    Not literally, but today I woke up and for about 2 hours was thinking I really should visit my grandad, as I hadn't seen him in ages. It's just that he's dead for about 8 years. I thought about it when I woke up before I got dressed, then as I was leaving I said to myself again in my head. I wouldn't have been groggy at this stage. It wasn't until later it clicked with me.
    Nothing like that has ever happened to me before.
    The only thing I'd had the night before were panadol. I'd no alcohol or illegal drugs taken.
    I find it really bizarre and can't understand it.
    Has anyone experienced this type of thing?

    Not exactly, but at a family reunion once I asked out loud to everyone, "How's Mike these days?", when Mike was our granduncle who had been dead almost a year.

    I had been away at the time, and to be perfectly honest, I totally forgot he was dead. Cringe.

    It could be previous use of alcohol/drugs, your brain cells are experience a slow, yet inevitable demise.


    Don't worry, by the time you're thirty you'll have no awareness left. These glitches won't bother you then - nothing will bother you, Teddy.

    Sh*t if that's the case I'd definitely be heading to the docs, any headaches, dizzyness. I heard there's slapcheek going around at the moment, it could be that......

    Maybe you are associating your grandad with an event or other occurrence that you might usually have spoken to him about when he was alive.

    Has anything happened to you of late that you associate with your grandad?

    I don't remember dreams generally, but I do miss all of my grand parents terribly. Teddy take yourself off to your grandads grave and spend some time there. Talk to him, it will help :)

    He pulled headphones out of a girls ear before, maybe this incident reminded him of the need to speak louder to the elderly as if they had headphones in?

    Teddy, being serious here but that sounds like grief.Sometimes people do "forget" that a loved one is gone.
    Would you consider talking to someone?

    Dr. Dexter is in the house.

    I just hoped you haven't killed anyone. Dr. Dexter has a strict set of rules which he must follow.

    I dont suppose you were recently on a tropical island living inside a hatch then decided to release a electromagnetic anomaly and inadvertently giving yourself time traveling mind powers.

    You probably just weren't properly awake Ted. My dad died two years ago. Sometimes when I'm on the way to my folks house I find myself thinking I wonder how dad is today. Then the realisation hits me.

    I had a freaky dream last week. I work up thinking I was married with a kid. I'm single. But it was really disorientating for about 5 minutes.

    A few years ago I had a similar experience. I was dreaming about my little brother and it was only a minute or two after waking I remembered I don't have a brother.

    Dreams can be strange things.
