One time, I experienced hypnogogic hallucinations in math class where I was still aware of my surroundings, but instead of the lesson, the teacher just started saying the word "pop" over and over... same diction/pitch/speed as the lesson, but just "Pop, pop pop pop pop pop, pop pop pop, pop, pop pop." Also, a goldfish swam/few circles around him.

I had exploding head syndrome twice. I was only just going to sleep (I must of already been dozing off) when I heard a loud explosion from outside. I this made me panic and look out my window to look for smoke or other signs of a bomb or gunshot. To add on to my paranoia, the sky was a dark red. (I don't know why) because I was so sleep deprived, I thought that WWIII had started and I just thought "welp, this is going to happen" and crawled back into bed.

I'm wondering if I have exploding head syndrome because this happens to me regularly. Sounds like somebody's banging really loud. Usually it's once when it's the loudest. You wake up instantly and terrified, heart pounding. It happened to me last night but I had three loud bangs. Since it usually only happens once, I thought well maybe somebody was banging on the door. So while panting from being terrified, I start hollering at the door for someone to come in. At like 4 in the morning. Of course nobody was there.

Hypnagogia is my favorite pastime as I enjoy my mind in altered states. For me it’s mostly like daydreams but super vivid. It’s different from dreaming because I often struggle to recall dreams after a while. When I do this hypnagogia thing it’s typically in the middle of the day so everyone is awake and any sound pulls me out of it but I drift back into it within seconds and I can do this for as long as I want or until it’s completely quiet and I have nothing anchoring me to stay awake.

Once I laid down to sleep and pretty much instantly found that I was no longer fully awake. I knew I was *not* awake, but I was also aware of my surroundings. I somehow knew that moving would make me wake up, so I stayed still for a while, and soon began having auditory hallucinations. Somehow, the voices and sounds I heard reflected my thoughts (to a degree), so I could kind of control them. I was able to play certain sound effects and hear them, like the Roblox death “oof”. I eventually moved and woke up because I was starting to get scared of the giggling noises I heard. It was NOT sleep paralysis, I was able to break out with very little effort, so it must have been something else.

I don't experience hypnagogic states of mind, but sometimes hypnopompic ones - when you're about to wake up. I often think I'm at a different place from where I actually am (I might think I'm in other bedrooms; like the one I slept in at my grandparents' house when I was little, or the guest room in the house of a friend I haven't met in years), that I'm a different person (like, I'm in an alternative reality where I'm a knight or a dragonslayer or a princess), that I'm in the middle of doing something (I might think I'm hiding in a shed from assassins, and that I have to be absolutely quiet and lie completely still) etc. It only lasts for a few minutes at most, but it always leaves me with a sense of loss. It's a bit like losing yourself, because you lose the person you for just a short while thought you were.

I've had hypnagogic hallucinations for a long time, but I only recently learned they were an actual thing in the last few years. I've always described mine as "dreaming while I'm awake". I only get them when I've woken up in the middle of the night and am sick, usually nauseous, and I'm trapped in a distressing and repetitive hallucination for a couple minutes until I can realize what's happening and get out of bed. Throughout the hallucination I'll be half conscious, trying to fall asleep, trying to convince myself what's happening isn't real, and tossing and turning.

This is such an incredible explanation of all my experiences!! I have a bunch of “mini dreams” before I’m about to fall asleep. I experience this a lot when I’m trying to wake up but still super tired. I have an exploding head syndrome episode about once a week, and occasionally have short auditory hallucinations. The most recent one was a deep voice going “mm-hm” and it sounded so real I jumped up and couldn’t go back to sleep. I don’t know if it’s connected or related, but I’m also prone to lucid dreaming. I’ve never really tried to lucid dream, it just comes to me naturally. I remember my dreams almost every night too. I also experience “brain zaps” which is usually related to drug addiction, but definitely not addicted to anything lol, other than maybe caffeine. Either way, brain zaps feel very similar to exploding head syndrome experiences. Just my two-cents and experiences. Thank you for the video 😊

I used to hear a buzzing noise while falling asleep that would get louder and louder until it was deafening and I'd see a black dot surrounded by white that would get bigger as the sound got louder. I also sometimes lose my spatial awareness while falling asleep and I feel like everything is really far away. The most recent hallucination I had was while waking up I saw a giant spider leg on my duvet and spent the next hour looking for a tarantula in my room. Brains do weird things while they're shutting down...

