Question
why am i scratching myself in my sleep,on my face,especially on my eyes(good thing they are shut)or my poor eyeballs!the scratching and leaving some rather deep painful scratches is not limited to my face.my thighs and even my boyfriend got scratched once on his chest.we cuddle at night so im curious what is really the cause and why am i inflicting this violence?
Answer
While I dont know what the problem may be. I can suggest one cut your fingernails and wear cotton gloves to sleep. Be sure that these episodes dont involve any twitching as they could be sleep seizures. Go to sleepnet.com click on the forum and try posting there. If it persists you might consider getting a consult at a sleep center. This could be some sort of stress induced problem.feel free to email again karel
