> Hi. The night terrors you talke about here is, i think, a different kind of 'terror' symptoms. Some have it just before waking whilst for some it happens when drifting off. But I don't mean to be-little your issues or symptoms in any way.
> For me its almost always upon waking. There is a name for them- hypnogogic hallucinations.
> I've had them on and off for years, but when it happens, no matter how much I try telling myself "it'll be over in a few seconds" and it really is a very short experience. Seconds. Yet its always been as bad as the last. And it often (not always) follows a bad dream, but not always.
> What gets me most is its paralyzing effect. I try to move. Sometimes I can pull myself out of it. This often happens even when im feeling well.It can happen once in a blue moon or every day for weeks. Now i know there is no stopping it I've less fear of it happening because I've no choice. Still scary when it happens. Soon as I can move I sit upright strait away. Sometimes though, when its over its so tempting to go back to sleep. And if i do it often repeats. I gotta get up and stay up!

Hi
Yeah i had come across that hallucinations thing yesterday and wondered if that was what i was experiencing. I only get them in the morning and you're right they dont last long usually wheni get up its not longat all. Strangely i can wake in the middle of the night with no nightmare and go back to sleep just seems to be at my usual timeof getting up. I used to be able to be lazy and fall back asleep before theonset of these in 2014 but when i have them i have no choice but to get up. Is this a life phase or something? Anyone had it go away with no interference?
