If you're talking about the times when you're falling asleep (the hypnagogic stage) or waking up (the hypnopompic stage), then yes--I absolutely do experience random, vivid imagery beneath my eyelids during these stages, and it often produces the weird sensation that I'm seeing through my eyelids, even though I remain perfectly aware that I'm in bed with my eyes closed (it also occurs when I've dozed off on buses or trains).

I kept hallucinating stationary last night

Stationary sliding off tables, stationary every bloody where. I think it was falling out of the sky at one point

I was awake during all of this by the way but it was behind my eyes

I don't even like stationary...well I don't mind a biro and a shatterproof rular but that's about it

I've started experiencing this sort of thing lately. Like I'll see weird shapes and figures and even animals and people for a second and they vanish. I know it cant be a delusion becausr I know these are not real but they still freak me out.

I talked to my doctor about this and she wants to put me on an abilify shot every week or so.

I get these when I'm trying to go to sleep. They're kind of eerie because the images will start out completely realistic, full color and detailed, like an image of a little girl, and then the color will fade as the image sort of melts and everything goes black. I also get a lighthouse effect in a pitch black room, left to right or right to left, dots of darkness growing into large circles over and over, and sometimes vivid static. When I wake up in the morning, I see mandala shaped static rings with strange details. Every now and then I go blind with static during the day--I've been told that's an optical migraine, but I think I might be an old TV set and just don't know it, yet. :jester:

I had the best hallucination last night

I was in bed, listening to my music and I was struggling to settle down to listen to it properly

Then all of a sudden peace just filled my brain and I saw a 3d figure. It was like it emerged from one of those magic eye pictures. It was so cool but I'd say it only lasted a matter of seconds but it was long enough and that was it really
