News of Sleep Disorders

Do you like being in a mania or hypomania state? But when you go to sleep it could all end waking up with Manic Depression. Here's my story how I became fearful of falling asleep or Somniphobia. I've been off my meds and when this happens, I usually get manic or experience hypomania in which I can do anything even elevate to a higher consciousnesses. I vibrate at a high frequency’s that will make electronics ...

I'm sure this has already been discussed but too many posts to look through.

I am totally tired standing up and sitting up. As soon as I lay down it's like I took amphetamines. SO wide awake! Once in a while, I can get some sleep during the day. I mostly DO NOT SLEEP! I'm sure other people have the same problem. I am hoping I can get some kind of an answer in this ...

Hi all.
I've been struggling with insomnia since 2017 after loss of job.
There were manmy nmights like 3 in a row where I had 0 h of sleep.All this time and even now I've been put to meds to sleep.
It helped benzos then switched to sedating antidepressants then in 2020-2022 I am taking Clozapine 25 mg which gives me only 3-4 h to sleep.
I just wake up exactly at 2.30 a.m. like ...

Hi there,

I have been having nightmares, sleep terrors , paralysis and episodes of sleep walking. The former are all pretty horrific but the sleep walking can be amusing ( for others , I still find it frightening)

But recently I’ve been waking up with injuries- what looked like a finger tip sized burn mark on my forehand between my eyes ,
- a huge bruise on my throat as if I had been strangled ...

I don't know what the hell is happening. I can't go to sleep when I try to and i have no idea why. And the strangest part is that I don't feel exhausted. Does anyone feel this way? Maybe I'm just overthinking things.

Has anyone experienced luna effect episodes, like walking, getting out of house, opening/closing windows, etc.? I remember when my mom told me that I was walking, while sleeping. And she told me that I was crying and shouting while sleeping (this was back in my younger years). I don't have any sleep disorders because I don't have those symptoms. Is there a reason as to why? I just had a Psychology lesson and my school ...

Exploding Head Syndrome

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_head_syndrome

Anyone else ever experience that? I can't say for sure, but I believe it has happened to me. I was drifting to sleep, while very short on sleep, and while under similar conditions I've often experienced Hypnic Jerks,

I've never experienced this before. It was as if a small-caliber handgun had been fired near my head. Very jarring ...

I have been pretending lately that my papa (honorary father) wakes me up when I have a nightmare. He lives on the other side of the world (and we can only write letters in real life). I pretend he says it's all right, we exchange a hug, and I then I try to go back to bed after he leaves. It's the only thing that soothes me. I don't really fall back asleep. But I ...

Hello All, 36yo male here. From February to July 2019 I took prednisone 3.5 different times for 4 different run-ins with poison ivy. (stopped mid-way through the last one because at that time I knew for sure that it was not worth it to mess up my sleep like that). I have always went to sleep at 9PM and would sleep through the night good except if I drank too much water I would wake ...

Hi,
I'm really hoping someone can help me get to the bottom of my sleep issue.

I'll start off saying I have had some of these symptoms on and off for a few years like occasional clusters of night sweats, vivid dreams and I've struggled with excessive day time sleepiness since I was about 14, but only gotten worse as I've gotten older. (26 now) It went from a day nap after school to now ...
