Why is this happening 😭

Question

Lately I’ve been dreaming a lot when I sleep, well all last night I feel like that’s all I did when I woke up this morning my face & fingers are all swollen I’m tired asf and weak anyone know why this is?

Answer

Those things may or may not be connected.  Since dream sleep occurs right around the part of your sleep cycle when you are most likely to wake, it’s normal to sleep, then dream, and then wake up only to feel like the dream lasted the entire time you were asleep. 
However, the level of brainwaves required for dreaming only occur a few times per night and last for about an hour (sometimes more and sometimes less depending on how much non-dream sleep you’ve had). So, as long as you slept more than 4 hours, you had at least two normal sleep cycles. Bloating or swelling can be caused by a number of issues including (chronic) lack of sleep. Same for feeling tired after a good night’s sleep. 
If I had to guess, I’d say you’re coming down with something (probably a cold or the flu), which would explain swelling and tiredness. Being ill can even cause you to have more vivid/more stressful dreams, which make you more likely to remember your dreams, which make it feel like you had only dream sleep.
