"The hypnagogic state can provide insight into a problem, the best-known example being August Kekulés realization that the structure of benzene was a closed ring while half-asleep in front of a fire and seeing molecules forming into snakes, one of which grabbed its tail in its mouth."
Luckily I haven't had any more of these but I still lock my bedroom door and the lights on. Neither would make a difference if I was having a hallucination. I haven't had one in several days and dropped the Seroquel back to 300 mg.
From childhood's hour I have not been. As others were, I have not seen. As others saw, I could not awaken. My heart to joy at the same tone. And all I loved, I loved alone.
