  • Title: [Unusual dreams in epileptics].
    Author: Boldyrev AI.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1984; 84(6):841-4. PubMed ID: 6464602.
    Abstract:
    The author discusses bizarre dreams characteristic of epileptics and never occurring in normal subjects which have an important practical implication especially for early detection of epilepsy and the prevention of severe forms of the disease. This group of dreams includes vivid nightmares with vital fear, dreams not infrequently transforming into pro-dream states; persistently repeated stereotyped dreams and dreams with invariably the same unpleasant sensations representing an isolated aura of subsequent epileptic attacks. Diagnostically important may also be dreams with the symptoms of derealization and depersonalization, vague dream images and the deja vu phenomenon.
