Is it normal that i mistake dreams for reality, and vice versa?

I have an extremely vivid imagination. For example, I can imagine walking down the street and seeing all kinds of changing scenery as i walk, without even having to decide what is going to show up next as i'm walking. All my imaginations are so vivid that they apear to me almost like reality. My dreams are even more vivid. I have dreams almost every single night, and almost every one is increadibly realistic. One time i had a dream that i lived an average day in my life, and when I went to sleep in my dream, I woke up in real life. Sometimes, in real life, i'm not sure if i'm dreaming, or if it is real. I'm almost positive this isn't normal, but i want to know exactly how unnormal it is.

    First its not unnormal its abnormal. Second this sounds like this has the possibility of becoming dangerous. I use to have this happen to me a lot and it was driving me insane. When it happens 24/7 its scary since you are not sure how to react since you cant tell if you are dreaming or reality. For me its especially dangerous since in dreams I do stuff like cut myself. I would see a doctor. I had this same thing awhile back and I have to suffer through it a few months before it went away. I told my parents and they didn't know what to do. They said it was just dreams and it didn't matter. I was scared I might kill myself or something since I thought I was dreaming.

    Sometimes I can't work out if I'm awake or still dreaming.

    I too have vivid dreams. Sometimes I remember something, but I don't know if it was something that really happened, or if it was from a dream.