I've had these dreams/illusions when I'm off to bed were it feels like I'm awake and I'm aware of my surroundings. It can be either whisperings voices, footsteps or things changing or moving. If I see a poster all of the details could warp and look more sinister. If I looked at my curtains they were slowly moving. Small objects on the floor could move ever so slightly. Some hallucinations wasn't visual or optical...more like I could sense something was watching me or I imagined that things showed up like hatches in the ceiling. As a kid it happened a lot and I was often terrified because I didn't understand what it was. I was often sweating and my heartbeat was so fast. Sometimes it felt like my bed was shaking or I was going to fell off my bed. I believed there were spiders or dark shadows moving around. I could move around freely and even leave my bed. Because of the stress I could be really scared of gong to sleep. Besides the hallucinations I was also a sleep walker and I talk in my sleep as well. Today these dreams are not as frequent or extreme but it happens and I'm a lot calmer about it now. It often helps to turn the light on- I also know that this happens when I'm stressed about something or have been sleeping badly for some time.

Wow well done guys! I'm an Electroneurodiagnostic Technologist, so I am basically an EEG expert and Sleep study(PSG) expert. This was a very good video, I even learned a little something! I never thought about how your background alpha in occipital lobes vs your frontal beta activity could correlate or somewhat explain hypnagogic hallucinations. Very interesting! It also happens as you wake up (hypnopompic). Children have something we call hypnagogic or hypnopompic hyper-synchrony where during their transition into/out of sleep they have these crazy bursts of high voltage slow activity. Sleep is very interesting and there's so much you can learn about it!

We are just so rare we aren't talked about. Last I checked, there were only about 20 schools in the United States for this. We do EEG, PSG, NCS, IONM, and EP. Neurologists need us so they may see how patients' nervous systems work. You would be surprised how many jobs exist and we dont even realize it. I got into it because a school near by had a program for it. It is a two year associates degree. Techs can do so many different studies, it may seem super specialized but we have several options within our field as well. I figured if I hated it, at least I had a good paying job and only two years down the hole. But here I am at only 22 with a couple years under my belt already and absolutely love what I do.

Well I would definitely go see a Neurologist to make sure you dont have epilepsy or something worse. AWS is super rare and I have not come across it before. But if you have CHF and sleep problems, ask any Dr to get a Sleep Study (PSG) done to make sure you dont have Sleep Apnea because that will make a huge impact if treated or not. Also during the Sleep Study they would be able to make sure you dont have anything funky happening while you sleep as well and make sure you do get sufficient REM and Stage III sleep.

I've struggled with sleep since I experienced the onset of Bipolar Disorder about 5 years ago. I get the hypnic jerks and Exploding Head Syndrome all the time, as well as occasional episodes of sleep paralysis and sleep walking. These episodes tend to happen more when I am anxious, manic/hypomanic, am falling asleep, or am aroused in the middle of a dream. I learned to deal with these things by teaching myself the practice of lucid dreaming through the help of Jody Whitely's KZbin videos. Now, whenever they happen, I am able to observe them with a detached interest and wake myself up if they become too frightening.

Same after my severe manic episode which led to my bipolar diagnosis I started having more hallucinations before I go to bed and after, and occasionally I'll have hallucination in the middle which is sleep paralysis. I went to the doctor and they asked if I heard any explosions or high-pitched noises and I said yes and they said that's a sign of exploding head syndrome, with further testing and monitoring the doctors found that I actually suffer from nocturnal seizures, which can be deadly.

