False awakening

False awakenings are when you think you have woken up, but in reality, you are still dreaming. It usually happens when you are very tired. In your dream, you will do everyday things like getting up and brushing your teeth, but you are still dreaming. Your dream will usually end when you realize you are still dreaming and wake up for real. Sometimes false awakenings can be really confusing because it can feel like you are really awake, but you will eventually figure out it was just a dream.
