I see a strange thing before i go to sleep.

For the past few months, once I go to sleep, I see a strange thing. It looks like a ball of hair, I have my eyes open and I can see my bedroom and then this thing is coming at me, I get up trying to avoid it as fast as I can. Then it dissapears. Is it normal that i see the exact same thing for such a long time?

The same exact thing happened to me and my husband once. It happened to the both of us at the exact same time. We thought it looked like a blacker spider coming down from the ceiling right over our heads. Never happened again.

Not sure I understand.  Once you go to sleep you are dreaming, no?  So what you see is a dream, yes?  Do you then wake up?  Just based on what you say, you might be better off just ignoring it and letting yourself sleep.

A few minutes after I fall asleep, I wake up out of the blue, I open my eyes and I see this thing. So I'm awake, it's not a dream, more like a hallucination? What's bothering me is that I experience the same thing every night.

If you are sleeping you wouldn't know that you woke up a few minutes after sleeping, so time can get confusing in the night. Likely your eyes and imagination are playing tricks on you, because if you wake up you are groggy and will have a hard time figuring exactly what is happening.

I think you are trying to find meaning from a meaningless groggy sleep experience.
