Parasomnias are a class of disorders which include nightmares (which often occur during long REM periods), sleep walking and sleep talking, bed-wetting, body rocking during sleep onset and teeth grinding (which all occur during non-REM sleep, the latter often being identifiable by worn down teeth or a sore jaw). Night terrors are also in this class, and differ from nightmares in that they occur during non-REM sleep and are usually very intense so that the sleeper awakes in panic, often screaming, with heart pounding, and with less recall of dream content.[/b]
Quote:
REM Dreams and Non-REM dreams are very different from each other in a few major ways. The first difference between the two is Non-REM dreams consist of brief, fragmentary impressions. They are also less likely to involve visual images compared to REM sleep, and are more frequently forgotten. Non-REM dreams are like thinking about something during the day for a brief period of time while REM dreams are comparable to thinking deeply about something. REM sleep consists of about two hours a night while Non-REM sleep lasts about four to six hours.[/b]
i can get tons more evidence to show you the hypothesis that we dont dream during non-REM sleep is a myth. this particularly anger because this forum should no a basic fact like that or even a basic understanding of brain e.g. i bet 90 percent of the people in here think the brain left side is for language and right is picture drawing e.t.c. we forget dream a normal person would think a person only dream about once a week why because this belife is more acceptable then the true observation that we dream all night.
