What is Rhythmic Movement Disorder?
Rhythmic movement disorder is a group of stereotyped, repetitive movements involving large muscles. usually of the head and neck, which typically occur immediately before sleep onset and are sustained into light sleep.
Also known as jactatio capitis nocturna, headbanging, headrolling, bodyrocking, bodyrolling, rythmie du sommeil. The term rythmic movement disorder is preferred as different body areas may be involved in the movement activity.
What are the symptoms?
* Rythmic body movements occurring during drowsiness or sleep
* At least one of the following types of movement is present
o The head is forcibly moved in a back and forward direction - headbanging type
o The head is moved laterally while in a supine (lying on the back, face up) position - headrolling type
o The whole body is rocked while on the hands and knees - bodyrocking type
o The whole body is moved laterally while in a supine position - bodyrolling type
oh well... its just something that has been bothering me because i feel i should have out grown it by now, and i just fear i may never, which can result in problems in relationships, due to causing restless sleep to my partner..
but mikey, thank you very much man, it does mean alot that someone here is willing to share their story too.
