A member asked:
If a person is having mild, persistent hallucinations or is disoriented on waking,, will a teaspoon of honey before sleeping alleviate the behavior?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hallucinations upon: awakening are called hypnopompic. Usually, taking time to orient yourself and awaken will relieve them. If they persist and impair function then seek medical and psychiatric evaluations to determine cause and develop treatment. They may indicate other issues including narcolepsy, insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, anxiety disorders, and depression. Best regards for relief.
