im talking about border sleep/wake up state here.
for example few days ago when i was falling asleep and i had this typical "changing the radio stations of thoughts" thing going on. there was this thought about me doing something i couldnt do just when i was falling asleep and i thought that i need to help myself in this thing(like i was looking at myself as other person who i need to help)(i dont remember it clearly what it was, but i remember there was a table and there was some object with a problem that i had to solve, like couldnt figure out how to open it or something). this thought struck me for some reason and i went back to waking up state(i didnt technically fall asleep before, but i definitely was on the border). i have never thought anything from this perspective and i started thinking about it.
i strongly believe that there is a psychedelic neurotransmitter that causes us to dream. psychedelic substances make the brains work differently and effect your thoughts like that, in mbti terms they change what functions you use and can make you jump into using totally different function in a split second and therefore showing you different perspectives, they also can bring the unconscious to the conscious.
this was exactly that type of totally unknown perspective for me. i mean i never think that i have to help myself in anything, but i have heard people say that kinds of stuff and i started wondering if other people see this perspective naturally or have had these shifts of thinking perspectives when falling asleep or waking up.
this wasnt the first time im able to view things from slightly different perspective when going to sleep or waking up and still half asleep, but this was clearly the strongest one. like i lost the normal perspective of viewing myself when i have a problem and it was replaced with the opposite, just for a split second.
or maybe this is that i only think this way in totally unconscious way, and this way of thinking popped into my conscious thinking because of the state i was in?
anyone experienced something similar or just want to speculate this?
