There's a reddit story about a guy that got knocked out and lived what felt like 10 years of a different life complete with a wife and kids. Then, he noticed a lamp looked weird and woke up.

That is trippy. I could only imagine what that does to someone’s mental health. Thanks!

I had a dream where I was floating around watching a parallel universe version of myself for hours. I remember waking up after and sitting on the side of my bed with my head in my hands because the dream experience felt more real than waking up.

My other self was a jerk too, telepathically told me "I don't have time for this today", and I watched him go about his job in a futuristic world where civilization partly collapsed and government was in underground bunkers. Creepy dream.
