It sometimes happens with me that when i am just about to fall asleep i hear a loud explosion sound in my head and i get awake with terror because it feels real but its no where it only in my head or ear i dont know what is it or how to explain , sometime i also see a flash of light while just falling asleep and it makes me awake suddenly, can any dr. explain what is this problem? And whom to consult for it
It seems you are going through stress in daily life which might be effecting you or you are going through state of fear? more details are required to get to know better
Hello! Thank you for posting this query. It is actually a very less known issue, sometimes known as a syndrome. It is aptly termed 'Explosive Head Syndrome.'
This happens when a person is about to go to sleep hence between consciousness and unconsciousness. The reasons why this happens are still unclear but the most likely cause of it is thought to be stress. I hope you find comfort in knowing that you aren't alone in facing this issue, more people experience this as well. There haven't been any neurological problems associated with it yet.
It can happen due to heavy stress or anxiety. For proper checkup you can consult me through marham.
For proper treatment, book an appointment through Marham
It could be Explosive Head Syndrome. Please consult a psychologist in person to understand it's root cause.
its due to stress .don't worry.book an appointment through Marham.we will discuss in detail.
Sorry for late reply.... actually it is a type of sleep disorder knows as Parasomnias, you should consult a doctor. These sounds are not real they are hallucinations so keep that it mind. Try to avoid heavy meals, fatty foods, caffeine etc before bed time. Adopt a healthy life style eat healthy diet especially nuts, fish, whole grains, and leafy greens.

Hallucinations are sensations that appear to be real but are created within the mind. Examples include seeing things that are not there, hearing voices or other sounds, experiencing body sensations etc. In more simpler terms you think there is a sound but it’s not real as no one else heard it

It may or may not be the same thing you have to explain that dream like state more? Do you have stress in life? And since when? Is there any history of psychological issues in your family or not?

There is a condition or phenomena knows as De Ja vu do you experience that or still you will say you feel like a dream and when that happens do you hear voices or see people that actually are not there or unknown people? What happened to the real surroundings at the time of this dream like state?

De ja vu is happening a lot because of stress and as you are saying that surroundings remain the same and you do not hear or see things then it’s a good sign that hallucinations are not occurring but still to be on the sure side you can take an appointment to clear out your situation and understand it completely and also whatever is happening is because of your stressful life as I have suggested in initial message that adopt a healthy life style
