Sleep Disorders, anyone?
I have been recently diagnosed with R.E.M. Sleep Behavior Disorder. I have had these "episodes" for aslong as I can remember. Sleeping is supposed to feel serene and relaxing but with me, I'm actually quite afraid of going to sleep.
Anyone else have this or maybe another type of sleep disorder/Parainsomnia? Do you feel certain things/foods/activities throughout the day trigger it? What do you do before bed to help?
I feel as though it is not talked about enough, but it should be! It not only affects my health but it has taken a toll on my fiancé and even my children.
I attached a photo of what I did to my leg in one of my episodes just 2 weeks ago.
I saw a figure jump on me to cover my mouth and In reality I was kicking and flailing my legs at my sons Playpen, ended up bruising and swelling up my calf. 😑
