Anonymous research participant

Zhang & Wamsley 2019 Final (2023) · Zhang & Wamsley 2019/Data/Reports.csv; data row 15 (header excluded); complete Text of Report field

Oh I remember. I remember feeling a little bit angry. I remember I was in the hall, and I was trying to make something in the kitchen, and I think the fire alarm went off and then my RA came in, and he wanted us to go out...out... to move out. And I was feeling kind of angry. I don't know it was kind of like the short dream I was kind of having. And I was feeling angry going out, and then I was explaining to him that I couldn't go out because I was making some food in the kitchen. And then he kept insisting that I had to leave because the fire alarm had been set off so I had to leave. And I just like still left, I just decided to leave. But I remember feeling angry in that short dream. I'm done.

Source & context

A deidentified English report collected after a sleep awakening in the Zhang and Wamsley study. Some reports describe brief dreamlike imagery rather than a complete story; waking-only rows and no-experience reports are excluded. The complete source transcript is preserved except for explicitly documented bracketed privacy substitutions. This is a report, not a new community submission, a distinct-person count or a claim that every report is an independent dream episode.
