Why does nobody remember the moment they fell asleep?
Why does no one remember the moment they fell asleep? Discover the mechanisms of sleep, the process of falling asleep, and why this moment remains a mystery for most people.
The thing is, during the process of falling asleep, the brain gradually decreases the activity of the systems responsible for attention and the formation of new memories.
Therefore, this transition is usually just not saved in memory. But it gets even more interesting.
Sometimes it feels like you couldn't fall asleep for a very long time, even though you were already sleeping.
Scientists have found that in the lightest stage of sleep, a person can be sure that they are still awake.
If awakened at that moment, they often say: "I wasn't sleeping at all."
Such strange things our brain sometimes does. What are your thoughts on this?
