If you see that it intensifies, talk to your doctor.

I hear voices narating my dreams and see images when I close my eyes.

hearing voices when u are in bed trying to fall asleep (if that is when u are hearing them) is called hypnagogic hallucinations and they can be normal. i get them. my family gets them. i can get them for up to 5 or maybe 10 minutes before i actually fall asleep. theyre caused by the brain activity changing as u move toward sleep.

" Although having a hallucination as you fall asleep might make you feel confused or scared, hypnagogic hallucinations are relatively common and likely not something to worry about.

It’s important to know that hypnagogic hallucinations are different from hallucinations associated with mental health conditions, like schizophrenia, and neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

People with these conditions experience hallucinations during the day when they’re wide awake and have other significant signs and symptoms of the condition."
