Well you may feel depressed. If you ever dream then you do indeed enter REM sleep.

It could be that you have sleep apnea, which is a sleeping disorder in which your airway (consist of the mouth, the nose, throat & windpipe) is obstructed. The obstruction can happened in different places e.g. your throat or nostril. What happens is your breathing will stop temporarily and then start again. The lack of oxygen will signal your body to wake up so that you continue to breathe. This makes it difficult for you to go into deep sleep or REM sleep especially if your case is severe.

If you are often sleepy at work/during the day, feel tired & people complained that you snore (most of the time, but not necessarily always), seek out advice from a doctor.

There's a painless sleep test - where you may need to overnight at the clinic to determine how severe your case is. Do not take this lightly as having severe sleep apnea can cause many problems.

What is REM rebound?

When a person has been deprived of REM sleep for long enough they will not cycle through sleep patterns as a well rested person would. These REM deprived patients will enter REM sleep much more rapidly and will spend more time in REM sleep over the course of the night as their body attempts to "catch up" for the lost REM. This expedited process of entering REM is called REM rebound.

Name of sleep disorder for not entering REM sleep?

In sleep apnea people enter REM sleep just fine. The problem is that when the muscles relax in the first part of REM sleep the airway collapses and they stop breathing. This interrupts the sleep cycle and they get poor sleep amongst other problems. Not entering REM sleep causes what is known as "REM sleep behavior disorder". They do not have the normal paralysis that accompanies the dream stages of REM sleep so they may act out dreams. Sleepwalking is one example. For more information see the link below.

Is rem sleep deep?

3/13/2012 jhh: REM sleep is NOT deep sleep. In fact, it is the lightest stage of sleep. In order from awake to deep sleep: AWAKE, REM, LIGHT, DEEP. Deep sleep and REM sleep are the most important stages though. Light sleep doesn't do much for you. Deep replenishes your body, while REM replenishes your mind. Older answer (not accurate): Yes. It is the deeper form of sleep that we experience during our sleep cycle, rem sleep is where dreaming occurs But not the deepest sleep, which would be delta. That's where, unless your a mother and hear your baby cry, you are oblivious to your environment.
