[edit]To anyone who may be able to help:
I have epilepsy. I was diagnosed about 15 years ago but my seizures have increased over the pas couple years.
Every single seizure that I have had has occured with 30-45 minutes after I wake up.
I am wondering if that qualifies as the "hypnoppompic" period of waking.
Does anyone know? Could that mental state cause my seizures?
Thanks for your help! Casey
- Seizures have little, if nothing, to do with a hypnopompic period, especially if it's as long as 30-45 minutes after you wake up. A hypnopompic state occurs at the point between sleep and waking up (not after waking up), where someone blends the dream world with reality. This is what can cause the very vivid hallucinations. If the seizures happened as you were trying to wake up, it would be possible, but since they're happening so long afterward, it's just not the case. I've answered your question, even though I probably shouldn't have. For future reference though, discussion about the topic or medical advice does not belong on talk pages. The only thing that should be here is discussion specifically about the article. --74.137.224.33 (talk) 16:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Quality?
[edit]Just thought this article seemed a bit vague and impenetrable with little reference to fact, almost like a page of waffle ripped clean from some New Agey person's teachings. Could this be cleaned up? 86.46.182.32 (talk) 11:35, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
Hypnopompic hallucinations
[edit]Article sucks. It makes "Hypnopompic * " appear trivial. It does not mentions Hypnopompic hallucinations. You know what are "Hypnopompic hallucinations" ? Imagine waking up to see your room. The only difference is that there is an old women is standing besides you. Nope she is not your grand-mom or mother or somebody you know. Sometimes "shadow peoples" are seen if light is very low. Some people have reported seeing insects especially spiders. Hearing somebody walk towards your door is also common. Some people see symbols and animals. Most people experiencing these have no prior/underlying condition. Note the word "hallucinations" because you are not asleep when you get them. You are fucking awake. These hallucinations go away in a few seconds though.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.195.55.174 (talk) 18:37, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
That last phrase is weird...is it a poorly done ad for the book?
[edit]In The Committee of Sleep, Margie Profet's McArthur-award winning biology experiment is shown to be one of these.
One of these what? --TiagoTiago (talk) 02:45, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
Please someone check
[edit]"the hypnopompic state is emotional and credulous dreaming cognition trying to make sense of real world stolidity"
Could somebody english speaking and knowledgeable of the subject, check if that sentence really makes sense ? Should not that be rephrased.
- should not there be a 'an'
- cognition shouldn't be rather 'condition'. A "dreaming cognition" does not make sense to me.
"the hypnopompic state is an emotional and credulous dreaming condition, in which a person is trying to make sense of the real world stolidity"
is not that better english ? is the proposed meaning correct (i can't tell, i don't understand for sure the original meaning). But I would like to... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.57.177.64 (talk) 21:47, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
Delete or combine with Hypnagogia
[edit]Should be deleted or combined with Hypnagogia, which already has plenty of subsections on related phenomena. The two states are considered similar enough from a clinical perspective and this article is far too short and lacking in quality to stand on its own, having been tagged since 2011.174.44.81.153 (talk) 08:25, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
Rename article to 'Hypnopompia'?
[edit]The current title of this article is, as far as I can tell, an adjective. I'd propose that we rename the article using the noun 'hypnopompia'. This would be in better accordance with WP:NOUN. It would also better match the naming convention in the sister article Hypnagogia. MeteorRunner (talk) 14:32, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Hypnopompic → Hypnopompia – WP:NOUN; see also Hypnagogia. 1234qwer1234qwer4 15:55, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
- Support per nom. (Although I must notice that almost entire article is about hypnopompic hallucinations, so we might move it there as well). No such user (talk) 15:24, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
- Support per nom. I don't think a further move is necessary beyond the proposal. BD2412 T 16:51, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
