One of my sisters & my daughter tell me they see colored small things floating around the room while they're awake but trying to fall asleep. When my daughter told me about it, I freaked out and also thought, "Why didn't you mention this before we went to the eye doctor last week?!" But when I brought the topic up to my sister, she said, "Oh, I've seen things like that my entire life." After reading on the internet, some people had found these were sleep migraines, but many others found they (or their parents) dragged them through endless tests and worries and nothing was every found and now they were happily living in retirement.

I have had sleepwalking episodes. Those I don't remember at all. I know I sleep talk too, and people who sleep talk tend to have a greater tendency to sleep walk. Sometimes, I'll wake enough to realize I have been talking awhile to nobody. When I was in the hospital, after ulcer surgery and on all sorts of pain medication, I hallucinated off and on and very continuous type hallucinations at all times of the day (locations of various objects in the room, where my bed was located & what it looked liked, the bathroom, and it did change (again to wrong locations) when I was brought to a new room closer to the nurses station for not listening and trying to walk on my own (falling & triggering the bed alarm, thinking another position would be more comfortable. Sometimes, I'd hear voices of lots of kids, like an elementary school class, but God know they wouldn't bring kids to a post-surgical ward. All hallucinations (at different hours of the day, not surrounded by sleep all the time) and really consistent, which struck me as odd.

H claims I was hallucinating around a week ago when I feed the cats honey, but it was surrounded by sleep, and I didn't remember a bit of it. He said I was even talking some and I guess I was making some sort of sense, but I don't remember a thing about it.
