Quite often People with PD (edited just for E & A) report thrashing or fighting in their dreams and acting this out while sleeping, so their partner must sleep elsewhere.
But sometimes those vivid dreams are powerful and life-confirming.
Tell me about your dreams -
Yes for awhile I also had these, however they are far less wild today. A suggestion was given to me to nap during the day. The belief here is that stress build up during the day increased the issue. I now nap daily from 1400-1500 daily. This has not stopped them but calmed them down a lot.
RSD (REM Sleep Disorder) Talk to your Neurologist there’s medication for it.
@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member - I apologize for using the term "Parkies" if you really don't like it. I suppose the politically correct term is PWP (People With Parkinson's, or Person With Parkinson's). I like "Parkies" because to me it minimizes the disease, & anything I can do to minimize PD for myself & for others, I will do. To me PWP seems impersonal, but I will be happy to use it on MPT as long as you & I are both members, which hopefully will be a good, long time!
