Thread: Auditory Hypnagogia: write what you hear.

Are you talking about hearing stuff during sp or right as your going to bed? If during sp, I can't remember everything exactly, but I've heard full songs, people having conversations, and people screaming at me from outside my door.

ya as your going to bed, and sp i guess. yes ive gotten the yelling quite a bit too in sp. any details of speech?

Well one was my sister yelling at me and she was saying, "go get him, go get him." And I also heard LaBerge talking in my head before, but I don't remember exactly what he said. I have an audio cd of his so that's how I knew it was his voice. But the time I heard the music was the best because it was pretty much full songs playing in my head.

My experiences are almost ALWAYS not in SP. I haven't been aware in SP for the longest time now. I can't remember things from it i guess..
but when i'm laying down and very tired. I hear crazy loud tapping noises in random places. or loud unusual cracks. sometimes i even hear bassy noises that are kinda relaxing.

cool,
ever heard actual speech that you can remember?

I hear this pretty much every night before I go to bed. Sometimes I write the good ones in my dream journal if I can be arsed to wake myself back up. I'll try to write some more down for you if you want. Here's the most recent one I posted, but it's like a week old.

"Be very important to us and go to the mitochondria."

On 2/7, I couldn't sleep between 1am and 3am. I woke up and read my old dreams, trying to make myself tired and initiate a lucid. Finally, I just took 2 tylenol pms and went back to bed.

Just before I fell asleep, I heard a male voice say, "Bob Sully knows". It was as if I was overhearing a conversation. But, the house was silent. If I have more, I'll be sure to add them...

Can't wait to read this, a few months from now...should be interesting!

Yay science.

Agreed.

One time I heard little girls giggling, was kinda creepy lol.

A few nights ago I heard two men talking to each other: "i think he's doing it" said one, "I'm not sure if he'll be able too". I got startled and came out of SP, when I got back into SP their conversation was still going but I can't recall what they said.

Just for you, I wrote down some things I heard last night.

"Mrs. Clark"

"That's up to YOU!"

"P-p-p-population!"

"Department of Subhuman Affairs"

"Mowed down the story in Motown"

"Chlamydia...I'm not drinking it!"

"This liberty that's in your body...it's terrifying."

"That's not fair. I've been dieing for 32 days now."

To Cosmix, ive heard similar things to "i think hes doing it" before too, as if stating towards me.

haha thats a lot of stuff,

really random too.. Chlamydia...I'm not drinking it hahahaha

"Miracle Grow...It works from the head to toes, all the way down to the knees!"

yeah, it sounds like someone's trying to get me up as they say.. "HEY"

last night..

"Many people call it pressure holding"

I absolutely adore this phenomenon. Sadly, the only one I can remember right now is: I'll be the best damn monster hunter Cleveland has ever seen!

Edit: This probably isn't quite the same, but this man's wife has been recording his sleep talking for at least a year, and it's quite funny and just as nonsensical: Sleep Talkin' Man

Thats interesting , wait so did you hear personally "Ill be the best damn monster hunter Cleveland has ever seen!" or sleep talked it?


this thread is about what we people 'hear' before sleep, being Auditory Hypnagogia. (hallucinations)

It was hypnopompic; I assumed that was close enough.

That it is. I am a little less informed on the hypnopompic state, but this morning i was aware of it, and 'experienced' it more so for the first time. I cannot remember what was saw or heard, but i remember it being quite... emotional. I then read up on it and how it is a very emotional state as apposed to hypnagogic hallucinations. (so that explained it!)

This thread is too much fun! I have to try this tonight!

Glad you like it, juroara.


Last night:

"I think it turned out pretty prime... THAT IS INSANE!"

"Its bed time when your time is sleeping"

"They had told me they had froze to death today"

I've heard that one as well, only was it 20-something days at one time, and around a 100 the other.

I also tend to hear a lot screams and occasionally people discussing scientific method or medicine, neuroscience in particular.

While I cannot explain the screams, the scientific method and medicine talk are most likely due to my interest in neurology/neuroscience.

I've gotten the screams. My most vivid hypnagogia while trying to WILD in the afternoon resulted in the visual and auditory hallucinations of people yelling but the surroundings of the people were blurry, sort of tunnel vision like.

"Okay!

It's a beautiful day, we work hard and we play!"

A hippie teacher teaching us to play with mud. I saw that just as I closed my eyes last night.
