Several sleep complaints and disturbances have been documented in psychiatric disorders. These modifications of sleep in anxiety disorders, alcoholism, schizophrenia, dementia and eating disorders are reviewed and discussed. At the present time, there is no evidence for any specific sleep pattern in non-affective psychiatric disorders. The co-morbidity of sleep disorders like sleep apnoea, periodic leg movements and parasomnia in psychiatric illness is not very well known at the present time.
