Is it normal to go on the internet in your head

I can't visualise anything in my head (tell me to see a square in my head when I close my eyes and it just doesn't happen!)

However when I get to that weird place where you are nearly asleep I can do it well and I find myself surfing the internet, really really really realistically, to the point I can do it for 10 minutes then realise I'm not actually on my computer and it was all just in my head.

Sometimes I get it with games too (imagine playing tetris in a fully functioning game as you are half asleep, but perfectly controlling the blocks and having no choice about which block comes next, just like the real game) It seems so weird for me as it is the only time I can see anything in my head (except on certain drugs) and it is really realistic!

    Hey there, that happened to me once... MANY TIMES! Well, I saw ME playing an old game of mines and making a level, hen I woke up, I downloaded the f*** game and looked up for that level, useless, just a "fantasy' as glory says on the comment above.

    It's kinda when you are in between reality and dream(fantasy).That happens mostly when you are in an activity for a long long time without stopping or resting.

    It has happened to me with different stuff.
    When I swim a lot, in the beach, river or in a pool; At night, i can feel the water movements and I get really nauseous and dizzy.
    When I play video games for hours without rest, at night I imagine Shooting stuff or just seeing game characters.
    Same thing happens with the Internet. I have thoughts that are not coherent.

    Our body just tells us that we need rest between long activities, go outside for a while, listen to music or just lay down and relax for an hour or two.
    With this, the brain will not be completely exhausted at night and we will know the difference between fantasy and reality.

    Our brain is a like any other machine. Sometimes it just needs to cool down.

    lol I love the answers I got. I used to be annoyed than I have 0 visual mind (if I close my eyes I cannot see anything, real or imaginary) but at least as I'm drifting off I can somehow browse wikipedia or play games :p (obviously anything learnt would be false, or deducted from what I knew before) But I sitll love it!

    I do this myself occasionally. Only happens right before I wake up.
