Why do people treat this like a disease? I myself used to sleep very late, like around 5 am and wake up at 10am. Now I fall asleep around 9pm or so and wake up at 5am. To me if just seems like I got my shit right and now get to enjoy the day earlier than everyone else. I pretty much fixed my sleep schedule
Does the patient get measured while awake? There has to be some kind of driver behind this that's measurable, even during pre-nap. Something drives me into that, even if this might not happen more than once a day. I get a severe drive in the afternoon, and I nap once. It's hugely driven by something, even if I have a great sleep and some caffeine in the morning.
Thanks for the video. Very informative. Gonna talk to Dr about tomm-this is my last resort. Seroquel has made be blow up gain 40 lbs and worst med ever for sleep
It usually happens to me when I'm at work I work night shift. And I fell asleep instantly and start dreaming and usually I'm talking to somebody in my sleep and it wakes me up
Doctor I have been struggling with Hypersomnia and memory issues i tried many antidepressants Vortioxetine Bupropion together and Highest Dose of Atmoxetine nothing helped me went to countless Doctors All of them Are not Helpful Just ignoring my symptoms i have to come up with research to look up for solutions for my problems
Thanks for sharing this. I’ve had this for at least a few years now that I’m aware of. My husband and kids started commenting on it and my husband said he thought it was snoring at first but realized I was humming and groaning. I’ve woken myself up several times doing this and each time I did I looked over and saw my poor husband on his phone bot being able to sleep. I feel bad but don’t know how to stop it. I feel like the times I woke up and was aware of it, it was a soothing feeling. And I also remember being in the middle of a conversation in my dream and waking up to making the sounds. So, it may also be related to sleep talking even though I’m not saying words, I do feel like in my dream I was trying to talk while I was humming/groaning so that could possibly be something too. The problem I’m mostly having though, is that it’s waking me up from deep REM sleep. So I decided to record myself sleeping tonight and when I woke my self up after an hour of sleeping I listened to the recording, and I must say it was pretty loud and very strange sounding. Almost like a rattling sound that sounds like a cross between a cat purring and a motor bike on start up with a slight humming sounds at the end, repeated over and over on every exhale. I eventually work myself up doing it. And this happens all night, I’m constantly waking myself up, and it’s hard getting myself back to sleep sometimes. Once I’m awake I need go pee immediately, so I get up 3-6 times a night to pee and after that my body has already gotten up and moved around, so it takes longer to get back to sleep and shut my brain off.
I have a fatal insomnia. I might not have The Disease per say but I definatley have taken a form of fatal insomnia. It happened to me through nervous breakdown and exhaustion. I have no sleepinesss at all in my brain and I am on so many sedatives to knock me out ast night but they are wearing off, from getting knocked out within 30 mins to now 3 hours and thej I waken after 3 hours. I am in the darkest corner of any human and on the verge of hell.
@@raerdev I am so sorry to hear that. I am at the end. I really need to die. Last night it was like anothet person living in me torturing me keeping me awake.
@@shrirammaiya9867 I do not understand. Fatal Insomnia is a disorder where getting over and staying asleep is a problem. I have had it for 7 months now and I am quaking.
I tried everything he said. It doesn't get fixed permanently. 2 weeks is the maximum it stays at the right times, but after that it again starts to shift forward :( I think it has something to do with a muscle in the brain. That muscle keeps forcing some part in the brain to stay awake. I felt it many times. That muscle feeling slowed down (Temporarily) every time I tried to relax myself.
Doesn't FFI affect 50 families worldwide? Curiously the number seems to increase over a span of time. Also, the number of countries of origin of these victims seems to increase. First it was the Venice region of Italy and today has expanded to Germany, Spain and even China.
I see lots of comments pushing back on how z drugs aren't the best thing. They're not the best thing. It's just something that works, but is memory loss worth it? I guess it can be, but before trying dependence causing meds it's best to try things that don't cause dependence or mess with your mind. You have to be careful about things that work great but then cause problems later. People saying they don't have a problem with Z drugs, good for you, but that's not the outcome for everyone and the only way you can find out is by rolling dice. I say stay far away from Z drugs if possible.
