These arousals are often noticed if a person is crying or kicking around in bed. Usually the person appears awake, confused, and upset. They tend to push help away. An episode like this can range from a few seconds to a half an hour. When ended the person is usually calm, then wakes concisely, and then returns to sleeping. Sleepwalking is another common parasomnia. This is normally seen in older children. This is when a person gets up and walks around. They could just walk around the room, or could even walk around the whole yard. A sleepwalker could either return to bed, or wake up in a totally different part of the house. Sleepwalkers can carry on conversations, (that which may be difficult to understand) or even rearrange furniture. Nobody knows why, but usually sleepwalkers don't inquire any injuries. Sleep-related eating is another type of parasomnia, however very rare. People, who have this, usually eat while they are sleeping, but are unaware of it. It happens in both sexes, but is most common in females.
Sleep terrors are also another kind of parasomnia. It is a very extreme and dramatic form of an arousal disorder. A sleep terror can be very distressing to witness. At first the person starts to scream and/or shout. This person could also be sweating, have dilated pupils,
