Octavia's muscle movements being uninhibited during dreaming and acting out her dreams, which can cause injury, are symptoms of REM behavior disorder. Restless legs syndrome involves uncomfortable sensations in the legs that lead to an urge to move them, somnambulism refers to sleepwalking, and narcolepsy is a disorder involving excessive daytime sleepiness and sudden attacks of sleep.
