The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at You Know, That Thing Where.
Definitely the closest! What I'm looking for is when "this is a dream" means "this has driven me to a breakdown", but that trope and mine will make good Sister Tropes. Thank you!

You're looking for the Madness Tropes here:
For instance a character going into denial of reality rather than accept some traumatic event would be the overlap of Despair Event Horizon and Heroic BSoD.
Brought to TLP. Thanks!

A devastated character starts to think they're just dreaming.
Pinch Me and That Was Not a Dream are not it. We don't have this, do we? I want to make sure before I bring this to TLP.
