In medical science, it is called 'somnambulism'. In this disease caused due to imbalance in the mechanism of the brain, the patient wakes up in sleep and does some activity, but he himself is not aware of it. Professor and Senior Psychiatrist, SN Medical College, Jodhpur, Dr. GD Koolwal points out that in somnambulism the person is either normal. Can also perform complex tasks. They also refer to this as the 'hysterical dis-association reaction' (HDR). Such disorders are caused by excessive stress.
More dependence on technology: -
According to responsible experts, the increasing dependence on mobile and computers can also be a reason for this. In Sleeping Disorder, patients are not actually in deep sleep, and in such a situation they also do such tasks mentally, which are usually done in the waking state. However, most of the messages or emails sent from mobile while 'sleep texting' are meaningless. That is, the messages sent in the night are futile or fuzzy. Australian medical scientist Dr. David Cunningham also considers daily stress to be the main reason for this. He says that people use mobile or smartphone so much during the day that even at night they are not able to mentally separate or dis-associate from them. That is, sleep texting is the result of hard work, stress, and too much texting throughout the day. Due to this, the brain is not able to feel any difference between sleeping and waking up.
Less sleep is also a reason: -
According to experts, sleep texting means people who send messages in sleep are not able to sleep properly at night. Even in sleep, their mind remains active and remains engaged in the activities done during the day. That's why many doctors recommend keeping the phone away from the bed or turning it off at night. Experts believe that if the mobile phone is turned off about 2-3 hours before sleeping, then the chances of getting a good night's sleep increase. There is currently no major research or study about sleep texting, but medical scientists around the world are concerned about it. This side effect of excessive use of technology is very shocking and worrying.
The youth were most vulnerable: -
The disease of 'sleep texting' is affecting the youth the most. In fact, most of the texting on SMS and Facebook, etc. is done by the youth through smartphones. Apart from 'sleep texting', problems like emotional instability and physical inactivity are also being revealed in these youths. The person who has more habit of messaging has to face more problems. According to the journal Psychology of Popular Media Culture, its effect is seen more in youth and adolescents.
Avoid these too: -
Quit the habit of watching TV till late at night. Researchers from Osaka University in Japan believe that people who watch TV for a long time before sleeping, do not get good and sound sleep, and they may have to face the problem of insomnia in the future. Working long hours on a laptop is also harmful. This creates tension in the nerves of the eyes and the brain, which can lead to trouble sleeping. Playing games on a computer or mobile in free time before sleeping makes the brain hyperactive. Due to this, the stress of the body increases, and there is no sleep.
