  • Interesting, I have aphantasia and yet I have both hypnogogic and hypnopompic hallucinations on occasion. Other than those I never remember dreaming, although I almost always wake up thinking of the same thing I went to sleep thinking of. And when I do have waking dreams / hallucinations it’s always of whatever I was thinking about. If I realise the hallucinations aren’t real they immediately fall apart which is a shame, as I don’t normally get to experience any kind of mental imagery.









  • Personally it just makes me emotional all around, not happy per-say. If anything I’d say it helps me to open up and feel sad, but in a good way. It’s like an emotional release. So I can totally see the use in therapy as I personally find it therapeutic already, even without a therapist.

    I’ve not experienced any of the aftereffects that others describe either, but I know some of my friends say they’re always very down for a few days after.
