Default Sleepwalking

Has anyone sleepwalked?

I have done it 3 times. Once when I was 15 and got so incredibly drunk that I put my pjs on inside out, got up at 1am and went into my parents room and whacked the TV areal to the ground while talking in gibberish.

The second time I was about 23-24 and apparently got up and asked one of my flatmate and her friends to keep the noise down. The next day she mentioned it to me and I had absolutely no recollection of it. When we fell out as friends she told my other flatmate that I was a lier and she didn't believe the possibility that I was sleepwalking.

The third time was last week. I had taken my sleep medication (which I find out afterwards that it's side effects is sleepwalking) and a glass of whiskey and soda as I thought it shouldn't be that bad mixing them. I apparently got up, sat out the front of the house smoking when my bf came home. He tried talking to me but again I was talking in gibberish and then I fell over inside. Him and my flatmate had to pick me up and take me to bed. While in the bed I was moving around really excessively and moaning/making strange noises and it took an hour before I actually went to sleep (completely asleep I mean).

Now I will be very careful to not mix medication with alcohol ever again because of this and also from reading online that people have gotten into cars and driven, went for walks in the dark and cooked food in the kitchen.

I haven't been sleepwalking since I was very young (my mother told me when I was older that she thought I was possessed) but my sweetie is a champ at all sorts of somnambular shenanigans.

So Ki sleepwalks? I used to sleep talk a lot as a kid/teenager which I often woke up talking to someone who was obviously asleep or no one was there.

That would be so scary!

I used to sleepwalk all the time as a child, my parents even admitted that I used to scare the **** out of them, resembling some sort of creepy, possessed little girl as I wandered around the house

But I don't anymore and haven't sleepwalked for years! I do occasionally talk though.

i dont but ive seen some creepy and funny moments


see i worked in a group home for boys for awhile and worked the overnight shift occasionally. basically i just played computer games for 8 hours while kids slept. basically all the kids took evening meds. one kid in particular would talk, yell, and sometimes walk in his sleep. i remember the first time i worked overnight i heard him yell so i went down the hall to his room and he was sitting on his bottom bunk bed with his feet on the ground just mumbling. then got up and walked to the corner of the room and started yelling about rats. scared the hell out of me, it was creepy

He gets out of bed once in a while, or sits up flailing his arms in some sort of silent terror. He talks a lot in his sleep, laughs, tells jokes, argues with himself. He's a riot, but I've had many sleepless nights just trying to keep him in bed!

I wonder why people walk/talk in their sleep, what causes it, if it's hereditary, and how it can be treated. I don't take any sedatives or anything for the fear that I might not be able to save him if he decides to walk out the door in his sleep.

Oh wow that's scary! I would be freaked out if my little girl did that, I would probably think she's possessed or something.

Aww you guys are so sweet. I definitely think it's great that you're there for him. It cracks me up that he argues with himself, that's brilliant.

Lol Rezz that is funny stuff!

Has anyone got into a conversation with someone that was sleep talking? How long did you realize that they were responding with nonsense?

This happened to me the other night and it took me about a good five mins to realize that we were talking about two different things entirely. She was talking so much in her sleep.
