Parasomnias encompass a range of abnormal behaviors and experiences during sleep, including motor activities, sensory experiences, and emotional distress. These symptoms vary depending on whether the parasomnia is related to NREM or REM sleep. While more common in children, certain parasomnias like RBD are prevalent in older adults and can be linked to neurodegenerative diseases. Emotional and psychological factors, as well as comorbid conditions, can influence the occurrence and severity of parasomnias.
