If a child is constantly sees nightmares in his sleep, that fact may indicate the development of his Mental Disorders . Scientists from the UK claim that parents should be sure to pay attention to this point.

Scary dreams periodically see many children. But the excitement should cause only regular repetition of nightmares, experts say. To prove this theory allowed the observation of a long nearly 7000 children. Scientists have conducted this observation is the time before the participants of the experiment turned 12 years old. The parents of these children regularly told researchers the presence of sleep problems and their features. Later it was performed diagnostics, allowing to define mental disorder and some symptoms - delirium . hallucinations   and etc.

It was found that in 37% of children suffer from symptoms of nightmares for several years. Almost every tenth child has nightmares that usually bother children aged 3 to 7 years.

Those children who have seen nightmares at the age of twelve, had mental health problems in 3, 5 times more often. If a teenager is constantly bothered by nightmares, the risk of development of such pathologies is doubled.

According to scientists, this phenomenon can be explained using two theories. Firstly, it should be noted that children who are bullied or inflict other moral injury suffered and psychoses And sleep disorders. Secondly, such a relationship may be explained by the peculiarities of the organization of brain activity in young children. The baby's brain is difficult to distinguish between sleep and waking, real and what is not real. Doctors say that the treatment of sleep disorders in the child does not get rid of the mental disorders.

Recently, another study conducted by psychologists, who testified that dreams can influence human behavior. Moreover, due to the effect on the body of some dreams can occur in the organism and change of a physiological nature. Researchers from the United States observed the 1000 volunteers of both sexes. In the experiment participants were asked daily about dreams and about how dreams influence their behavior. It turned out that there is still a lot of people believe that dreams have a hidden secret meaning. Therefore, if the night was disturbing dream, then during the day the person is trying to prevent the onset of trouble, as it believes the dream kind of warning.
