(E.g. an ex-girlfriend of mine who would stay angry at people who had been mean to her in her dreams, despite knowing that it had just been a dream.)
I don’t have that bad a case, but sometimes I notice an emotions from a dream continuing into the next day. I drop them when I realize they’re from a dream—but now I realize that I only do that when something reminds me of some detail from the dream and I understand the source of the emotion. Scary thought—how much of my emotional life is literally dream-based?
I’ve noticed sometimes that I think I’ve done something or I have something, but it was only in a dream. I worry that this will one day affect something important, rather than like last week my plan to have grilled cheese for lunch (I had already eaten all my cheddar cheese).
