Nanini na xa umlingiswa kumdlalo bhanyabhanya okanye kumabonwakude evuka ngesiquphe ezinzulwini zobusuku kwaye eqala ukulala ezantsi epasejini, imeko ikhangeleka intle. Amehlo abo adla ngokutsalwa evuleke, iingalo zabo zoluliwe, bayashixiza ngakumbi njenge zombie kunomntu wokwenyani, ophilayo. Kwaye, ewe, ngokuqinisekileyo bayayikhathaza into ekukhathazayo ubusuku bonke.

Ngaphandle kwale mifanekiso ithandwayo, iimeko zokulala zihlala zibonakala zahlukile. Imeko yenqaku: TikToker @celinaspookyboo, aka Celina Myers, ebethumela umfanekiso wekhamera yokhuseleko ehamba elala ubusuku bonke, kwaye yeyona nto ibuhlungu uya kuyibona iveki yonke. (I-ICYMI, iiTikTokers zixoxa malunga nokuba kufuneka ulale kwiikawusi zakho ukuze uphumle ngcono.)

U-Myers-umbhali, umnini webhrendi yobuhle, kunye nomsingathi wepodcast emini- kuqala wathumela malunga nemeko yakhe yokulala ebuya ngoDisemba. Kwividiyo ene-virus, ye-selfie, uthi wayelele ebhedini, wazivalela ngaphandle kwegumbi awayehlala kulo, wavuka eholweni. Eyona nto imbi: Wathi wayehamba ze ngokupheleleyo. (Ubume Ufikelele kuMyers kwaye akafumana mpendulo ngexesha lokupapashwa.)

Kwiinyanga ukusukela oko, u-Myers wathumela ezinye iziqeshana ezibonisa iindlela zakhe zokulala, zonke zibanjiwe ngeteyiphu ziikhamera yena nomyeni wakhe ababezimisile kwindlu yabo yonke. ukuyishukumisa kubonakale ngathi "yityuwa kwindlela eqhubayo," ekule meko, yindawo yakhe yokuhlala. Kamva ebusuku, u-Myers wabuyela egumbini lokuhlala, kubonakala ukuba uyalala kwakhona, kwaye uqala ukububuvuvu-njengokuthi, "Ndikulwile, Chad," ngendlela yesiNgesi- kwaye ukhomba kwigumbi lonke. Ngumboniso obonakala ngathi utsalwe ngqo kuwo Umsebenzi weParanormal, kodwa kunzima ukuzinqanda ekuhlekeni. (Idibeneyo: Esi Sifo sokulala sisifo esiLungileyo sokuFumanisa ukuba ngu-Owl oBalaseleyo ebusuku)

Kwaye sisiqalo nje sayo. UMyers ukwabelane ngeziqendu zobisi lwakhe lwetshokolethi echuliweyo (FYI, uthi yena akanyamezeli lactose), egigitheka njengegeza elikhohlakeleyo kwimuvi kaDisney Pixar, ejijisana nengwane exutyiweyo, efafaza imbewu yethanga kumgangatho wegumbi lokuhlala - lonke ixesha elala. .

Ezi TikToks ziqhwaba ngamadolo kunokuba yingozi kakhulu ukuba ungakholelwa, kodwa uMyers uthe kwividiyo kaJanuwari kade ukuba, ngokwenene, ziyinyani. "Nje ukuba ndiqale ukunibona nithandile [iividiyo] zokulala, ndaqala ukuyibangela," ucacisile kwividiyo. "Njengokuba ndisitsho kwividiyo zam ezininzi, ukuba nditya itshizi okanye itshokholethi ngaphambi kokuba ndilale, kwangoko ndiyokulala kanye, [ukuhamba ngokulala] kuhlala kuyakwenzeka, njengeepesenti ezingama-80 zamathuba."

Ukuba uceba ukuzama ukuqalisa isiqendu sobuthongo ngokwakho ngethemba lokuba ngumntu olala ngentsholongwane njengoMyers, amathuba akho mancinci kakhulu. Ukulala kunqabile, nangona kuxhaphake kakhulu ebantwaneni nakubantu abanembali yosapho lwesi sifo, uchaza uLauri Leadley, umfundisi-ntsapho wokulala eklinikhi kunye nomseki weZiko lokulala e-Valley e-Arizona, ongazange avume ukuthetha ngemeko ethile kaMyers. U-Leadley uthi iingcali zixilonga ii-parasomnias ezimbini, okanye ukuphazamiseka kokulala okubangela ukuziphatha okungaqhelekanga ngelixa ulele: ukulala (aka somnambulism) kunye nokuphazamiseka kokuziphatha kokulala kwamehlo (okanye i-RBD). Kwaye nganye iyenzeka kwiindawo ezahlukileyo kumjikelo wakho wokulala.

