Some children go through sleepwalking phases and outgrow them. This has been compared with phases of bedwetting and other growth phases related to fear. I have known older people to relay stories about snoring. Some also attribute this partly to being overweight or discovering some psychological issue. Everyone is different and can evolve to pinpoint reasons for their own state of mind.

I agree with you Liara, If one can pinpoint his state of overall health, he/she will be in a good position to judge his behaviors over a period of time and can best take care of his health.

Thank you for your visit and the comment.

I wish my Dad would read up on snoring. Every night if I come home past 9, which on most nights I do, my Dad is passed out on the couch snoring so loud you would think he is near death.
