A sleep disorder, or somnipathy, is a medical disorder of the sleep
patterns of a person or animal. Some sleep disorders are serious
enough to interfere with normal physical, mental and emotional
functioning. A test commonly ordered for some sleep disorders is the
polysomnography.

Disruptions in sleep can be caused by a variety of issues, from teeth
grinding (bruxism) to night terrors. When a person suffers from
difficulty in sleeping with no obvious cause, it is referred to as
insomnia.In addition, sleep disorders may also cause sufferers to
sleep excessively, a condition known as hypersomnia. Management of
sleep disturbances that are secondary to mental, medical, or substance
abuse disorders should focus on the underlying conditions. Some
proposed Sleep Disorders include Sleep-Related NeurogenicTachypnea,
Sleep-Related Laryngospasm and Sleep Choking Syndrome

The most common sleep disorders include:

Primary insomnia: Chronic difficulty in falling asleep and/or
maintaining sleep when no other cause is found for these symptoms.
Bruxism: Involuntarily grinding or clenching of the teeth while
sleeping.
Delayed sleep phase syndrome (DSPS): inability to awaken and fall
asleep at socially acceptable times but no problem with sleep
maintenance, a disorder of circadian rhythms. (Other such disorders
are advanced sleep phase syndrome (ASPS), non-24-hour sleep-wake
syndrome (Non-24), and irregular sleep wake rhythm, all much less
common than DSPS, as well as the transient jet lag and shift work
sleep disorder.)
Hypopnea syndrome: Abnormally shallow breathing or slow respiratory
rate while sleeping.
Narcolepsy: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) often culminating in
falling asleep spontaneously but unwillingly at inappropriate times.
Cataplexy: a sudden weakness in the motor muscles that can result in
collapse to the floor.
Night terror: Pavor nocturnus, sleep terror disorder: abrupt awakening
from sleep with behavior consistent with terror.
Parasomnias: Disruptive sleep-related events involving inappropriate
actions during sleep; sleep walking and night-terrors are examples.
Periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD): Sudden involuntary movement of
arms and/or legs during sleep, for example kicking the legs. Also
known as nocturnal myoclonus. See also Hypnic jerk, which is not a
disorder.
Rapid eye movement behavior disorder (RBD): Acting out violent or
dramatic dreams while in REM sleep (REM sleep disorder or RSD)
Restless legs syndrome (RLS): An irresistible urge to move legs. RLS
sufferers often also have PLMD.
Situational circadian rhythm sleep disorders: shift work sleep
disorder (SWSD) and jet lag.
Sleep Apnea, and mostly Obstructive sleep apnea: Obstruction of the
airway during sleep, causing lack of sufficient deep sleep; often
accompanied by snoring. Other forms of sleep apnea are less common.
The air is blocked from entering into the lungs, causing the
individual to unconsciously gasp for air. The individual will pause
for an average of ten seconds in order to breath. This is commonly
found in overweight, middle-aged men but is also found in people who
have suffered from stroke.
Sleep paralysis: is characterized by temporary paralysis of the body
shortly before or after sleep. Sleep paralysis may be accompanied by
visual, auditory or tactile hallucinations. Not a disorder unless
severe. Often seen as part of narcolepsy.
Sleepwalking or somnambulism: Engaging in activities that are normally
associated with wakefulness (such as eating or dressing), which may
include walking, without the conscious knowledge of the subject.
Nocturia: A frequent need to get up and go to the bathroom to urinate
at night. It differs from Enuresis, or bed-wetting, in which the
person does not arouse from sleep, but the bladder nevertheless
empties.
Somniphobia: a dread of sleep.

Types

Dyssomnias - A broad category of sleep disorders characterized by
either hypersomnolence or insomnia. The three major subcategories
include intrinsic (i.e., arising from within the body), extrinsic
(secondary to environmental conditions or various pathologic
conditions), and disturbances of circadian rhythm. MeSH
Insomnia: An inability to get the amount of sleep needed to restore
our physical and mental condition. Insomnia is often a symptom of a
mood disorder (i.e., emotional stress, anxiety, depression) or
underlying health condition (i.e., asthma, diabetes, heart disease,
pregnancy or neurological conditions).
Narcolepsy: A chronic neurological disorder (or dyssomnia), which is
caused by the brain's inability to control sleep and wakefulness.
Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB), including (non exhaustive):
Several types of Sleep apnea
Snoring
Upper airway resistance syndrome
Restless leg syndrome
Periodic limb movement disorder
Hypersomnia
Recurrent hypersomnia - including Kleine-Levin syndrome
Posttraumatic hypersomnia
"Healthy" hypersomnia
Circadian rhythm sleep disorders
Delayed sleep phase syndrome
Advanced sleep phase syndrome
Non-24-hour sleep-wake syndrome
Parasomnias - A category of sleep disorders that involve abnormal and
unnatural movements, behaviors, emotions, perceptions, and dreams in
connection with sleep.
REM sleep behaviour disorder
Sleep terror (or Pavor nocturnus)- Characterized by a sudden arousal
from deep sleep with a scream or cry, accompanied by some behavioral
manifestations of intense fear.
Sleepwalking (or somnambulism)
Bruxism (Tooth-grinding)
Bedwetting or sleep enuresis.
Sleep talking (or somniloquy)
Sleep sex (or sexsomnia)
Exploding head syndrome - Waking up in the night hearing loud noises.
Medical or Psychiatric Conditions that may produce sleep disorders
Psychosis (such as Schizophrenia)
Mood disorders
Depression
Anxiety
Panic
Alcoholism
Sleeping sickness - a parasitic disease which can be transmitted by
the Tsetse fly.
