Sleep related eating disorder (SRED) is a parasomnia. A parasomnia involves undesired events that come along with sleep. SRED consists of repeated episodes of compulsive binge eating and drinking after waking up in the night. Episodes always occur in an âout of controlâ manner. They tend to occur when you are only partially awake.
Sleepwalking and night terrors are different manifestations of the same parasomnia. Nightmare is a scary dream but you wake up and in some seconds you understand that you were just dreaming. When night terror occurs, the child can walk/run around and scream without beeing able to tell what he/she is afraid of.
