Shouting and mourning in sleep
Hi,
My father shouts ( peculiar voice as if like he is running away or sholding someone but is completly garbled and words that he speaks are not clear),it does not happens every night but sometimes.
We have noticied this from a very long time now ,might be more than 15 yrs .
We consulted doctor and he gave meloset and clonotril and said this issue is called somniliquy .
But situation remains same after taking the medicines as well.
To conclude: I would also like to highlight that my father panicks a lot ( its part of his nature) ,even for small task he will ask us and will take tension .calling people mutiple times for same work again and again and always have some stupid reason ) for tension
