REM behavior disorder (RBD) occurs when someone acts out a dream in his or her sleep.
Usually when you dream, your muscle tone is decreased – you are, in fact, partially paralyzed.
In rare instances, some people do not have a decrease in their muscle tone and begin to act out their dreams.
In addition, the dreams frequently become more violent than normal, and are often described as nightmares.
The classic situation is one in which someone wakes up punching a pillow and remembers dreaming he was in a fight. RBD is very rare, occurring most frequently in older men. Common causes of RBD include the use of certain medications (especially anti-depressants such as Prozac and Paxil) and withdrawal from certain sedatives (such as alcohol). RBD can also be associated with Parkinson's Disease, narcolepsy, and certain other neurologic diseases (e.g. rare brain degeneration disorders, strokes in certain areas of the brain). Usually, however, the cause is a mystery. Fortunately, there is effective medication for this problem. Contact your Doctor for further information on appropriate medication for this problem.
