It can be short-term (then it lasts from a few days to a maximum of 4 weeks) or chronic (then it lasts more than a month). Symptoms include difficulty falling asleep, waking up prematurely, or waking up frequently during the night.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"zaburzenia-oddychania-podczas-snu\"><a><\/a>Breathing disorders during sleep<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This group includes m.in. sleep apnea. A person who struggles with it experiences interruptions in breathing during sleep, which results in fatigue during the day.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"hipersomnie\"><a><\/a>Hypersomnia<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is called excessive sleepiness. An example is narcolepsy, in which a person falls asleep during the day in an uncontrolled manner. We can also talk about hypersomnia when sleep is long and does not give a sense of rest.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"zaburzenia-rytmu-okolodobowego\"><a><\/a>Circadian arrhythmias<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here, for example, we are dealing with problems with falling asleep before 3-4 a.m. or falling asleep very early in the evening.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"parasomnie\"><a><\/a>Parasomnia<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By this term we mean undesirable behaviors, e.g. nightmares, sleepwalking or sleep paralysis (the inability to move while maintaining consciousness). Some parasomnias, such as sleepwalking, are particularly common in children.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"zaburzenia-ruchowe-zwiazane-ze-snem\"><a><\/a>Sleep-related movement disorders<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most popular of these disorders is restless legs syndrome. A person then experiences unpleasant sensations in the legs, which force him to move them. We can also include nocturnal muscle cramps, i.e. painful cramps (most often of the calf muscles) that lead to awakenings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The most common sleep disorders are insomnia, sleep breathing disorders, hypersomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, parasomnias, and sleep-related movement disorders.
