The experience you described of having hyper-realistic dreams that continue like a TV show and even carry on months later can be fascinating and intriguing. While it's challenging for me to determine the exact nature of your experiences without more information, I can provide some insights into potential explanations.
Vivid Dreams: Vivid dreams that feel incredibly realistic can occur for various reasons, such as heightened emotional states, stress, or changes in sleep patterns. Sometimes, our subconscious mind can produce intricate narratives and scenarios that mimic real-life experiences.
Dream Recall: Some individuals have exceptional dream recall abilities, which allow them to remember their dreams in great detail. If you have a natural inclination towards remembering dreams, it might feel as if you are continuing a previous dream when you have similar or related dream experiences later on.
Dream Themes: It's not uncommon for people to experience recurring themes or elements in their dreams over time. These themes might seem to form a cohesive storyline, even if the dreams are not necessarily connected in the traditional sense.
Astral Projection or Dimension Shifting: Astral projection is an out-of-body experience where it is believed that the soul or consciousness leaves the physical body and travels to different planes or dimensions. Similarly, dimension shifting implies moving between parallel dimensions or realities.
While there are various anecdotal accounts of astral projection and dimension shifting, scientific evidence for these phenomena is limited. These experiences are often subjective and challenging to verify objectively. Some people believe that they are accessing alternate realities or dimensions during these experiences, but it remains a matter of personal belief and interpretation.
If you are genuinely interested in exploring astral projection or lucid dreaming (where you become aware that you are dreaming within the dream), there are certain techniques and practices you can try, such as meditation, reality checks, and maintaining a dream journal.
It's important to remember that dreams can be complex and diverse, and interpretations may vary depending on personal beliefs and cultural influences. If you find these dream experiences distressing or if they start to interfere with your daily life, it may be helpful to consult with a mental health professional or a dream specialist who can provide personalized guidance and support.
