Hi,

I had/have the very same thing. I was seeing a therapist for a while so I asked her if this was 'normal' and also did some research online. I was also worried that I was going schizo.

The good news it is quite a common condition, I also suffered from night terrors for many years still do if stressed. It is a similar thing, the brain not quite being in full sleep mode but not being awake. I find it is worse when I am 'over tired'. Rest assured you aren't going mad. I can't remember what the condition is called but if you do some research you will find some answers. Hope this has put your mind at rest somewhat.

Kind regards

I had exactly that just yesterday lunchtime.

I was just nodding off when I was woken by what I thought was a loud whizzing noise. It was completely in my head.

I've similar off and on all my life.
