Strange Hallucinations...
Posted: 01-27-05 15:07pm

Hi,
i have a friend who confided in me that she sees people in her bedroom with her as she is about to sleep, and is able to see them even after she shuts her eyes. I read this could be a sign of narcolepsy, but she shows no other signs of this disorder. Any ideas what may be causing it, and why its happening?
Thanks

I have this too. I wake up in the middle of the night still dreaming yet still awake. I see things exactly as they are in my dream, but in real life. As real as me sitting next to someone (which happens a lot)

i woke once to find my exact self sitting on the end of my bed. We spoke for a while. I said it was hot, the other me told me, "well take your shirt off, stupid." I did, then I said I had to put it back on cause it was too weird being naked in front of myself, lol. When I woke up I thought it was just a weird dream, but it was a little too real, then I noticed my shirt was inside out.

I know it's only part of my dream because when I close my eyes, it's still there. I had a seizure during one of these so be careful for flashing lights, or going into light then dark too quickly. I woke up and there was lightning in my room, I closed my eyes and it was still there, and it started coming down faster and faster, then it felt as if someone took my arms and started shaking me, but with super human strength, too fast for any real person to do and it was uncontrollable. Very scary.
If you find out what it is let me know more, i've been suffering from this for years. :?

Its probably just a dream state. Its like some people thinking that they were being abducted by aliens. But its just a state of sleep when your brain is asleep but yet awake at the same time.