I’m 37 and believe I’ve had sleep inertia since I was a child (like elementary school). I cannot hear my alarm (same when I was a kid). In my sleep I press snooze, or turn it off, or ignore it. Sometimes in my dream I tell myself to ignore it. So I don’t need to get up - in reality I do need to get up. I have adhd so my time and sense of time is internally warped in my view. I’ve nearly missed flights, work, events, annoyed partners with my alarm going on/off and I’m like a zombie. Takes 1-2 hours to rise. How do I combat that? I’ve only found out this has the label of ‘sleep inertia’ very recently. I just thought I had something wrong with me.
They have my mom taking the generic ones and she is literally crying right now because they ain’t working and they won’t switch her back the gov insurance is junk right now she is disabled so she has allot of pain
i have this disorder and mine sounds very sexual. definitely moaning and not groaning. my family never told me. it was my roommate in college who sent me a video and i was HORRIFIED. no ever since ive been afraid to sleep around men… lol (but actually not funny at all). my grandmom also has it, but hers sounds more like high pitched groaning. and now my four year old niece has it 🩷 sounds like a long little hum.
You talk about hypnagogic and hypnopompic states, which occur during the transition between wakefulness and sleep. When they occur when you are going to sleep, they are called hypnagogic and when they occur when you are waking, they are called hypnopompic. Are separate terms really needed for these states? I'm sure I'm not alone in having experienced such states and then going back to sleep without waking. What would you call them in such cases?
I have daytime sleepiness, not at a Narcolepsy level but enough to impair my job. daytime sleepiness is part of my distimia, and I also have anxiety , ocd etc. etc.. I am doing better taking just coffee which keeps me awake the whole day, point is that I think that even taking antidepressant and stimulant for serotonine, noradrenaline and dopamine, won't be enough to give me the energy enough to bring me as an energetical level of a normal person. My thesis after many years is that the sleeping problem is the real secret to find a real cure also for depression. we are thermodynamic machines. but i think we are 100 hundred years before not ready for these concepts.
You dropped “date rape drug” twice. As a newcomer with no prior knowledge. This provocative statement goes unanswered. It’s a doozy of a word to drop and not address later on.
Hey Doctor, Can you help me, make a suggestion ? I developed photophobia about 11 months after developing chronic insomnia, and one psychiatric physician assistant never heard of it, nor understood it, nor a sleep psychologist that teaches CBT-I heard of it, understood it either. Thank you !
I have bad tinnitus. Trazodone calms my fear and anxiety knowing it never stops! I can’t get to sleep on it, so I take half a Zolpidem to get into sleep, and 50mg Trazodone. Sadly i have thought of ending my existence with this tinnitus? I fear sunset, watching the clock as bedtime approaches. I cut a 10mg to take 5mg with Trazodone, but my Dr said he would only prescribe me Zolpidem once?
I'm on 50 mg of Hydroxine and 150mg of Trazodone before bed ....i also take 10mg of Lexapro its been helping me sleep very well and feel good the next day....is this ok to take indefinitely?
I have severe sleep apnea and used Provent EPAP until, unfortunately, they stopped manufacturing it. As measured in my hospital sleep lab tests, Provent was shown to successfully treat my severe sleep apnea to the same degree as CPAP. Mouth breathing was a non issue as, just like with CPAP, while sleeping my mouth stayed closed.
I had this growing up together with sleep talking/walking and teeth grinding. This is why I don't like sleeping with friends. My partner or my mother always wakes me up whenever they hear me moan in my sleep saying I must've had a bad dream. I had an incident where I slept at work cause I was so tired and my co-workers were waking me up all of them heard me and ask why I was moaning. This usually happens when I'm tired and lacks sleep.
I cant sleep without taking trazadone at night. I get great sleep but I am basically non functional the next day. I can't think straight and can barely move from my bed to my couch. It makes me want to eat and snack all the time even though I may not even be hungry. I've gained so much weight. I feel like a complete zombie that's detached from functioning. Simple things like paying bills or showering don't even cross my mind. I feel like I'm here but not. I don't know what to do because I can't sleep without it but I'm a vegatable.
"Ambien will not cause withdrawal." Do some research: it can cause seizures and die. The withdrawal effects are probably the worst. Cigarettes, alcohol is nothing compared to this. Very dishonest review!
