I'm sorry you're having trouble. Sometimes music helps with sleep. Sometimes a bath or curling up with a blanket. I'm sorry you're having trouble. I am having trouble too. Hang in there.

hypnogogia isnt something you try or do. its a sleep disorder where your body feels paralyzed and you hear sounds voices, in other words having audio and sensory hallucinations.
heres a link that explains it more in detail.
http://www.sleepdex.org/hypnogogia.htm
people with DID can have this problem and they can have a problem where their alters become active and vocal at night. before I was integrated I would lay awake listening to the chatter of my alters voices. for me it wasnt scarey. probably because hearing voices is something that happened every day of my life anyway because I had DID.
to the original poster
my suggestion is contact your treatment providers, let them know whats going on. if its hypnogogia there is medications that can help.
if its from a dissociative disorder your treatment providers can help you with establishing a routine that will calm you and your alters at night so that they are not chattering so much at night.
