>stream of consciousness ends
No it doesn't, it's just another form. You can still have the external world influence your dreams like for example lights during lucid dreaming or even sounds like alarms. And speaking of sound, the part of the brain that does audio processing still does its job https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11586671 so if that's the case why are you assuming there is a complete interruption of conscious experience
>person who wakes up is not the you who went to sleep
Only if you assume souls don't exist and the above is irrelevant. But then every new thought is a different person because it's a different mental state caused by different electrical signals so you're fucked

I cant cope most of the times I rope.
Just enjoy the ride and let the atoms arrange as they will.
Pisses me off to no end.
It is what is.

>nearly drown and get revived

You are now legally a new person all your debts are erased because consciousness was suspended.

This is the retarded bullet materialists have to bite.
Hence why materialism is wrong.

philosophical implications of sleep paralysis or being conscious while the body sleeps?

>your dreams
You don't dream for most of the night

It doesn't end. It is just suspended.

That's not how this works.
Radio signals aren't created by electrical impulses in your radio receiver.

That white noise you hear, the static on your old TV?
It's a natural part of the universe itself.

we are constantly learning and experiencing new things so does that mean we are constantly dying and being replaced by a new person as our brains are constantly changing?
