thinks, if it doea feel one hundred percent real, then in a certain way maybe ithe is.
Maybe our minds function in two different ways: one in their dream world and one in the base reality world - but both are just as real as the other

Which still makes it fascinating. You're saying that the dream is generated in a minute, but it still feels like it lasted for a day?

This is so stupid
Just putting it out there

This is retarded and lucid dreaming isn't even a rare occurence.

Dreams don't last long, correct, however you do have almost hundreds of dreams a night that you don't remember at all. This is assuming you are in REM sleep for around eight hours. Any other questions about sleep/dreaming anons?
