According to the Cleveland Clinic, Exploding head syndrome (EHS) is a sleep disorder that makes you hear a loud noise or explosive crashing sound in your head. Healthcare providers also call it episodic cranial sensory shocks.
EHS is a parasomnia. The sound isn’t real and nobody else can hear it. But it can still be a scary, frustrating interruption. Parasomnias are disruptive sleep disorders involving undesirable physical behaviors, emotions, or experiences - such as sleepwalking, talking, or night terrors - that occur while falling asleep, during sleep, or upon waking. They often stem from genetic factors, stress, or other sleep disorders, and are treated through improved sleep hygiene, safety measures, and occasionally medication.
Exploding head syndrome isn’t dangerous, but you might want to talk to a 'healthcare provider' (shrink maybe?) if you’re experiencing any new symptoms that affect your sleep.
