Disorders in the Night
There a few different types of Sleep Disorders that affect
millions around the globe. Sleepwalking, Nightmares, Insomnia,
and Sleep-Wake disorders can bring forth misery if not treated.
All of us have endured nightmares or sleepless nights, but when
the symptoms are continuing it is most likely the person has a
disorder.
The symptoms that come alone with most sleep disorders include
stress since inability to sleep, or sleeping too much, as well
as nightmares cause grievance. Most sleeping disorders are
linked to physical ailments, psychological stressors, other
diagnosis, alcohol, drugs, as well as a few other factors.
Insomnia includes unhealthy symptoms that make a person have
difficulty while trying to sleep, and often the person may wake
up during sleep hours.
This often leads to complications during the waking hours since
the person is irritated. The patients often suffer with the
inability to focus, depression, anxiety attacks, and no energy.
Some patients may even suffer from bipolar, anxiety disorders,
or other types of disorders. I endured Insomnia for the most
part of my life because of other disorders, but first hand, I
can tell you medicines may work for some people, but for others
it may not. The solution I found that works best for me, is
eating healthy, force the mind out of thought process when you
lay down to sleep, and keep in mind "One day at a time."
Insomnia patients often suffer apprehension, a sense of loss,
and trauma as well as a few other symptoms. Most Insomnia
Disorders means that somewhere down the line the REM (Rapid Eye
Movement) sleep mode was confused. The trick then is getting the
REM scheduler back on track. During the REM sleep hours, the
mind often dreams, and the body functions often shift. For
example, your heart rate may increase of decrease in REM sleep
mode.
Since REM is often affected by sleeping hour schedules, it is
sometimes possible to endure a sleeping disorder. For example,
if you have a night shift job and later switched to day shift,
it is obvious the REM mode is imbalanced. Once you find a way to
get the mind on track again, it is possible to reinstate your
mental health. However, if you have underlying disorders,
including posttraumatic stress, bipolar, multiple personality
disorder, and other disorders, these diagnoses must be dealt
with first before resolve comes for the sleeping disorder.
Sleep-Wake Disorders or Circadian Rhythm disorder often creating
sleeping inefficiencies, including sleepless nights, stress,
anxiety, jet lag and so forth.
This disorder is often caused by changes in the schedule. If the
person does not see the sun when he or she wakes simply because
they sleep all day from working all night, this could cause
Sleep-Wake disorders to develop. Sleep Walking Disorders can
become deadly. Recent studies have shown that sleepwalkers are
capable of murder and will never know they killed. In my
experiences, I do recall brief details of my sleep walking
nights, only because others that witnessed the action gave me
vivid details. In one instant, I sat in a chair rocking back and
forth and humming, and in another incident, I walked to the
front of the house and peered out the door, and turned and went
back to bed while walking past members of the household and
never acknowledging them.
I believe sleeping disorders is related to high levels of
stress, diagnosis such as Posttraumatic Stress, Multiple
Personality Disorder, and other disorders were trauma exists. At
the time I underwent sleepwalking, I was under a high-level of
stress, and suffered both Multiple Personality and Posttraumatic
Stress. Most people that sleepwalk appear as though they are in
a Zombie land.
For example if you notice a person walking past you at bedtime,
and his or her face seems to have a blank stare or else a look
of unemotional status, then the person is probably walking in
his or her sleep. Finally, nightmare disorders are often linked
to Posttraumatic Stress Disorders, as well as other disorders,
while there is not enough evidence available to support the
claims. Trauma patients are often the people that suffer with
nightmares throughout the night. The person will see a real-life
scene that depicts horror, fright, and so forth and sometimes
will wake up screaming, and most all the time endure night
sweats.
Sometimes the dreams are reoccurring and sometimes the dreams
change during the night. Studies has recently shown that sleep
disorder patients may have physical disabilities that are linked
to the sleeping problems, however almost all patients diagnosed
with sleeping disorders have additional disorders, suffered
trauma, drugs or drinks excessively, and so forth. Regardless of
the problems, you must find the source before you can treat
individuals with sleeping disorders.
