This particular state happened to me often, but not as often over the recent weeks. Sometimes I cannot recall it until a while after I am fully awake. Usually I realize it the moment I become fully awake. The state is this: after sleep, I feel awake. I may even open my eyes. I have many thoughts. Sometimes the thoughts are about a dream I just had. Sometimes it seems like there was no dream before I came into this state.
I am aware of being in my room, and “feel” as thought I am more conscious than I am. The one distinguishing feature of this state is my lack of audio detection. I do not hear anything. I know this because my awareness continues from this state to when I am fully conscious. That is to say, I am thinking, and am aware of myself thinking, until at one moment I become fully aware of both my thinking and my surroundings, and all my senses kick in.
The transition has been quite drastic some mornings, as the second I become “normally” aware, I hear the birds (or w/e).
