Specializes in Psychiatry

Hypnagogic hallucina: Tions can be due to sleep deprivation (do you have a sleep disorder?), narcolepsy (typically presents with it plus nap attacks, sleep paralysis, and cataplex),, psychosis, medications/drugs, or delirium. Consult with your physician to begin a work-up and receive a referral to an appropriate specialist if indicated.
