How to stop waking hallucinations?

**CloudArchitect** · 08-19-2012 06:41 AM

Whats up, I keep on waking up and hallucinating things, I know it's natural and all that but it's really messing with my sleep because I keep on waking up a sleep cycle or two before my final sleep cycle, and everything I hallucinate is REALLY fucking creepy. It's like my whole room is evil. The other day I saw these 2 women with melting faces standing where my guitars were. And this morning I saw a rustic pyramid ebbing some weird feeling. They seem to be getting more vivid and more abstract, and I just don't want to wake up one morning and actually see something that isn't morphed out of an object in my room, like http:

What must I do to end the hallucinations so I can sleep properly? dfhjdkj

One, make sure you get enough rest through the night.
Two, if night sleep is not enough, take a nap during the day.
Three, this may just be hypnagogic imagery, seeing/feeling things even for a short time, usually creepy. Try to ignore them, or use them to launch you right back into lucidity.

1: Its messing up my sleep so I'm not getting enough
2: I will haha
3: It's hypnopompic imagery, I want to know how to stop it so I can sleep well.

I know I am sort of new to the lucid dreaming/dreaming techniques, but I have read SO much.. lol
I think reciting some mantras before sleeping may help. Tell yourself over and over that if you do see these hallucinations, to at least have pleasant ones, not nightmarish ones.

I'm here again, awake and unable to fall back to sleep because of these hallucinated evil feelings and visuals. Please does anyone have any ideas? I'm so tired and I can't get back to sleep UGH

Ask them with a mean voice "Por que estas aqui?" It means why are you here?

You ever try talking to them? Do they say anything?

Maybe you could try sleeping with more lights on? That could keep them away.

Try to stop thinking about the negativity of your room. You may have just had an odd experience where you saw something creepy and then got scared and are frightened that it will happen again so every time you sleep, you think about it. It may just be "programmed" into your subconscious to think about creepy things when you open your eyes and see your dark room because you associate it with the last experience. Try and convince yourself that your room is perfectly safe and that nothing can harm you rather than thinking about the negative things. Use of mantras before you sleep could help as well.

Do you need to open your eyes when you wake up? If you don't open your eyes and stay still then you could go straight back into a dream. That means you don't have to come eye to eye with these horrible hallucinations. If you want more information on how to do it then just look up a DEILD tutorial and then it's down to you if you want to become lucid or not
