I suffer from sleep apnea and although I don,t notice it as much these days I stop breathing and wake myself up every few seconds (snort).
I have noticed that when I wake up I fall back to sleep and continue the same dream and the funny thing is I seem to know I am dreaming and can
control what I do in my dream until a few seconds or a minute has passed and I wake up again.
In my dreams (which are very real and vivid) I can make myself fly, go up to a person and push them over, punch them, take off there clothes
............
Anybody else have this everyday experience?

I have this also.
Because you stop breathing for about 1 minute and Gasp! for air, you actually stay in your dream cycle and have "lucid dreams"etc.
Try to "(if you can) take longer breaths," the dreams last longer and are more exciting. You fly, have strength, and wish you could stay
dreaming!
You know you are dreaming, but create events, its great! Its like its real but you know its not.
I,ve woken up several times, brushed my teeth, made coffee, got dressed and realised I was still in bed,
Apnea is the KEY.
Go to a sleep clinic! Unless you like your dreams as I do?
