Are gibberish thoughts normal when falling asleep?

As I'm drifting off to sleep my thoughts often become entirely nonsensical gibberish that I barely pay any attention to. Is that normal?

    Hah, I do the same thing. My mom says very random things in her sleep, it's funny.

    Yep. I had one where I was trying to fall asleep an I thought to myself, "I'd read if I can only find my pineapple."

    All those thoughts are your brains way of cataloging everything that you encountered during the day, it makes no sense because it's moving very fast.

  • Thats how I know I'm about to fall asleep. I'll be in bed and then I realise I'm thinking of something stupid like purple rabbits and other random thoughts.

    this only happens to me if I'm dozing off somewhere other than my own bed, like on a plane or something
