finally
Quote From: liatsunami I think you've touched on something here. That's why earlier I said people with these problems need to be evaluted for pyschological and physical problems. I used to think I saw ghosts, heard voices, etc... Then my Dr. found out I have narcolepsy which can cause things called "hynogogic hallucinations". Which always seem VERY real, like a waking dream., and occur at the onset of sleep and during sleep. Also other health problems can cause visual and auditory hallucinations durking WAKING hours. The type of hallucinations or "visions" you suffer often mirror internal conflicts or things in your subconcious that are bothering you. A lot of times emotions that you hold back are released and effect what you see.
I think most of the guests could benefit from a work up from a physical Dr. and a mental health professional. This reply from Kitashia, was interesting. I thought for years I had some type of mental disorder. From a little girl up, I have on several occassions, seen ghosts or some type of polterguiest (sp?). As I reached 40 and over, I had a very traumatic experience in my life.. I started to have bad nightmares, in which I would see dark figures entering my bedroom while I was sleeping, I would wake to see them approach me and they told me if they ever caught me I would die. There were many times, I would scream for my husband, grab him and jump over him to get out of his side of the bed for safety from these figures. I NEVER lay on my back, but one night I just happened to roll over on my back and one of them came onto me and attacked me, of course I didn't die but then realized that it had to be some type of hormonal thing or stress, which I do believe it was. I haven't experienced these dreams in quite a long time now. I Pray alot more than I used to and have always trusted the Lord for everything, but I find that if I put God first nothing can step between us. I am so glad these nightmares have a name, and moreso, it's just nice to be able to share!