2 weeks ago give it or take I was falling a sleep, and I was not sleeping already but I had the notion I was "dreaming" or having these so called hallucinations since I have them everyday. And usually it feels good, I mean physically and mentally when I'm on these limbos I feel like I'm the healthiest person alive. Just feels good and if I "wake up" from a noise or something I get a bad sensation in my body and I miss what I was "dreaming". Sometimes I remember it but usually I never do (I wake up a lot in these limbos since I have a fragile sense to noise at night). But anyways, 2 weeks ago I was on the limbo and I know I was dreaming with a place full of people, and I was being part of a conversation which I don't remember nothing, but suddenly I hear in the back of my right hear: "all of them" And the voice was so sweet from a woman, so real ( when I mean real I mean I felt like I had a person behind me in the real world like In my bed, like as a "ghost", so vivid I was tripping when I woke because I didn't know what to think) and so scary that i Instantly "woke up" kinda creeped out because I never experienced something so vivid like this. I mean I don't even remember noise from any of my dreams and I remember a lot of long dreams I have but no sound at all. The only sound I hear is between falling a sleep. Usually my brain makes tunes that I know I'm loving and I would love to get up and record them with my voice but I'm simply to tired. So music tunes that doesn't exist in the world and the woman voice saying "all of them" was all I heard until now. Fun fact: right after the woman says that to me in the back of my hear, I suddenly understood the subject of the dreams conversation I was on. I mean it's a feeling but I know it and the conversation was about exterminating all of those people inside the dream. (not including the group we were in) So yeah it was creppy feeling that the woman basically said to me, let's kill them all (or in this case someone asked: "who or how many?" and before that probably "who has to be killed?" which lead to the awnser "all of them" Craziest "dream" ever.

I've had this every night since I was a kid and it keeps me from sleeping and I end up jerking myself awake because i hallucinate something scary, I'll see faces, figures, or hear creepy sounds. It keeps me from wanting to sleep because as soon as I relax my brain trips itself out with imagery and sensations and sounds that don't make me feel safe. It's quite unnerving and it's probably the reason why I still have suspension of disbelief in things like monsters or supernatural beings because they feel so damn real to me. Very rarely do I get to skip this part of sleep and I hate it. Most of the time it's watered down or non exisistant is when I have someone with me because then I'm less on guard from the get go. But it still sucks regardless and I can barely sleep in my own room.

greg jones I've always been able to move though. Usually I have to, to get up and turn on the lights to check my room and make sure my room isn't full of the creepy things I saw, felt or heard. Although it does seem to have some similarities to my situation it definitely feels more like hallucinating than anything because as soon as I blink take a few breaths and turn on the lights it's gone and I turn the lights off and try to sleep again and it's back. It's always right as I relax, I get so close to falling fully asleep and as soon as I'm on the brink my body golts awake, feels something near me, hears a sound or peers around for a second and sees something out of either nothing or things already in my room that my brain turns into one creepy thing.

For some weird reason most of my hypnagogic hallucinations tend to be auditory rather than visual; usually they come as musical pieces I've never heard before in my life, yet sound better than most melodies I can come up with while conscious. Some time ago, I had one of these where I saw some kind of purple haze amidst some kind of... floating... lake-like thing, and some voices chanting in some strange language: _"A tei'i vestu va las kis,_ _A tei'i vestu so lanis,_ _A tei'i vestu va les ki aterra..."_ Of course, I realized I just HAD to use this in some of my art, like one of my fantasy stories or something, so I almost instantly started awake out of bed and rushed to my phone to make a recording of the "song"... I eventually made another recording of it that sounds more like the one I heard in my sleep... XD (It's here if you're curious:) soundcloud.com/corisparks/the-antikythera-machine-vocal-demo

Interesting! Those lyrics look Latin. My translations skills are really rusty, but... Of course, living in a Western culture, we do expect chants to sound Latin. I once had an experience where, I'd been playing The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker late at night, and I could still faintly hear the music after I'd turned it off. Also, once in a rare while, I'll have dreams where I'm composing and conducting music. It's not eerie like that, though: it's the most beautiful and moving music I've ever heard; I get completely swept up in it, and it feels like... Like I'm connecting with something divine; it's very spiritual. Of course, I can never remember the music when I wake up. I wonder... I wonder if there's any connection to the way I'm often much more emotional in dreams? Like, when my dad died in real life... It was hard, but I think I held it together pretty well; in fact, it was harder in the next few days. But in my dreams about it (both after and long, long before it happened in real life), I absolutely fall to pieces. Also... once in a rare while, I'll have a dream that feels hyper-real, where my waking life is the dream, and I know that even when I wake up, I can't escape the dystopian real reality. Like in The Matrix. These tend to stick with me for an hour or so after I wake up. Lucky for me that they're always different, or I'd really be freaked out about it. The reason I mention that is, if the emotional brain is especially active during dreaming... It makes me think that there must be a part of the brain that creates feelings of reality that can get switched on, too.

