Sleep disorders presenting as psychiatric disorders.
In summary, disordered sleep can present in a complex and atypical fashion in which the primary sleep-related component may not be immediately apparent. A high index of suspicion serves the clinician well in these cases. A careful and systematic evaluation of sleep often proves to be rewarding in terms of diagnostic accuracy and improved treatment outcome.
