I notice that I started this thread some time ago, and I wonder whether any more members of this forum who have PD can offer any more information. Was your PD preceded by violent/aggressive/active dreaming where you would kick, fight, punch, throw yourself out of bed, or go through the motions of your dreams.
e.g. my own husband was dreaming that he was escaping from something/somebody terrible, but had to jump a high chasm to get away. He actually threw himself right out of the bed, and luckily missed serious injury by mere centimetres as he landed heavily so close to the glass double doors and an angled bedside table. As it was, he pulled down the beside lamp and everything else that was on the table.
Conversely, and there any other members apart from Subzeromambo and Rickynmitsuko who have had this disorder?
I forgot to add that he has now been diagnosed with REM BD, and is currently taking Clonozepam for it nightly. This helped enormously for about 8 months, but I am noticing that either the dose needs to be upped, or that the disorder is becoming more pronounced. I have also noticed that my husbands hands tremble when holding things, such as a cup, or a plate.