I'm a very spiritual person and Im positive that I lucid dream and can enter different realms in dream state. I can remember most of my dreams and what I do in them, I can wake myself up when I feel in danger in a dream and fall right back asleep in a different scenario because of wanting to leave the previous dream. When moments like that happen, it is scary but knowing that it was just a dream calms me... Or was it just? I've been researching a lot about lucid dreams and the hypnic jerks, sleep hallucinations, etc. And ppl can't seem to explain why this stuff happens. I believe its all connected to spirits, angels, demons, and whatever else comes to mind. I'm writing this now because I just experienced a jolted push directly on my forehead right before falling asleep/almost mid sleep and when I opened my eyes, there was something in my closet with green or red eyes/marks watching me in the dark. I hid under my blanket after looking for a few seconds and turned on my lamp. I can still picture it in my head, at this point I'm so used to these feelings that I don't get any reactions from myself. I dream about people aswell and being in crowds, interacting and having full on conversations. When I think about it, I look at myself in a mirror in dreams sometimes and I'm always a different person, or being. There are times where I would be so close to the ground, feel like I'm walking on all fours and even going through walls, flying and watching others from that realm. Who knows, maybe it was my dream self in the closet, lol. Theres a lot more I could add about my experience about sleep, spiritual awakenings and lucid dreams. I just wanted to put my little bit out because I think it's kind of cool to see and experience such things that our minds can't quite process.

Some months ago I had a sleep hallucination, basically I was awake curled up in my bed but with my eyes closed while feeling EXTREMELY uneasy, as I felt like i had full control of my body (I was conscious or at least felt conscious) but at the same time I knew my surroundings were off, so the first time with my eyes closed there was a extremely loud noise, I didn't want to open my eyes cause I was scared, I opened them anyways, everything was normal except for the sound but as the second I close my eyes again everything felt worse than before, this time instead of a sound there was a very loud white noise, I decided to open my eyes and I couldn't move, My bedroom had become insanely large, with minimal furniture and across everywhere (walls,furniture,everything) there was static(like the TV ones) Then, in the hallucination(idk if it was a hallucination or not) I fainted then woke up

I think I experience hypnagogia fairly often. When falling asleep, I will see two flashing images alternating rapidly. Most of the time, one image is an unsettlingly large object that takes up my whole field of view and the other image is that same object, but incomprehensibly small. Seeing those two images flashing back and forth makes me nauseous. Other times, the first image will be a very clean, white room and the second image is the same room, but covered in random dark colors, busy patterns, trash, and small unidentifiable objects. Those images make me sick too. There is an upside to hypnagogia - when going to sleep after a day of being at the beach or on a boat, I will kinda physically hallucinate? Idk if there's a word for that. Anyway, when I'm falling asleep I'll feel the rhythm of the ocean and the rocking of the boat, even though I'm laying in bed. It's a really relaxing experience and when I feel it I never want it to stop because I love the water so much

I’ve always had some very slight hypnagogic hallucinations, but after trying psychedelics, they turned into something way different. Those faint colored patterns turned into visuals that I saw while on acid, and they transform into photorealistic images, along with bright flashes of light, and they naturally progress into lucid dreams almost everytime I sleep.

I am not diagnosed schizophrenic or psychotic. I am 41 yrs old with no history of voices, hallucinations etc prior to these hallucinations which began a decade ago with sleep paralysis and has evolved into whatever is going on currently and for the last year or two. I hallucinate as I'm going to sleep but its almost always when I'm really really tired AND it occurs most frequently when I fall asleep on my back. I also have auditory hallucinations, like right now, where i hear a holy choir (singing those haunting songs without lyrics, just sounds). I often hear demons too, as tho somewhere a hatch to hell is opened and I can hear them down there. The sounds occur when I'm fully awake only, and can be at anytime. When falling asleep, I often feel like I'm falling downward thru the bed, and thru the earth, or floating around the room/house or being whipped around the room by my feet(??) by the demon that comes for me. I also see visions: grids, numbers, letters, nonsensical and repetative cartoon images and entire realistic everday scenes. I twitch very aggressively, feel like my brain is being electrocuted and i am frequently visited and touched by a demon that's trying to take me to hell. I dont see the demon tho (I only saw him in my mind's eye once), I only sense evil(??), feel or hear him, and it is always the same demon coming back for me. It's very disturbing, even as an atheist. The other night I tried to encourage myself to have a vision and I actually did. It was a cartoonist animated creatures scene. I'm gonna try to see a other vision as I take a nap right now.

