Answer 3

Somniloquy literally means “sleep talking”. Although classified as a parasomnia, talking during sleep is generally considered of no medical or psychological consequence.

Sleep talking can occur at any point in the sleep cycle. The lighter the sleep, the more intelligible the speech. In stages 1 and 2, people may have entire conversations while asleep. In stages 3 and 4, somniloquy may be restricted to moans and gibberish.

People who talk while asleep have no awareness that they are talking, and often speak in an emotionless tone. Somniloquy is not generally considered a serious problem unless other disorders, such as somnambulism and apnea, are involved. Anxiety disorders, stress, and fevers often make people talk more. Somnilioquy is one of the mysteries of sleep – scientists still don’t know why it happens.

If somniloquy proves irritating to others in the household, you can try these tips to reduce it.

    * Avoid heavy meals before bedtime.

    * Get enough rest: sleep deprivation increases somniloquy.

    * Reduce stress levels

    * Practice proper sleep hygiene.
