Thread: What would you call this....?

The falling and jerking awake is a form of hypnagogic hallucinations, which are normal to encounter from time to time. The unconscious random thoughts or thinking over the day, I'm told, are often called “dreamlets”. They often closely resemble dreams in content, but I don't think you can really do much with either by themselves in terms of actual lucid dreaming. They're just part of the transition into sleep and actual, full-blown dreams.

Hmm..good to know, thanks!
