Is it normal to have vivid dreams during a fever?
Whenever I have a fever, my dreams become extremely vivid and realistic, almost like hallucinations.
I’ve noticed this pattern for several years: fever = strange, intense dreams. When I’m sick with a fever and try to lie down or sleep, I start having very vivid dream-like experiences. I’m usually aware that they are dreams, but they feel much more real, intense, and “crazy” than my normal dreams.
The dreams often involve something I did recently. For example, if I played a video game earlier, I might dream as if I’m inside the game. This does not normally happen to me when I’m not feverish.
Is this considered a normal fever-related thing, or could it be something I should be concerned about?
