I mean like: How long does it take before you brain goes: oh shit, I exist… I remember, I am a living thing, human, my name is [■■■ ■■■] and my current location is [■■■] and oh shit I’m late for [work/school/event] (or if its weekend, its like: oh… nothing’s happening, life is boring)

Like you know what I’m saying, like the Terminator HUD thing after it reboots and it takes a few seconds before it can identify a target and then recognize its mission… that type of thing.

Or do you wake up and within 1 nanosecond realize the state of your existence?

    A matter of seconds, but I attribute this to my time in the military. It is VERY hard for me to fall back to sleep once I’ve woken up because my brain is like “It’s GO TIME!” instantaneously. I could wake up, walk straight out to my car, and drive it safely if I had to.
