      Sometimes when I'm really tired, at school or wherever, my eyes will go through Rapid Eye Movements. and I can't control it. I'm trying to stay awake, cuz if I fall asleep my History teacher will be all pissed off and shit. But it looks really weird if you look at me when it happens. Is this REM, or is it just me being seriously sleep deprived? What can I do about it, even if i do get enough sleep and it happens?

      There have been reports of REM while "awake," and from what I've heard its because of being very sleep deprived. But Im unsure.
      “There’s an economic concept known as a Positional Good in which an object is only valued by the possessor because its not possessed by others. The term was coined in 1976 by economist Fred Hirsch to replace the more colloquial but less precise ‘neener-neener’.”

      Yeah, that happens to me too. And I get HI along with it. My guess is that your really tired. What time do you usually go to sleep?

      This happened to me one time when I stayed up for 36 hours straight. My eyes started rolling around in my head and my legs almost gave out on me 3 or 4 times. This continued to happen until I sat down and took like a 4 hour nap. Then it was all fixed.

      This has nothing to do with REM, if you're tired you don't go into REM and if you're awake then you're talking about micro sleep. Microsleep is a Non-REM problem. Eye jerking is a normal sleep deprivation symptom.

      I had my first ever mini lucid when i was on the GO train in toronto. I rested my eyes, opened them and looked at my hands. they were very large, and ir ealised it was a dream and then i woke up instantly XD.

      I do remember in history class more than once I was SO tired that I literally could not force myself to stay awake. I would feel my eyelids falling and if I would make an effort to keep them open, my vision could get blurred and my eyes would move all around.

      I didn't have any hallucinations or HI that I remember, though. I think it's possible.
