There are so many sleep-specific words

Do you ever want to talk about your sleeping experience but find it so struggling to express exactly what you have in mind? In that case, there are many words in the English language that perfectly describe different stages, and different phenomena related to sleep that you can use. These sleep-specific words might be able to help you at some points, only if the person you're talking to also knows about them, though.

These words include: Somniphobia - describing the fear of falling asleep; Oneirophobia - describing the fear of having nightmares or dreams while sleeping. In contrast to that word is Euneirophrenia - a word that describes the peace of mind that comes from having a beautiful dream. Moreover, there is Clinomania - a word to describe the irresistible urge to stay cozy in bed all day, and Dystonia - a word to describe that feeling when you’ve just woken up and really don’t want to get out of bed, etc. There are many other words that describe sleep you might find in the English language. If you can speak more than one language, it's great to compare these words with those in other languages and see how different countries have different thoughts about this action that takes 1/3 of our life.
