Some believe that catathrenia could be linked to jaw size. Another popular theory among those with catathrenia is that competitive swimming triggers the issue, which would make the most sense for me; I was a competitive swimmer for years and often had trouble holding my breath. Zaghi believes that catathrenia could be several different disorders with different causes. Like most people with catathrenia, I sleep just fine. Zaghi says. There are some steps that can be taken for those whose catathrenia is impacting their sleep quality.
For some, asking their bed fellows to wear earplugs or use a white noise machine is the best option. To get our top stories delivered to your inbox, sign up for the Healthy Living newsletter.

By Morgan Spehar. Can groaning lead to serious medical conditions the same way that snoring can? What exactly is catathrenia and how can it be cured? Here we discuss this rare and strange sleep disorder, and put to ease any concerns you may have about the consequences of groaning in your sleep.
Other entries in this class of sleep disorders are obstructive sleep apnea , central sleep apnea , sleep-related hypoventilation, sleep related hypoxemia, and snoring. Up until the ICSD-3, catathrenia was considered to be a parasomnia characterized as an abnormal or unusual behavior during sleep similar to somniloquy sleep talking. However, a study published in Journal Sleep distinguished catathrenia as a sleep-related breathing disorder rather than a parasomnia. Catathrenia is characterized as groaning sounds emitted during expiration of breathing.
The groaning sounds typically occur during the rapid eye movement REM stages of sleep, and are often preceded by bradypnea breathing slow breathing of long, deep breaths. The study mentioned above found that all patients with catathrenia had nearly identical symptoms of "deep inspiration without sound production followed by prolonged expiration with groaning, usually lasting from at least 2 to 20 seconds. It was also found that the nocturnal groaning alternated with normal breathing throughout the night and sometimes within the same sleep cycle.
Groaning occurs during expiration; Snoring occurs during inhalation. While the groaning noises may be irritable to listen to by a bed-partner, the disorder is not related to any serious medical conditions. He does not know he does these things but I am losing sleep over it and go into another room about three times a week.
Would the medical face mask help him? He has one but has not used it yet. What should he do? I am afraid of getting hit bad in the head.
Been experiencing this sort of thing for years. But everyone around me gets to hear it at night. Hopefully a good solution comes out soon. My buddy makes horrible monster like groans and growls just as he is awakening in the morning. It actually sounds like a possessed demon escaping from hell. Is this Catathrenia??? I do I get help for my friend and myself??
I have developed this over the last 3 years. I am almost My husband hears it not me so much. I used to have asthma but grew out of it around age I have noticed I breath through my mouth at night.
The only things that have helped are to not eat after 7 or 8pm and to avoid all caffeine including chocolate. PS- my grandmother had this too. Steve: I have exacty the same, only worse; impossible fr anyone to sleep bear me OR next rooms even with door shut.
They are sure I somehow suffer or am in a terrible, terrible pain, or dying! I have asthma and apnea caused by terrible working environment, it started soon after I joined it. My breathing stops for a long time, they say, it looks as if I am in a nightmare. Of course I am in none of these situations, at least I cannot remember terror or fear or stress in my sleep.
I am only too sorry people get terrified, impossible to share a bed or a room or a small house with someone. THAT is terrifying alright! Funny thing I. My husband started this sleep moaning just 6 weeks before he died at age I taped the moaning so he could hear it and he claimed he had been having very strange dreams but could not identify them to a person or place. I wonder if he was really talking to people in his sleep because he would change tones and many times he seemed to be answering or asking a question, the sounds would grow very load and then sometimes soft, After a few minutes of this he would become silent and breath in a heavy panting pattern and then it would start all over again.
He did this as soon as closed his eyes and it continued throughout the entire time, night after night and day after day for 6 weeks. He had to have a mass removed around his heart and his heart gave out immediately following the surgery. He even mentioned to me that he felt he was going to die weeks before the surgery.
The tapes I have clearly show me he was having conversations with people who have already passed away. Does anyone know if there has been any studies on this in relationship to those who are in fact in a stage of death? Hi there. I was looking for someone who does this when awake and found no info but the same questions on this site.
I thought it was in relation to this. The other things is increasing stiff joint back etc.. Last year I had weird symptoms which were actually quite serious…all due to stress. Now I just break out in hives, and hold my breath.
One of you does it when relaxed. I think i may perhaps just be comforting myself. This is turning me into a very grumpy pregnant lady with a couple months left to go and every time I try to talk about it with him he gets defensive and hurt- god forbid I wake him up for a few seconds of peace!
He also talks in his sleep. Please send help or a shovel. Please help! Be gets so mean in his sleep when I tell him he is sleep groaning.
I have a 5 Year old and a full time, demanding job and I am always exhausted because my husband never lets me sleep. We do not have a big enough house for me to establish a second bedroom. We have been married 12 years and I am seriously considering ending this. Yes, it sounds extreme but this has sleep deprivation is torture and I want to enjoy my life before the lack of sleep kills me.
I did a sleep study and everything came back normal. I have the exactly same issue. Not an issue for me but for other that sleep in the same room as me.
I hav had islt since I was little, now Im 25 and still have it. Im hope for a solution to be found soon! Until I used a snoring app recently to record myself, I had no idea how disruptive it was.
I was mortified — even moreso when I found no real successful fix for it. That is, until last week when I purchased a weighted blanket as a splurge item for myself — something for comfort, reduce anxiety, improve sleep…. Hope this helps. I added a post earlier but also wanted to add on top of. When I would wake in the am before Id.
Doctors cant give me answers and I dont know whats going on internally. I have been diagnosed with Mild OSA but also developed symptoms that causes groaning, grunting and a moaning sound during sleep. It has made my life miserable because I did have the overnight take home sleep study and do have a CPAP but was told that the machine only picks up certain vibratory sounds.
The recordings on the machine I am told looked really good and my numbers are low however I have recorded myself with the CPAP on and I still hear the snoring and loud sounds What makes it worse is I live in an apartment complex and I can hear pounding on my wall or floor and I feel bad because but also want it to stop, Im. I no longer sleep in my bedroom where the neighbors would pound my wall.
Sometimes the sounds are moaning which could be mis interpreted or assumed as something else which is not the case at all. Its embarassing to say the least and disruptive to say the least.
Now Im not on the machine some nights as Im trying not to disturb anyone when the machine is on but when its not its louder so damned if I do and damned if I dont. Cant break a lease without penalties and cant find a solution. I withheld my rent til I got answers and resolution on the pounding and I get slapped with a late fee and a 3 day pay or vacate notice which was cruel as I always was on time and they took my request as not a problem cause no ones admitting what they are doing.
I am so miserable in the complex I am in but also miserable in not finding a solution and the CPAP not being effective which makes life miserable. I rent a 2 bedroom apartment and have resorted to sleeping on the floor in my living room and still dealing with pounding and slamming and dragging chairs and making life hell but the landlord thinking its not a problem. I work from home and before I raised the issue even talking on the phone and typing they would mimic keyboard sounds by tapping or if on a call tapping the vent in the room for.
Basically they are doing it but the resident manager doesnt do a damn thing so basically they want their money but make basic living and utter nightmare. Im already watching tv with wireless headsets and this is just insane but no matter what I do this sleep disorder is affecting normalcy.
