I had a dream a couple of nights ago in which I heard an alarm going off but my phone was malfunctioning and the alarm wouldn’t stop. Then I realized that it was my actual alarm and woke up.
I have also had some dreams in which I had to use the bathroom and I thought that I had actually woken up to do that, but I was dreaming.
It’s a pretty common dream. I’ve had mornings where I “woke up” several times before deciding to stay awake hours before my alarm went off