Ebusuku bonke, umzimba wakho ujikeleza kubuthongo obunge-REM (uhlobo olunzulu, oluhlaziyayo) kunye nobuthongo obuyi-REM (xa usoloko uphupha) , kunye namaza engqondo anciphisa ukuya kumanqanaba asezantsi, ngokutsho kweThala leLizwe lezeMpilo laseMelika. Njengoko ingqondo izama ukusuka kwelinye inqanaba lokulala liye kwelandelayo, kunokubakho ukunqamka, kubangele ukuba ingqondo ivuswe kwaye inokubangela ukuba ulale, utshilo uLeadley. Ngexesha lesigama sokulala, unokuhlala ebhedini kwaye ujonge ngokungathi uvukile; vuka uhambe; okanye wenze izinto ezintsonkothileyo ezinjengokuhlengahlengisa ifanitshala, ukunxiba iimpahla okanye ukuzikhulula, okanye ukuqhuba imoto, ngokwe-NLM. Inxalenye eyothusayo: “Inkoliso yabantu abalalayo abakhumbuli okanye bakhumbule amaphupha abo ngenxa yokuba abavuki ngokwenene,” wongezelela ngelitshoyo uLeadley. "Bakumanqanaba anzulu kangaka okulala." (Idibeneyo: Ngaba i-NyQuil ingabangela ukulahleka kweMemori?)

Kwi-flip side, abantu abane-RBD - abafunyanwa ngokuqhelekileyo kumadoda angaphezu kwama-50 kunye nabantu abaneengxaki ze-neurodeergenerative (ezifana nesifo sika-Parkinson okanye isifo sengqondo esixhalabisayo) - unako bakhumbule amaphupha abo xa bevuka, utsho uLeadley. Ngokulala okuqhelekileyo kwe-REM, izihlunu zakho eziphambili (cinga: iingalo kunye nemilenze), ngokuyintloko, "zikhubazekile okwethutyana," ngokweCleveland Clinic. Kodwa ukuba unayo i-RBD, ezi zihlunu zisasebenza ngexesha lokulala kwe-REM, ukuze umzimba wakho ukwazi ukwenza amaphupha akho, ucacisa uLeadley. "Enoba ulala okanye une-RBD, zombini ziyingozi kakhulu kuba awuyazi indawo ekungqongileyo; ukwimo engazinzanga," utsho. "Ukuba ukwimeko engekho zingqondweni, yintoni eya kukuthintela ukuba uphume ngomnyango, uwele kwidama lakho lokuqubha, kwaye ubethe intloko yakho endleleni?"

Kodwa iingozi ezingokomzimba, ezikhawulezileyo eziza nokulala kunye ne-RBD zisisiqingatha kuphela sengxaki. Cinga ngengqondo yakho njengeselfowuni, utshilo uLeadley. Ukuba ulibale ukuyiplaga ifowuni yakho ngaphambi kokuba ulale okanye icinywe kwitshaja ezinzulwini zobusuku, ayizukufumana ibhetri eyaneleyo ukuyenza imini yonke, uyacacisa. Kwangokunjalo, ukuba ingqondo yakho ayijiki kakuhle kumanqanaba okulala angenayo i-REM kunye ne-REM- ngenxa yokuphazamiseka okanye ukuvuswa okunokubangela ukulala okanye ukwenza amaphupha akho-ingqondo yakho ayihlawulisi ngokupheleleyo, utshilo uLeadley. Oku kungakhokelela ekudiniweni kwixesha elifutshane, kwaye ukuba oko kwenzeka rhoqo ngokwaneleyo, kungathatha iminyaka ebomini bakho, utshilo.

Kungenxa yoko le nto ukulawula okubangela kubalulekile. Ukuba uqhelene nokulala okanye une-RBD, i-caffeine, utywala, amayeza athile (afana ne-sedatives, antidepressants, kunye neziyobisi ezisetyenziselwa ukunyanga i-narcolepsy), uxinzelelo lomzimba kunye neemvakalelo, kunye neeshedyuli zokulala ezingahambelaniyo zinokunyusa amathuba akho esiqendu, Utsho uLeadley. "Ngokuqhelekileyo siya kucebisa ezi zigulane ukuba zijolise ekuqinisekiseni ukuba ziya kulala ngexesha elifanayo kwaye zivuke ngexesha elifanayo, zigcine isiqhelo, kwaye zilawule amanqanaba oxinzelelo [ukukhusela ukulala okanye i-RBD]," wongeza.

Ngelixa uMyers engekabizi ukuba ubonile ingcali yokulala okanye ukuba uzama ukugcina izinto ezinokubangela ukuba zithintele, kubonakala ngathi wenza eyona nto ikhethekileyo - kwaye iyonwabisa kakhulu - imeko. "Ihlabathi yindawo engcolileyo, kwaye, ngathi, kuvakala kamnandi ukuba abantu bayagigitheka kuyo," utshilo uMyers kwividiyo kwinyanga ephelileyo. "UAdam [umyeni wam] uhlala ehleli, kwaye andizange ndibe yingozi. Ukunyaniseka, ukubukela iividiyo emva kundenza ndihleke kakhulu kuba ndim, kodwa njengam, kungekhona mna, kuba andiyikhumbuli. Ukuphela kosuku, ewe, ziyinyani. "
