need help for a sleep disorder!!

Post Reply New Topic

In my sleep at times I can be vilolent and I don't want to be! I have looked into this, but nothing seems to help what I have tried! I'm very upset about this and want to take it out on some scum bag who would deserve a beating, not harming some one I love against my will and not remembering antthing! Any usfull help, info, or advice would be welcome!

Separate beds.

Could you be more specific about being violent? If it's just in a dream then I wouldn't worry too much. It's just daily stresses which have filtered to your subconscious when you are asleep. If however you are sleepwalking and doing dangerous stuff then you should consult a professional. Usually the dreams are a sign of some emotional problems (probably stress), when you act out in your sleep. It doesn't necessarily mean that you are violent, normally it just means you have something bothering you. But either way maybe speaking to your doctor would be a good thing.

I am seeking answers online and am seeking more professional help! I left a message for my counsular to meet and talk about this ASAP!

I don't have a problem on most nights ...only 2-3% of the time when I'm under a great deal of stress and my routine is more than a little bit disrupted! Durring these times sleeping in a separate room from my wife would be a good idea! We have talked about it! I don't know if I am acting out nightmares or not! I just don't remember!!...this is very disturbing to me and very much against my will!! !

I had a talk about this to a good friend which has helped some!

I have found out more about things to avoid before going to bed and about doing things that will help me like taking supliments! I'm also going to the doctor to get my meds changed, becasue this could be making the problem worse. I have had a lot of bad experiences/negative side effects with a lot of meds over the years!! I have a bad time with summer alergies! I also found out that allergy meds can increase this problem, so I need to find out which ones could be causing this. I know it could be a interaction between meds. I'm going to look each one up online to see if I can find anything that will help and solve this distressing issue!

My relationship with my wife is a good one and aside from my occasional sleep disorder acting up, my house is a peaceful one!
