ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО NIGHTMARE
Кошмар
Кошмар - это неприятный сон, который может вызвать сильную эмоциональную реакцию от ума, как правило, страх или ужас, а также отчаяние, беспокойство и великую печаль. Мечта может содержать ситуации опасности, дискомфорта, психологического или физического террора. Страдающие часто пробуждаются в состоянии бедствия и не могут долго спать в течение длительного периода. У кошмаров могут быть физические причины, такие как сон в неудобном или неудобном положении, лихорадка или психологические причины, такие как стресс, беспокойство и побочный эффект различных лекарств. Питание перед сном, которое вызывает увеличение метаболизма и активности мозга, является потенциальным стимулом для ночных кошмаров. Повторяющиеся кошмары могут потребовать медицинской помощи, так как они могут мешать снам и вызвать бессонницу.
