RE: "Seriously brain, what the hell?" A Thread For Weird Dreams and Nightmares

Okay so I had a weird... not nightmare? Like, I was scared when I was in it but when I woke up it was very much a 'huh this is oddly intriguing' feel to it.
Anyway, in this dream, I was dead.
I was sitting in class with my old 2nd grade bible teacher(?!) and I realized that I wasn't breathing, my heart wasn't beating, and I was slowly getting cold. For all intents and purposes I was dead. But I was still /there/, walking about and being perfectly normal, except dead. Everyone freaked out for a bit but then as soon as they realized I was still just me, but dead, everyone calmed right down. My teacher asked if I would consent to being in an instructional film about What To Do If One Of Your Students Just Straight Up Dies, which aside from consent issues of being dead I found really creepy. And then at the end of the dream I was holding my breath to show that I didn't need to breathe anymore, and I found I couldn't just hold my breath forever, so either it was brain reflexes or I was becoming less dead?
Anyway I kind of feel like life would almost be easier if I was dead.
