밤에 잠을 잘 때 의식하지는 못하지만 많은 일들이 일어난다. 미국의 폭스뉴스는 당신이 잠 잘 때 일어나는 황당한 일 5가지를 소개했다. 기괴한 행동들 같지만 전문가들은 “그러나 대부분 정상적인 것”이라고 말한다. 몸이 마비된다 아침에 잠을 깨는 순간 근육을 움직이거나 말을 할 수 없는 상태가 된다. 그 이유는 분명치 않지만 피곤하거나, 수면부족이었거나 스트레스를 많이 받는 상황일 경우가 대부분이다. 이러한 현상은 수면 중에 마비 상태 비슷하게 됐던 몸이 깨어나기 전에 두뇌가 먼저 깨어나기 때문에 일어나는 현상이다. 추락하는 느낌 잠이 들 때 느끼는 것 중에 대표적인 것은 절벽에서 떨어지고 있다는 느낌이다. 몸이 마비되는 이유와 비슷하게 피곤하거나, 스트레스를 많이 받는 상황일 때 이런 느낌을 갖게 되기 쉽다. 자면서 말하기 대체로 성인의 5%가 이런 증상이 있다. 이는 수면이 깊은 단계로 진입하기 전에 남아 있던 근육의 활동 에너지에 의한 것이다. 똑 같은 꿈을 꾸는 것 자꾸 같은 꿈을 꾸는 것은 뭔가 풀리지 않고 있는 심리적 문제가 있기 때문이다. 폭발성머리증후군 잠들 즈음에 갑자기 폭탄이 터지는 것 같은 소리가 들려서 잠을 깨기도 하는 수면장애의 일종이다. 문자 그대로 머리가 폭발하는 것 같은 느낌을 갖게 되는 데 두뇌는 수면을 취하려 하지만 아직 몸이 준비되지 않았을 때 일어나는 증상이다. 코메디닷컴 권순일 기자 (kstt77@kormedi.com) |
7 crazy things that happen while you sleep
By Paige Fowler Most nights, if you're lucky, sleep is a completely unremarkable event. But every so often you may experience bizarre behaviors that can leave you feeling completely confused--and perhaps slightly freaked out. Not to worry. We asked sleep docs to decode some of the craziest things that can occur from the moment you close your eyes--and most of them are totally normal. Feeling like you're falling Also known as a hypnagogic jerk, it tends to happen as you're falling asleep. Typically when you dream, your body is paralyzed, but sometimes you can start dreaming before your body is on "off" mode. With hypnagogic jerks, you might act out a dream like falling off a cliff, falling from the sky, or tripping, says Dr. W. Christopher Winter, Men's Health sleep advisor and medical director of the sleep center at Martha Jefferson Hospital in Virginia. Why the falling? Researchers aren't sure. "It's more likely to happen when you're overtired, sleep-deprived, or stressed," Winter says. "And your brain enters into sleep cycles more aggressively, but your body hasn't caught up." Sleep paralysis You start to wake up in the morning and realize you can't move a muscle or speak. It can last from several seconds to several minutes, and it's completely terrifying. Essentially, it's the opposite of what happens with hypnagogic jerks, where your brain wakes up before the paralysis that accompanies deep sleep goes away, Winter says. "You may feel like you can't breathe. Many people describe it as an elephant sitting on their chest. That's because all of the muscles that control your breathing except for the diaphragm are still paralyzed." Sleepwalking Most sleep-related behaviors are harmless. But sleepwalking can be a dangerous issue, since you can trip, walk into something, leave your house, and even get behind the wheel. "With sleepwalking, you're coming out of sleep just enough for your body to move, but not enough for your brain to be awake," says Winter. That's why you probably have no recollection of your late-night jaunts. The prescription sleep-aid Ambien has been linked to some of the more bizarre sleepwalking incidents including cooking, binge eating, and driving while zonked out. That's because even if you wake up during the night, the drug keeps your brain sedated so you're still in an unconscious state, Winter says. If you experience unusual or dangerous nighttime antics and pop the sleeping pill, talk to your doctor about switching prescriptions. Sleep-talking About 5 percent of adults yap in their sleep, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. Most pillow-talk sessions last only about 30 seconds on average. "It often happens within the first hour or two of sleep when your body is entering into deep stages of sleep, but there's still enough muscle tone to produce sounds or movements that may accompany dreams," says Winter. Recurring dreams "Dreaming is a way for your brain to sort out things it needs to reevaluate and process before it can file them away as memories," Winter says. "Recurring dreams may happen with unresolved psychological issues your brain is trying to sort out." Oftentimes, recurring dreams are based partly in reality. "If you were robbed at the grocery store, you might replay that over and over during sleep until you come to grips with it--whereas if you went to the store to get bread and milk, your brain would process it right away and move on," Winter adds. Sleep sex You're not the only one who has woken up mid-act. In a study of more than 800 patients at a sleep disorders center, about 8 percent of patients reported incidents of sexsomnia--initiating sex with a partner while asleep, according to researchers at the University Health Network in Toronto. "In my experience working with patients, the attitudes, behaviors, and things people may say during sleep sex are often very different from what they'd do and say when fully awake," Winter says. As a parasomnia, the phenomenon is similar to sleepwalking--you're coming partly out of deep sleep enough that you can move and possibly talk, but your brain isn't awake enough to be fully conscious. "Many people have a vague recollection of it happening during the night or they wake up during sex," says Winter. "It's possible you may have been dreaming about sex or perhaps you went to bed with the urge." Exploding head syndrome It's just as freaky as it sounds: "All of a sudden, the person wakes up having heard a really loud noise, like an explosion, a flash of light, or a sense that their head is exploding," says Dr. Winter. "In reality, nothing has actually happened." It's a type of hypnagogic jerk, similar to feeling like you're falling: You're heading toward deep sleep, but your body hasn't achieved paralysis yet, and your senses are still turned on. http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/04/27/7-crazy-things-that-happen-while-sleep/ |
