Every so often on a stressful night, I linger between awake asleep. I'm so stressed out, I don't realize I'm in bed and that I should be sleeping. And I'm asleep enough that I'm actually missing out on a really good WILD opportunity.

When I snap out of it I can't remember what I was thinking, or saying or seeing in the HI. As if its so random and abstract its not even comprehensible when conscious. But hey, it made sense at the time so I really wanna know what that nonsense was, just for funs sake

I almost got my chance the other night when I was falling asleep while writing in a journal. Next thing I know I was having an HI and narrating it and trying to write what I was seeing in the journal. I snapped myself out of it (since at the time I didn't want to fall asleep) and I was like "what was I writing!!"

I had gotten as far as a few words. Of course, I'm sure my hand would have gone limp before I finished, but still its kinda a cool idea now that I think about it. And my accidental nearly asleep-writing actually did help me remember the HI that was slowly drifting me off to sleep. It was a ship at sea during a storm. And I was trying to write 'and then the men drowned in the ship'.

I know the idea of people drowning at sea isn't as nonsensical as other dream nonsense. But it was nonsensical considering that while I was sleep-writing, I really thought thats what should have come next in my journal - when my journal entry couldn't have been any different!

Anyone else here ever try to remember the nonsense that goes on in your own thoughts as you fall asleep? Not necessarily the nonsense of an HI, but you own nonsense thoughts?



PS, when I was in highschool I wrote entire paragraphs asleep as the teacher lectured - now those were scary entries!
