“Sleeping Disorders”

Sleeping disorders can affect ones’ life in many ways. I just found out about some disorders that some people might not even think really exist. In chapter five they give examples of some sleeping disorders that many people have heard of like sleep walking, insomnia, and so on.
In class we watched a video were this guy was sound asleep and would get up in the middle of the night to eat food. They set up a video camera in the kitchen and then the next day they showed it to him and he was like I do not even remember doing any of this. He really wanted help because his sleeping disorder was causing him to gain weight. If I would have not seen this in class I don’t think I would believe this story to be true.
There was also this boy and a girl that could not get up everyday and would sleep enormous amounts of time. The young boy said he has slept ten days at a time and has missed so much because of this rear sleeping disorder. The young lady has slept for almost five months at a time. I could not even imagine what that would be like. This was
also another disorder I had to see to believe.
I am so glad that I don’t have a sleeping disorder because I think if I did then I would just go crazy. I don’t some people that have sleeping disorders even know they might have one and that can be a bad thing, like sleep walking can be very dangerous because one does not have complete control over what they might be doing. I also think that a lot of people don’t know how many different types of sleeping disorders that are out there but all I know is that I am glad that I now know about different sleeping disorders.
Chapter five does not really talk about that many sleeping disorders and I am glad that we talk about things that are in the chapters in class because it helps me out a lot on understanding things a lot better....
