Somniphobia

Somniphobia is defined as "a persistent, abnormal, and unwarranted fear of sleep", and this condition causes thousands of people major distress every year. There are many reasons why people may suffer from somniphobia, as with any fear: they may have had repeated bad experiences with nightmares/night terrors as a child. Known by many names—somniphobia and fear of sleep being the most common—the problem often significantly impacts quality of life. It can cause panic attacks, and symptoms include shortness of breath, nausea, sweating, irregular heartbeat and a sense of impending doom/dread.

Somniosexual

Little is known of this condition and there are barely an reports of it. Somniosexuality is when people are only attracted to or can love people in there dreams. This sexuality is rare and underground. Due to the rarity of it, not much is known about it.

"Hey Bill, you hear about Lisa? She's a somniosexual"
"No way! No wonder why she has been turning down my advances!"

somnophiliac

a somnophiliac (person with somnophilia) is a person who had a fetish for touching/caressing a person sexually when they are asleep or unconsious. This can also include sleep rape or oral sex which is understandable.

I think the main reason for this fetish is cause of the cute vunerablity of the sleeping person.

I myself am a somnophiliac. I have this odd overpowering fantasy involving me in a relationship with Anton Yelchin and i ... touch him amorously when hes sleeping.

code somnia

Being unable to fall asleep at night because you constantly feel the strong need to stay up and write computer code - even when you are exhausted.

I was falling asleep in the morning meeting because my code somnia kept me up all night working on my website...
