Do you punch your bed partner in the middle of the night?
“REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a sleep disorder characterized by violent (or other dangerous) behavior during the REM or dream or nightmare phase of sleep. This behavior can include punching, kicking, yelling, jumping out of bed often in response to specific content of the dream that is being experienced.
