Do I Have A Sleeping Disorder?

[yashen]

Well there's your problem.
8-10 hours of sleep and no energy drinks.

Recent research shows that sleeping too long can shorten your life span.. as does lack of sleep . 10 hours is far too much, 7 is what is now accepted in the scientific world as the optimum sleeping hours unlike 8 which is commonly held the be the dream number..

Tyson to be honest with you it sounds like you are not hitting a deep enough level of sleep. My recomendation is to get nighttime sleep-aid. I promise you it will help you because itll help you reach REM quicker and achieve deep sleep.

You're breaking out of Sleep Paralysis early during a nightmare, I would guess.

Whenever you're in a dream (most of the dreams you have you don't remember when you wake up) look at your hands and focus on them, or try to read/write something. If you're successful, you'll control your dream, avoiding another nightmare.

nothing is wrong with you.

i had this as a toddler.

you are most likely having night terrors. it's nothing to get all worked up over.

eventually, you will out grow them, just like wetting the bed.

you can grow out of wetting the bed?

Worst that has happened to me is walking around and arguing with myself, but damn that is pretty freaky stuff.

i don't think it is a dosorder just a nightmare. and it only happening like 5 times in a year just doesnt sound like a dis order

God I hate sleep so much. I suffer from insomnia every other day, even though I keep my sleep constant (go to sleep at 9:30, wake at 6:00). Tossing and turning gets old pretty fast.

As for your problem, don't worry about it. There have been two incidents where I have woken up in from a nightmare panting in that really weird way where you suddenly sit up straight. As long as it doesn't interfere with your sleep, just lay off of the scary movies and watch some 30 Rock or something happy before you go to sleep.

It probably is night terrors, 2 things people havnt said.

Relax, if you have spare time, powernAp, meditate, lie down and think of happy places ( not joking it helps relax) and try to concentrate on deep breathing

also stay away from video games, excessive amounts can give u bad sleep

I saw some documentary on oprah about night terrors, they filmed people it was pretty bad

 

[apoculypse1]

Nah you dont have a disorder now if this happened every night then you should be worried

 

[xxshafaxx]

naw just bad dreams or uve done something bad and scared some1 will find out or ur petrified of some1 or thing

 

[johnty15]

why are there people in your room half the nights? anyways you dont remember any nightmare? dont answer this but think to yourself, it might have to do with some abuse or being scared as a child. your body might be reliving the expiriance (you dont clam down until you have something familiar). really hope it stops, you can try taking a sleeping pill or take melatonin (a cheap naturalish over the counter supplement, it will help you get to sleep and stay asleep.

Nightmares. It happens. 5 times a year is a pretty good record in my book
