I do like the overwhelming sense of relief you get when you wake up from a dream like that and realize it was only a dream. For me, the dream is usually either that I've done something that I can't take back (committed a crime, gotten myself fired, trashed an important relationship) and I spend the entire dream trying to fix it and only making it worse, or else I'm incredibly late for something very important and no matter what I do, I just can't seem to get myself together and get to where I need to be.
