Parasomnias

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Parasomnias are unwanted behaviors or experiences occurring during sleep or in the transitions into and out of it.

Show

Sleepwalking arises out of N3 sleep, with the sleeper unresponsive and later unable to recall it.

Watch for

Waking a sleepwalker is not dangerous, though it is disorienting. Guiding them back is usually enough.
