News of Sleep Disorders

Hey hey,
25 y/o female here, have had serious sleep problems since i was child (3 - 4 y/o). Finally diagnosed with Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder earlier this year, and am currently in the process of resetting my circadian rhythms, under a doctor's supervision. Since beginning the process, I've been having what I think are migraines (blurred vision, dizziness, loss of motor control and crazy muscle spasms) every day, 3 hours after I wake up. ...

Hello everyone,

So here's the thing:
I am 25 years old. I think I've had unrefreshing sleep and trouble sleeping since childhood.
When I finally decided to do something about it, I've done every single thing I could.
DAILY, I meditate, do sports, cook own meals (according to SCD diet guidelines- basically only vegetables and meat).
Sleep hasn't improved. Only thing that drives me during day is some energy I get from my routine.

I've been battling primary insomnia for decades. Two overnight sleep studies have determined it's primary. The current consensus is unsettling. Apparently I've done some serious damage to my brain chemistry with benzos. Nonetheless, I'm always looking for hope, and there is suddenly a lot of online presence with a ces device called the Fisher Wallace Stimulator...for anxiety and insomnia. Does anyone have experience with this? I am suspicious of the way it's being promoted, and ...

Hello all. Wondered whether anybody might be able to give me advice on my current bout of insomnia, which seems to result from a number of factors. By way of background, I had an abusive childhood, as a result of which I tend to internalise anger and dwell on situations that have upset me; this is definitely contributing to my not sleeping, though I think it is actually an effect rather than a cause of ...

Hey guys, I used to get nightmares after leaving the military a few years ago, i did some research on how to stop it from happening. What i did was teach myself to lucid dream and this helped me to know when i was dreaming and be able to stop a nightmare in its tracks.

I'm trying to figure things out about myself now that I'm getting older. I'm 25 and I have had nightmares my whole life. I have had nightmares for so long and so consistently that I can't even really be afraid of them anymore. I am concerned however...

In most of my dreams I am chased. And not just being chased and looking over my shoulder. I mean I am running for my life in the ...

I've been having the same dream/nightmare frequently, with different variations, for several years. I've tried to find meanings in dream books but they never have anything pertaining to my specifics.

the dreams are always about large...very large houses, with many rooms...and a lot of times there are hidden rooms off of the regular rooms. the houses are always haunted. sometimes I see or hear the ghosts and sometimes I don't but I have an overwhelming ...
