Dreams and sleep disorders Posted: 05-21-08 06:00am
Hi there
I am working quite long hours at the
moment (12 hrs a day regularly), and am
falling asleep very easily. When I wake in
the morning my girlfriend tells me that I
have been Talking, swearing, hitting etc.
and am very hard to wake, am told she
sometimes hits and pinches me back but I
still sleep.
I can't recall any dreams or events
throughout the night to explain these
situations.
Its not just her that this happens to, one
of my friends has confirmed I do this
too.
Do you know of any conditions that would
promote these events?
any help would be greatly appreciated
.
With respect to your description, you
probably have very emotional dreams during
sleep. Dreams are a reflection of our
sub-consciousness. If you talk too much,
speak too loud, or hit in your dreams, and
that bothers your girlfriend, you can ask
for medical help from a mental health
doctor. Otherwise, you don’t have any
sleeping disorder as long as you can
asleep enough.
