The next morning, the patient wakes up in the middle of the night, having a nightmare. He's not sure what's going on, but he's pretty sure it's the same dream he had the night before, except that the house and clothes he wore that night don't seem to be relevant anymore. The next day, he dreams about the same thing again, but this time, he doesn't have to worry about the clothes or the house. He just has to take sleeping pills to get through the night.
