"The hypnagogic state can provide insight into a problem, the best-known example being August Kekulés realization that the structure of benzene was a closed ring while half-asleep in front of a fire and seeing molecules forming into snakes, one of which grabbed its tail in its mouth."
Luckily I haven't had any more of these but I still lock my bedroom door and the lights on. Neither would make a difference if I was having a hallucination. I haven't had one in several days and dropped the Seroquel back to 300 mg.

Phil that's good. I sure don't need halucinations in my dreams. So less Seroquel keeps them away? Phillipa

I think it did in my case but I guess it's hard to tell. If anything, it knocked me out so I didn't have time to be half awake/half asleep.
It could start again or just have one here and there or hopefully never come back.
Thanks for responding. I thought this would be interesting. What do I know?

I've got to say that this, I have a lot of empathy for those that deal with this all of the time.
Hopefully some day the drug companies will find better treatments.

Phil it is interesting very interesting seems not many posting. I feel the drug companies should work on something for this also. Read something that said that the trend now is for more brain stuff and less meds. New ones. Phillipa
