For example, im falling asleep in class, church, or during tv when my head goes down and literally during that Im already catching these small scenes or dreams and im not even completely asleep yet. Ive only had my eyes closed for like 5 seconds! Its like im programmed to having dreams that as soon as my eyes close, I see these images or scenes going on. The worst part though is I cant remember them! when they just happened! I just close my eyes and already having dreams and as soon as I open my eyes Im like wait... what happened? Annoying.

    Hmm..maybe you enter R.E.M. really quickly but I'm not fully sure. That happens to me too like when I'm on the bus or at school. I hate it though because I always wake up too quickly and sometimes they'll be good dreams (which I rarely get)

    Seems like some sort of meditation. You're probably just in a really relaxed state when these images come to you.

    Yeah I always get that, it can be annoying especially if I wake up with a jolt and can't remember

    Ah! yeah normal. But normally if I fall asleep I forget them by the morning. But anyways its called hypnagogic imagery. It sorta starts out as lines and patterns and slowly builds up into a scene or a story, or something.

    Yeah it's great. You're just about to drift off into a deep slumber and get these little dreams.

    Another thing that can happen is "Exploding head syndrome", sounds amazing doesn't it?
    It's where you're about to go to sleep and then you hear (or think you hear) a loud or strange noise. Sometimes an electronic kind of noise, sometimes a loud bang, only a few nights ago I thought I heard someone shout "THING" in my ear but it was just in my head.
    You can tell when it's a real noise and an imagined one.

      I had something like this just last night, it felt as though someone was right in my ear and they said something very loudly. I aslo get those mini dreams if I'm really tired. I know exactly what you mean.