Exploding head syndrome to me has been more like the loud snap of a huge static discharge. Maybe it's he perceived flash of light that makes me think that.

Ive had hypnopompic (waking) sleep hallucinations for as long as I can remember, typically 3-5 times a week. I never hallucinate as Im about to fall asleep, its always if I wake up in the middle of the night. The hallucinations never resemble anything Ive done or seen while awake the previous day. It can range from a figured shape in my room to one or several persons or animals moving around me, that are very clearly visible. Some of the more severe hallucinations include my surroundings completely transforming into something else. In these cases I can clearly see my furniture disappearing and I can feel and touch things that arent there. For example my room turning into an elevator thats trapped and I can walk around and feel the buttons on the panel. Almost jumped out of the window of a 3 story floor the first time I experienced this full-on transformative hallucination. If its simply people walking around my bedroom sometimes Ill have my doubt whether my roommates have come into my room. But when I see monster-like figures or giant spiders Ill usually just ignore it because I know its clearly not real. Ive become quite chill with it over the years. Often Ill stare at the hallucinations for as long as possible and just be amased by the details and that my brain is making this up. Ive been lucid dreaming my entire life also, and Ive read there may be some correlation between waking from a lucid dream and having hallucinations.

At that point I willed it back to the point where I was just gonna pick up my bags and changed it to pick up only one, and so I could get out quickly through the window. And outside I was on some kind of a roof so started going carefully to the left and I climbed in the next window before the police got out of the first one. Sadly, at that point my alarm went off so I've no idea wether I actually escaped. And again, I quite often have dreams like this. Actually, they're pretty exhausting.

It's really interesting to read other people's experiences with hypnagogia! Strangely, I tend to get auditory hypnagogic hallucinations when I'm stressed. One time during exam season in high school I was home alone, drifting off and heard my door slam excruciatingly loudly, I then looked up to see it was ajar as I always left it. I was so so scared lol. I also go through stages of waking up having been holding my breath (seemingly during the hypnagogic stage), my body wakes me up and I'm fighting for breath. Fun! But I will also occasionally hear close friends or family members reciting nonsensical phrases and I wake up laughing because they come out with really dumb stuff. So it's not all bad 😅

One time I was in bed hallucinating that I was asleep on a desk in school. There were the feint shuffling and coughing noises typical of a classroom, but the noises were repetitious and hypnotic like birds chirping in a forest near a gentle river. One voice kept saying, "I'm so sorry," the apologies sounding somewhere between heartfelt and relieved. Another voice, seemingly frustrated with his perilous situation, repeatedly asked, "What does eclectic even mean?" Maybe if I wasn't falling asleep in class all the time I would have known the answer to that question.

It's 7:09am as I am typing this and haven't slept. I tried, but before falling asleep I was seeing faces that woke me as they were pretty scary. The third of fourth one was through the blinds of my front room and an old lady from across the street was looking right at me smiling and not a nice smile, it freaked me out, a lot. I don't freak out easily, I'm not easily scared. Turns out I experience hypnogogic sleep a lot, I read about it first then came to this video, hypnic jerks can really make you jump sometimes, I've also experienced those too. Exploding head syndrome as silly as it sounds is very real. I don't often get it but it makes you jump. It feels like your head has popped like a balloon for a second. The sound for me is usually the sound mario makes when he jumps but lower, slower and bassy and feels like it's so bassy and powerful, that's what causes my head to explode. I've heard a man shout, bangs and screams also. Like the guy said in the video, it isn't that scary when you get used to it and realise. Imagine a sound being so loud it explodes a watermelon, imagine that watermelon was asleep and sentient. It feels like you're the watermelon. Anybody else get the exact same feeling? However, these faces I am seeing are not something I will get used to, they're horrible and are a recent occurrence, they've just started happening but three times in a week and two night in a row now. I never have nightmares, not since I've been a kid. These technically aren't as I'm awake and about to fall asleep, but they're equally as scary, if not more scary, in my opinion. Anybody else had experience with these and found anything helps? Bare in mind, sleep aid won't help me. I had 8mg of Xanax before this happened and I couldn't fall asleep. My mind is that active. Any suggestion would be nice, like quick meditation methods, or maybe how to stop seeing the faces after I've nearly fallen asleep and attempt again? Nothing spirituality related however, I don't believe in any of that. Just as I know many people believe seeing faces whilst falling asleep is seeing spirits or souls. If I lived at Hogwarts I'd give it a second thought, but I don't... unfortunately. Any help would be great thanks, even if just a small suggestion.

