Dreams have been described as dress rehearsals for real life, opportunities to gratify wishes, and a form of nocturnal therapy. A new theory aims to make sense of it all.

Sleep problem
Hi, I have been to a sleep therapy to see if they could help my issue, which is not staying in deep sleep for long but jumping from stage to stage, which wakes me up quite a lot and then I'm awake everyday from 4 or 5am no matter what time I go to bed, I find myself tired all day and never feel refreshed from a nights sleep, the sleep dr. Tried a few different meds, but nothing to knock me out as I'm still young ish 35 now, and having tried everything he was at the end of suggestions as what to do. I cope with it, but it's been years since I felt refreshed and was an amazing feeling, it would be great to have that again. Do you have any ideas? Thanks
