According to scientists, the dream - the best medicine.Indeed, the kingdom of Morpheus saves people from a lot of stress, disease, or simply fatigue.It is believed that a person of normal sleep duration is 5-7 hours.But sometimes the line between normal sleep and sleep caused by stress, is too thin.We are talking about lethargy (Gr. Lethargia, from lethe - forgetfulness and argia - inaction), a painful condition similar to sleep and is characterized by immobility, lack of response to external stimulation and the absence of external signs of life.
fall into lethargy people are always afraid, because there was a danger of being buried alive.For example, the famous Italian poet Francesco Petrarca, who lived in the XIV century, at the age of 40 years was seriously ill.Once he lost consciousness, he was considered dead and buried going.Fortunately, the law at the time forbade the burying of the dead before the day after the death.Waking up is almost at his grave, Petrarca said he feels great.After that, he lived another 30 years.
In 1838, in one of the English villages incredible event occurred.During the funeral, when the grave coffins lowered and began to dig in, there came some obscure sound.While the cemetery frightened workers came to their senses, dug the coffin and opened it, it was too late: under the hood, they saw frozen in terror and despair face.A shroud torn and bruised hands showed that it is too late ...

well known writer Nikolai Gogol fear of being buried alive.The final mental breakdown occurred the writer after the woman died, he is infinitely loved - Catherine Khomyakov, the wife of his friend.Her death shocked Gogol.Soon he burned the manuscript of the second part of "Dead Souls" and took to his bed.Doctors advised him to lie down, but the body of the writer defended too well: he fell into a deep sleep salvation, which at the time was taken for death.In 1931, the Bolsheviks decided to plan improvement of Moscow to destroy the cemetery Danilov Monastery, which was buried Gogol.However, during the exhumation of the present horror we discovered that the skull of the great writer turned to one side, and the matter over in his grave torn ...

lethargy medical reasons are not yet known.It is also impossible to predict when it's revival.Lethargy can last from several hours to decades.Medicine describes cases of confluence of people in a dream because of intoxication, a large blood loss, hysterical seizures, fainting.Interestingly, when the threat to life (the bombing during the war) slept lethargy woke up could go, and after shelling fell asleep again.The mechanism of aging in the sleeping much slowed.Over 20 years of sleep apparently they do not change, but then waking make up for the biological age of 2-3 years, becoming in the eyes of the elderly.Waking up, many claimed that they had heard everything that was going around, but did not have the strength to even lift a finger.
Nazir Rustemov from Kazakhstan, while 4-year-old child first "fell into a state similar to the nonsense, and then fell asleep lethargy."Doctors Regional Hospital find her dead, and soon the parents of the girl buried alive.What saved her is that according to Muslim custom, the body of the deceased is not buried in the ground, and wrapped in a shroud and buried in-house repository.Nazir overslept and woke up 16 years, when she was about to turn 20. According to the story itself Rustemova, "on the night after the funeral of her father and grandfather in a dream heard a voice that told them that she was alive," which forced them to pay attention to the "corpse "- they found faint signs of life.
case the longest officially registered lethargy, entered in the Guinness Book of Records, occurred in 1954 with Hope Artemovna Swan (born in 1920 in the village of Mogilev Dnipropetrovsk region) due to a strong argument with her husband.As a result, the resulting stress Swan asleep for 20 years and again recovered only in 1974.Doctors have recognized her perfectly healthy.
There is another record for some reason did not get into the Guinness World Records.Augustine Leggard after stress caused by childbirth, and fell asleep ... no longer respond to injections and strokes.But very slowly she opened her mouth when she was fed.It has been 22 years old, but sleeping Augustine remained as youthful.But the woman started, and said: "Frederic is probably already too late, the baby is hungry, feed him, I want!" But instead of a newborn baby, she saw 22-year-old young woman, like two peas similar to her ... very soon, however,took its time: awakened the woman began to age rapidly in a year it has turned into an old woman died after 5 years.
are cases when lethargy occurs intermittently.An English priest slept six days a week, and on Sunday, get up to eat and serve a public prayer.Typically, mild cases of lethargy there is stillness, relaxation of muscles, even breathing, but in severe cases, rare, there is a picture really supposed death: skin cold and pale, the pupils do not react, breathing and pulse are difficult to detect, strong pain stimuli do not cause reactionsreflexes are absent.
When there is suspicion of a lethargic sleep, doctors recommend to bring a mirror to the mouth of the deceased.If any symptoms of life must fogged mirror.The best guarantee against lethargy are the quiet life and the absence of stress.
