[Actual advice needed - brain frickiness

I have always had issues with false awakening. For those who dont know it's when you try to wake up in a dream succeed and find yourself still stuck in a dream. For me it's been getting worse. Today I must have gone through around 12 layers of false awakening/possible sleep paralysis before actually waking up.

Should I be concerned? Is this another sign of mental illness. Discuss.

Edit:btw I am not making this up, although I dont mind joking about it, this genuinely happens to me

Yes you're right it is an abbreviation, which if it isn't immediately obvious discounts it as being somehow high school algebra. % PPM is "percent of parts per million" you don't start adding in a value to the abbreviation for some reason like it is a value of x.

this is an amazing troll, but if it is percent of parts per million isn’t it 1% ppm = 1/100/1000000

A percentage is out of the total value... it's not 100% because it is out of 100

ppm is parts per million. % is out if total. % ppm is out of total ppm. ppm isn’t like pressure, it just means /10000000(total). Just like %! So combining the two is weird, and would mean both times. A percent of a centimeter is 1% of 1cm which is 10mm, or .01cm. And 1% ppm is 1% of 1ppm which is .01ppm. But nobody uses % ppm because they just use ppm or %. 1% =10000 ppm.

ppm isn’t like pressure

This makes even less sense than the part where you turned 4% into 4 billion.

% PPM is just a conversion of percent volume to PPM. Regardless you don't multiply things by a unit of measurement, that's just r-slurred.

putting two units of measurement next to each other is multiplying. one kilowatt hour is a kilowatt times an hour. a foot pound is a foot times a pound. a man hour is a man times an hour. One channel-hour is a channel times an hour, etc. and a percent of a kilogram is literally a percent times a kilogram, 1/100 times 1kg. “Percent ppm” is meaningless in your sense of “percent in ppm”, it’s just a percent. 4% by volume. And you can’t easily reach 4% by volume unless you’ve locked yourself in a sealed car or something

Do you think you multiply your speed by sixty because it's per hour, too? I cannot think of how you've gotten to this point.

It's 4% of 1000000 parts.
