Quoted: I'm probably crazy, there's times when hear voices immediately before I drift off to sleep. I used to have very violent dreams, often about war, SHTF and things like that where I would end up dying while putting up a fight trying to save myself or others. Not so much of that anymore, they ended, believe it or not, because I simply became so angry over the recurring dreams that I learned how to reincarnate. One of my last violent dreams, I dreamt that I was walking in my neighborhood, two assholes tried to rob me at gunpoint, I drew down, shot them dead and got shot fatally too. Next thing I knew, cops were there and I was in a bodybag, and I decided I really did not want to be in that damn bag, so I opened the bag and got out, I said "I'm not going in no body bag" and I walked home. I tend to be a quiet loner and I don't take shit off of people. I'm also known for getting emotionally fired up over certain issues, like if an anti is being an unrelenting asshole and stuff like that. I've learned a lot of patience over the years, not nearly as bad as I used to be. So yes, I hear the crazy thing a lot.

Those voices mean exactly two things: Jack and Shit.
The brief transition between wakefulness and sleep we experience each night has been known by many names: the ‘borderland state’, the ‘half-dream state’, the ‘pre-dream condition’. Its technical name is the
hypnagogic state and, along with dreaming, it is one of the most fascinating altered states of consciousness we can experience without the use of drugs.
In the hypnagogic state, visions,
voices, weird insights and unusual sensations greet us as we drift out of consciousness. Faces may appear, threatening or comical. A landscape may open up, with distant mountains and wide, expansive vistas. Geometric forms, jewels, diamonds and intricate patterns may dance before our mind’s eye, not unlike those seen under the influence of certain psychoactive substances. Splashes of colour, flares, sparks and cloud-like forms-known as ‘entoptic lights’, ‘phosphenes’ or eigenlicht, may drift through our drowsing consciousness, accompanied by strange, nonsensical sentences announcing portentous truths. We may feel we are floating, or that our body has grown to enormous proportions, or that we have suddenly grasped the answer to the riddle of the Universe.
As for having dreams, well, big deal.
People always think that normal weird crap, like being a surly immature jerk or hating to fly means that they are crazy.
