When I am woken by the alarm at 6:10, I have this strong feeling of loss and desolation that lasts for about ten minutes. I'm pretty sure that I am being torn from a really good dream back into the waking world, and it gets me down for the first few minutes.
greygirlbeast refers to this as dreamsickness. It's a useful term.
The hell of it is that I can never remember the dreams--I can only remember I felt happy and caught up in them.
I went through a period last year of dreams in which I was spending time with all sorts of fascinating people who didn't exist—I would remember this just as I woke. That was not comfortable.

There's a story in that, I'm sure. Because clearly they do exist, in some way.