I find this really interesting because I've only been having this since about a year or so. What makes it interesting is that it started around the time I found out about aphantasia and that I have that. Maybe it's because I was thinking about it a lot at the time, but I noticed for the first time that when falling asleep, I'd see these really real and vivid snippets of images. Like, REALLY SEE them, like I imagine normal people without aphantasia can conjure images in their mind's eye all the time. It was a really surreal experience, and ever since, when I get hypnagogic images when falling asleep, I actually really enjoy and treasure it because it's the only time when I'm still (mostly) conscious and able to see clear images.

Whenever I get “hypnic jerks,” they are always on my right foot, they always involve me dreaming that my foot is slowly slipping off whatever surface my brain imagines I’m on, and they always startle me awake every time without fail. It’s happened so often that some part of my brain is actually able to anticipate when it’s about to occur again, but it still startles me even though my brain expects it. Weird

I hallucinate as soon as I start falling asleep often. I’ve been in class and within seconds I’ve seen a story flash behind my eyes. I’ve heard music, I’ve been jumpscared, I’ve heard voices calling me. I’m usually stilll conscious enough to think and have some bearing on what’s happening around me. I like to call it creative mode because I can make my imagination come to life before my eyes and I can still get myself out of it all be it a little hard. A few nights ago I was on my back and began to feel heavy and experience tinnitus and tingling. I felt sleep paralysis coming on and I didn’t sit up on time. There were 3 lady’s in front of me with sewing needles. I also had a needle. I think they were trying to use needles to like change there brain or something. I remember being poked with a needle and feeling the poke in my body and I was like aren’t you not supposed to feel in a dream? I remember feeling a weird euphoria as I told the women to not poke me and just chilling there with them. I had my mouth wide open in a weird position on my bed when my mom came in and I quickly got out of it to realize that it had only been a few seconds/minutes and I hallucinated everything and the audio was based on the video I was watching on my phone💀

If u want to remember your dreams better, write them down right when you awake or record a voicememo. If you do that for a while u will be able to remember them a lot easier and eventually even remember several different dreams per night!

Wow... thats the name for this weird stuff... O_O Good to know. I have that stupid flash of light, my heart starts beating extreme, I fall feeling... I can hear someone saying my name, if I had a noise day, with many people chatting around me, I hear them before I sleep, I play the games I plays before I sleep or even see everything like the movie I watched before (movement, 3D animation, frames, artstyles) ... every damn night. I am used to it, but if I am stressed, it is... really... annoying. Also, sometimes, if I wake up in the night, I wake up half. Like.. One part of my brain is still sleeping and I know it. It is horrible. I can't to math, I cant focus, but I know, I am awake, but I dont function the way I should. The perceive of the world is crazy and everything feels wrong. I have to hit myself, or wait long, or best, go back to sleep again... Maybe my brain is just weird... I can have a little bit of hypnagogia, if I daydream when I am tired. I then have a dream, awake, sitting, even with eyes open, with 80% control but some surprises... Thats actually very nice. Its like perfect role-play. xD

Ever since I was a little girl I hear these voices before I fall asleep. It can be voices from people I know or not. They have always some kind of animated talk. I can’t understand them but I recognise the voices. The strange thing is that I also hear voices of people I know that are dead. Sometimes it creeps me out so badly that I can sleep anymore. I have never told this to anyone because I thought I was crazy. Well now it seems to be normal. Still I’d like to sleep without hearing voices.

I have fallen asleep to snippets of dialogue and conversation, music, the occasional advertisement, and other miscellaneous sounds for as long as I can remember. It took me the longest time to realize it was unusual. The other aspect of my strange journey to sleep is the occasional psuedo dream. Once I've drifted past the voices, I'll start dreaming, ish. Frequently, my last thought process will get the scenario started, then it will drift off into dream logic, with vivid sights and sounds, as if I'm observing or part of a situation. If I consciously focus on it, because I am still kind of awake, it vanishes, and I'm just lying in bed again. If I try to move in the psuedo dream, my body actually moves, because that handy paralysing process hasn't happened yet, and that wakes me up. I have always loved this weirdness. Occasionally, yes, it can be slightly annoying, but I love that even when I haven't had time in my waking life for stories, they still make it into my sleep.
