Question

Mahalo is adding a tip to all questions that don't offer a tip.
Umm I think I have sexsomnia. How can I stop it?
I was not aware of it until my patner told me that while im asleep I begin moving my body back a forth like im having sex and moaning. On several different times he watched me do this. he even said I had an organsim. But when I wake up I have no memory of it so i assumed he was lying. That was until I woke up in the middle of it. It scared me so. I was having sex with him or touching myself it was like I was having sex with a person who wasnt there. What can I do to stop this?

Why you think you want to stop this . Sexual pleasures are the most basic needs of human you need to fulfil it . Moreover you are not getting any sexual thoughts/feelings during the day / when you are awake . it says you are not overly dependent on it . You are just fantasizing , that is very common in semi conscious state when you are sleeping with the partner . you need to have better, satisfied , hard , conscious sex . you couple can try tantric sex and some techniques to make love for longer periods and to get exhausted and to get in to sleep normally without delusions or fantasies . http://www.care2.com/greenliving/tantric-sex-for-beginners-4-easy-tips.html

There are many ways to try to solve this. First and foremost, see if there is a sleep lab in your state. They may be able to help treat your condition at no charge in exchange for you sleeping in the lab a few times. Yeah, it may be embarassing at first but the truth is, researching your sleep patterns may help others in the future. In the mean time: Make sure it's not apnea. You may look like you're in the throws of ecstacy when in fact you are gasping for air.
Consider a sleep aid. Sometimes there are particular stages of sleep when sexsomnia can occur. If you bypass or shorten those stages, it might help avoid an embarrassing situation.
Talk to your doctor. Mention your situation to your physician and see if there are any suggestions.
Devise a few boundaries with the kids. Sleep with your door closed and let them know that you need to keep your door closed at night. Believe it or not, that is a safer way to sleep. Your kids should have their doors closed at night as well, as it helps prevent smoke inhallation death if there is ever a fire in your home.
Sleep on the couch. Try sleeping on the couch. Sounds weird, I know, but your body may feel the couch while you are asleep and not go into acts of passion.

1.) Get a good dose of sunlight during the day, don't know why but it makes you sleepy.
2.) Spend the energy you consume in food, in a way that is natural for you - not forced like going to the gym. You gotta be brave, and sort of act like a kid again for at least a few hours a day. Be your real self. Dance or roll around on the floor, do something silly, whatever, as long as its natural for you and spends your energy, don't do it a few hours before bed or you'll wind yourself up.
3) Sleep in abject darkness. Darkness is an auto-signal to your brain that it is night and time to sleep. Its a non-nocturnal mammal thing, you are playing off your natural instincts. Same with lighting, try not to have bright artificial lights on an hour or two before bed, instead keep a low light.
4) Only sleep when you feel tired. This is the trickiest one. You have to listen to your body and get used to its signals, so you can 'catch the wave'. Eventually you'll zone in and THE time your body wants to fall asleep, and if you do, you just lay down and let go and it will happen faster than usual.
5) This is for dreamless sleep specifically: live an emotionally balanced life, and don't work yourself up within a few hours of bed. Don't think after a certain time, say two hours before bed you just turn it off. You don't think, you don't worry, you pretend you don't know anything and don't even realize a future or past exists. Become retarded. This is SO helpful and also difficult to do at first. Same goes for your body, don't work out or spend your energy or anything an hour or two before bed, just go into lazy mode.
As for emotional balance, take a neutral, or calm stance on whatever has been bothering you deep down, and throughout the day stuff too, and this is best done in the early evening or afternoon, if you can. You want to do it a good distance before you 'go retarded' and stop thinking because if you try to do it right before that, you may end up unable to slow down and stop your brain.
Even if you stop the conscious part of your brain its already too late, your subconscious will be working things out. This is he bulk of dreams. The whole trick is to try and get your subconscious to work things out, and settle on something, before you go to sleep. If your subconscious is settled, and at peace, it doesn't have anything to work with when you go to sleep. It'll just work out things that are so mundane and emotionally unattached that you will either not remember them or it won't even bother to show them to you in the form of dreams.
