Hi,

I'm a 25 year old male who hits my partner while i'm asleep, it is getting very bad now as it's nearly breaking up our 4 and 1/2 relationship up. I don't even know that i'm doing it. How can i stop this from happening and is this a common sleep disorder.

Hitting partner while asleep
I was just told by my husband that I hit him while I sleep. It is getting to be more frequent. I am concerned and don't know where to turn. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!

Chris,
I was doing the same thing - I found out it was because of a medication I was taking for depression. If you are on any meds for anything, check them out for side effects - I searched on the internet & found the problem, then talked to my Doctor. He switched the med immediately.

alicet53,

i have recently started hitting my husband in his sleep as well. I am also on antidepressants. I have looked them up and can't find anything saying that is a side effect. if it is not too much to ask what kind of medicine are you taking to make you do that so i can change mine?
