Sleep Walking
Slightly less exciting than this <a href="http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthread.php?s=&threadid=34823">thread</a>. Anyone have any entertaining sleep walking stories?
Staying with some friends one night I wandered into their den and attempted to pull down my pants to pee. Luckily her husband was there and caught me before my pants came down. He had to lead me all the way to the bathroom and I never remembered the event. After this I've had several more episodes. Once I dreamed I was looking for a urine specimin cup, my husband woke up to find me rummaging in my closet with stuff falling down on me. He said, "what are you doing?" and I yelled at him "I'm looking for the thingy!". Wierd. I have a friend who had taken a bath in her sleep and driven to work. Scary. P.S. I did a search on this but nothing specifically for sleep walking that I saw. |

Somnambulism is a fascinating aspect of consciousness and sleep.
I have no personal experience with it but your stories are very intriguing. Thanks. http://www.google.com/search?sourcei...q=somnambulism http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...q=sleepwalking

I have often suspected that I unknowingly do things in my sleep. Many times I will have put something in its place right before I go to bed only to find it moved when I wake up.
Weird.

My mom told me I used to walk around the house mumbling stuff when I was little. And my friends told me I sleep with my eyes half open, how the hell can that happen??

my brother used to walk in his sleep when he was a teenager, until he fell down the stairs in the house and broke his arm, never walked in his sleep since then...
I talk in my sleep - - always have - roommates in college used to tell me that I would have completely lucid conversations and if they asked me a question, I would answer it.

My sister tops all of you all. One night My family and I were on a vacation and I am awakened by my sister hitting me and screaming NO NO NO! We had to snap her out of it and she remembered nothing. She doesn't hit people anymore, but will talk nightly and occasionally walk around the house. Now that I think about it she walked in on me looking at porn....thankful she was sleepwalking... My sister is one tormented soul.

I have walked outside my house in summer as well as winter, into other houses and rearranged furniture. Luckily the neighbours knew me and my entertaining trick. Drove a car once while sleeping much to the surprise of a friend(awake) who was in total disbelief and came along just so I didn't crash. I drove a good 10 miles on a highway and upon waking up had no idea what I was doing, where I was going etc. I lived in an apartment years ago and was woken up by someone on the floor because I kept opening the elevator doors. Everytime the door opened, a bell like sound was produced. I was stark naked.
I have heard that people who sleepwalk into adulthood are either borderline genius or are neurotic. I'm not interested in the science of it. I still walk about once a week and wake up somewhere in my house but haven't gone on an out of house tour in a long time. If I ever stay with friends I insist on being on the ground floor level. I have sailed down a few staircases when asleep and that is a rude awakening.

lol some of these stories are so funny.
As far as I know, though, I don't walk or talk in my sleep. The most interesting thing I've got is when I was a teenager, I was sitting in the living room watching TV late at night and my half brother came out with a blanket and a lunchbox, went into the kitchen, opened the fridge, and then came out and started yelling at me. "No! Stop!" (not in a scared tone. More an annoyed whiny tone). And then he threw his lunchbox across the room and went back in his room and to sleep. It was weird. |

It was a really bad problem for me from ages 5-7 my parents had to start putting chain locks at the tops of the doors to keep me in the apartment we lived in at the time because they caught me going out and climbing the railings.....sleep walking gave way at age 7 and turned into excessive talking in my sleep which went away when I hit puberty.
Sometime in my later teens I started whats being talked about in the more exciting thread hehehehe
