Abstract:Purpose of Review
Intrusive memories are common in the aftermath of trauma, and these can develop into a pervasive, distressing symptom of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Sleep disturbances have been shown to contribute to later development and maintenance of overall PTSD symptoms, including intrusive memories of trauma. This paper summarises recent research examining the role of sleep in the development of trauma-related intrusive memories.
