Is this normal?

I have had issues with sleeping since I was super young. I used to sleep walk but have since grow out of it and I tend to have pretty frequent nightmares, but somethings that bothered me a lot recently is something I’m not sure is a normal occurrence and I’m just overthinking it. The gist of it is, is that I commonly will start awake from a dream like how I usually would from a nightmare, but in these cases they’re not usually nightmares. I’ll just wake up from a dream and still feel like I’m in it. Like my brain can’t process I’m awake. I’ll respond to a question from the dream or try to finish the activity within it. Even physically feeling and hearing stuff from it (sometimes I’ll even wake up from feeling pain in a dream and still feel it after I’ve fully woken up) the scariest one being waking up from an earthquake in a dream and my bed still shaking for a few seconds after I woke up. I asked my family if there was anything shaking the house and they all said no. I often remember these occurrences afterwards as I always feel embarrassed by them so that would rule out something like confusional arousal right?? Is this normal??
