question . does anyone else get auditory hallucinations when really tired that like shske you awake ? cuz when im get sleep deprived as im in the state of slipping into sleep extremely loud audio plays in my gead and pushes me into being almost conscious but still in sleepy mode . and then when i go back to normal awakedness its like completely gone lol

@ellie it doesnt happen to me but that sounds like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_head_syndrome

@ellie i have this happen frequently. its a kind of hypnogogic hallucination. the thing where youre suddenly falling is part. i tend to hear conversations from the day and imagine nonsensical memes

@ellie you may be experience Exploding Head Syndrome, about 10% of people get that

@ellie I've never experienced that

@ellie hypnogogic phenomena happen all the time whenever you transition from awake to asleep

@ellie somehow learning this information eased me enough during sleep to stop experiencing it. no idea how, but hopefully it has a similar effect
(also people are mentioning exploding exploding head syndrome, which fits this description, and manifests as loud auditory hypnogogic hallucination)

@ellie yup

@lizzie see thats interesting cuz for me i just hear like really loud and grating and intense noise . it’s not anything coherent

@mia gender affirming sleep disorder

@ellie yup :p sensory and visual hallucinations too but its just another excuse to be eeper sleepy cozy in bed lol
