Can't differentiate between dreams and real life

So this has happened to me on and off for a few years but recently I've had another long spell of not being able to tell if something happened in a dream or whether it was in real life and I'll have to double check things a lot to make sure or like really think about it carefully to remember. I'm not really sure why this happens. I sleep a lot and generally feel very tired all the time - this has been going on for about 4 months however my bloods are all normal so I don't think there's much physically wrong with me.
My dreams are generally very life-like and 'real' which is why I sometimes get confused if something happened in reality or not. Some example are like texting someone something or receiving a message and then having to check if I actually got or sent a particular message. Also it might be misplacing/moving things or even buying things online that I have to check for in case I did it in a dream or not.
Another thing to add is that I sleep walk and talk a fair bit too. Not every night apparently but probably around once a week at its worst and can get up and wonder around the house or become seemingly distressed. I don't actually remember any of these though, I'm just told this by whoever's in the house during the night.
Would be interested in knowing if anyone else experiences these things. I'm also wondering whether this heavy dreaming might contribute to me being so tired during the day too?
Thanks a lot!

Are you on any medication such as a ssri?

Well, with the mixing up dreams and real life - I can relate completely. I wouldn't say it's normal - I only know one other person who does this - but I wouldn't say it's anything to worry about, just a sign you have very vivid dreams. I avoided a friend for a day once because I thought we had an argument but then I realised it actually happened in a dream sooo yeah, it can be really irritating.
With the tiredness, if you are super tired all the time that might be something to go to the GP about, cos it might be unrelated (like anaemia or something), or it could be stress or something, which would make sense if the dreams are worse at the moment. I'm not a doctor so always go get professional help if you are worried.
Seriously though - mixing up dreams and life can be so irritating, I have complete sympathy there. Don't worry, you're not alone!

Are you a Pisces? Just wondering lol. It would be funny if you were.

No I'm not haha. How come?

I also can't seem to concentrate on things anymore. Like I want to be productive and get things done but everything just gets blurry after a few minutes of working/concentrating and my mind just wanders an I can't
