There is a vicious cycle between both. Lack of sleep increases the frequency of seizure activities and increased seizure attacks causes patient to become sleep deprived. National sleep foundation has tried to figure out the relationship between sleep disorders and seizure attacks. Let’s see what they have to say on this.

Seizure’s Correlation With Sleep Disorders

Seizures follow the sleep wake cycle.  Seizures occur in some people exclusively during the sleep. When seizure occur during the sleep; which particularly happen with focal epilepsy of childhood, confuses with sleep disorders like insomnia. Sleep disorders and insomnia patients are often unaware of their seizures attacks. They usually develop a state of dilemma and keeps on fighting with daytime fatigue without knowing the actually underlying condition.

Sleep disorders are closely related with different abnormalities that can occur in your body. Can Lack Of Sleep Cause Seizures And Lethargic Symptoms Epilepsy & Sleep DisordersThe sleep mechanism in our body can be said to be very sensitive. Any changes in our body temperature, travelling to different time zones, seizure and other disease can have a deep impact on our circadian rhythm.

Lethargic and restlessness are also seen as a major contributor to various sleeping issues. This is because of the fact that lethargy mainly contributes to a lot of inflexibility in our body and develops chronic fatigue.
