Sleep Walking

Well this is how my sister said what happen

Well my sister said that i walk out of my room and said something than she said "what" and then i said "who took it and she said "took what" and i said something esle and than she ask me again and then i get mad and by her i went back into my room and lay back down.

I finally confirmed that i sleepwalk now , i know i was cause i could fell asleep in my bed and end up on my coach or on a floor sometime.

I hate it but i can't do nothing about it plus it cool also cause i can end up and a random place which it somewhat cool.

Anyone esle sleepwalk?

lol...i used to, but i don't anymore.

One time, i got outta bed and went into my sister's room, told her the house was on fire and we were locked inside. She was like "what are you talkin about, where?", and i told her "i dunno, i'm going back to bed" then i went back to sleep.

That's how she said it happened....yeah i felt pretty stupid the next day >_>

As a kid, I sleepwalked a few times. Once I woke up on the floor of my parent's bedroom, and on another occasion I woke up sitting on the toilet seat. I don't sleepwalk anymore (or I hope not :shock: ) but I know my brother sleep-talks a lot (quite funny actually... if you happen to be awake when he starts talking in his sleep), and my little sister suffers from night terrors from time to time.

I used to sleepwalk when i was 15-16-17. Used to go and drink water, tear papers in my room, and i used to talk in my dream. Sister told me that usually I speak very fast, or i argue with "someone", or I talk on some "language" that she doesn't understand me. Once i ever sang.
I am not sleep walking anymore, but i am not sure about talking, cause now i am alone in my room so there is noone to tell me :)

Ya, I sleepwalk still, I sleep talk too, I have some really funny stories that I heard from my family, one time my mom said she woke up in the middle of the night and went into the kitchen and when she turned on the lights there I was drinking milk and eating cookies, she thought I was awake so she asked me what I was doing and I just ignored her and kept on doing what I was doing, then she saw that my eyes were barely open and they were rolled back into my head, so she know I was still asleep, some other times, like when I was little, I woke up inside our bathroom laundry hamper, pretty wierd, other times I would go outside and wake up on a neighbors lawn, I dont do very much sleep walking anymore that I know of because I have my own room and I lock myself in every night, but from what my parents tell me (and my friends when I crash at their house) is that I sleep talk every night, most of the time its nonsense, but I guess one time I sang an entire stevie wonder song, and another time they said I had an entire conversation about a refridgerator, pretty cool stuff I think

:banana:

I only know of one time. I was I thik 8 or 9. I was with my family on vacation and my mom said in the middle of the night I got up and tried to leave the hotel room but couldn't get the door to open. I said something about swimming, lol! I don't remember any of that.

little odd fact about sleep walking...its a good way to dodge the military. I think i remember something about someone getting kicked out because of it while I was in.

Never happened to me. I think it's caused by a malfunctioning of sleep paralysis (SP), which is a natural mechanism that is enforced by the body to avoid people from 'acting out' their dreams. For the people with chronic sleepwalking problems, I assume they are born without SP abilities.

I had been sleep-walking my whole life until I started taking Melatonin, that stuff just knocks me out.

I remember when I was about 15 or 16 I woke up one night in the driver's seat of my parents van with the keys in the ignition...Scary.

I used to sleepwalk when I was little. I'd fall asleep on the couch, and when my parents asked me if I was asleep, I'd get up and walk myself to bed while I was still asleep.

One time I recited a butter commercial in my sleep too. It was one of those old "Not butter, better!" things, you know? One of these days I'm going to put a recorder in my room so I can see if I still talk or not.

OK im 12 years old and yesterday i was running down stairs and running into a wall while i am sleeping. the next day i was at a friends for a sleepover i got up, walked around the room, and went to sleep again. my friend saw me, and so did my mother. is this normal?

Used to sleepwalk when i was younger my parents told me I was turning on all the lights in the house, and I used to wake up in other places.

One time when I stayed at my grandma she told me in the morning I was yelling swear words while I was a sleep.

Not really. Sleepwalkings much more interesting than that. Apparently it happens in NREM. Its an "arousal disorder" meaning you start to wake up but get stuck in this odd state. They're not like normal dreams, because no-one remembers them, and you can't be woken up until they've run their course. I bet you can't become lucid either :-).

Some people don't have proper SP, but they don't sleepwalk exactly, they end up falling out of bed or hitting the wall or something, and wake up straight away. (google REM RBD). Fortunately there's a drug for it so they can go to sleep without worrying about waking up black and blue on the floor.

I sleepwalk occasionally. I have been known for waking up in places I did not go to sleep. Haha. One time I was screaming, kicking against the wall next to my bed as if i was trapped. My brother woke me up by turning the light on. Yeah, he was in the same room. Yeah, he was pissed. Yeah.....not the best memory

Wow I didn't think that many people here Sleep Walked thats really interesting and some of you have some interesting stories as well needless to say I have never experienced Sleep Walking or Sleep Talking to my knowledge.

Once I woke up standing in the middle of my kitchen in the middle of the night. That was scary, and the only time I've ever sleep-walked (that I'm aware of).

Ha Ha that reminds me of a few years ago, i can remember waking up on the toilet a few times and just thinking what the hell am i doing here? it is so hillarious. once when i did it, my mum woke up and came into the bathroom and saw me just sitting there on the toilet fast asleep and she had to wake me up so she could use the toilet. we laughed about it for days it was so funny.

wouldnt sleep walking be really dangerouse?

Well I've just been away on a school trip overseas, and we stayed at a youth hostel with my friends and I in a group of 8. We had two sleepwalking type incidents (not involving me)
I woke up in the middle of the night and saw my friend sitting up in her bed. I asked her if she was awake. All she did was rock back and forth and was muttering really loudly! It was so funny.
A few days later a different girl had fallen asleep before any of us and started yelling "I MUST GO DOWN. HELP. I MUST GO." really loudly! It was hilarious.

But yeah, sleepwalking can be dangerous. The girl who was muttering in her sleep said once she woke up in her garden?!?!

my friends was at camp once and she sleepwalked out of her cabin, across the driveway, and to the counsolers cabin, then she woke up and ran back to her cabin!

I know sleepwalking is dangerous, but I laughed out loud at all of those stories!
I have never sleepwalked, but my brother has. Once, my mom was sleeping on the couch, and she woke up to a strange noise. When she looked, my brother was trying to get out the front door, but he couldn't get it opened. She ran over to him and was like, "What the heck are you doing???" She took him back to bed. He hasn't done it since.
I wish I could sleepwalk. (As long as I don't hurt myself.) I think it would be cool/hilarious to hear about all the things I did while I was asleep. LOL
