Anyone a sufferer of this?
I have all my life, and keep doing stranger and stranger things in my sleep..

I've tried to kill the missus a few times in my sleep (once tried throwing a 19" CRT at her, luckily it was plugged in)

I've climbed up 5ft above the floor on a wall of shelves

I've checked emails in my sleep, on my phone. I never do that.

I've moved my bed stuff into the living room and made a bed.

I've made a sandwich

Often sing away happily



Anyone else remotely as messed up as me?
I went to the doc, he said in medical school they were told to ignore it as it wasn't a real condition.
I live 30m from the sea, i'm scared i'll wake up swimming one day!
 
I had a friend who between the ages of 13-16 used to wake up, walk around his house and then randomly pee in someone's bedroom.

My girlfriend is also a random sleep talker too. Really weird when she starts saying stuff like "Watch out! your putting your hand in sick, its on the shelf right there!"
 
ah, don't say that!
but by looking, i have no symptoms.
stop scaring me.

and at certain sleep levels, you can act as awake as normal... so the heavy lifting thing is normal.

There is actually a condition with people who have extreme sleep conditions, you might want to check out the TV show "Sleep Clinic" i think it was called.

They had a guy on there who used to wake up trying to kill things in his sleep and climb out of a window.
 
I had the habit of when I was younger (probably 10ish) I would get up and wee in the bin :eek:
 
my gf sleep talks , she has very random talks but ushally shes either buying something i.e. shoes or returning something back to a shop... freaks me out but is dam funny sometimes.
 
No sleep walking but I do talk a little.

I heard that there is a 30min phase when you fall asleep before you start dreaming, but unfortunately I seem to start dreaing as my eyes close, so when chatting away to *** mrs she has heard some funny things like:

'Ye ye il call you after work tomo..........kamikazee boats'

'ye ye your boss seems............ smelly hooker'

Weird stuff, but I love being able to sleep like a log :D
 
it's called parasomnias, and after researching, looks like it happens to a sizable population.. and there are worse cases than me (sleep sex, sleep murder)
 
yeah i once caught end of a program about sleep walkers apparently you mind actually works harder when you asleep than when you awake . there was this one women who put washing on and made sandwichs when she was asleep.
 
Never done it myself, but I remember during basic training one of the recruits in our entry got up one night walked down 3 flights of stairs, went into the washing room, turned on a cold water tap and sat in the sink :p
 
wordy was he kicked out for sleep walking i could imagine its not a very good trait to have in the forces unless he's super human i mean your all dozing away he sleep walks into enemy camp kills everyone then comes back and gets into bed job done.
 
Gum shield.

No way!

My teeth are indestructable, I've not got one filling or anything. I had braces in my teens too and I haven't heard anyone say "you were grinding your teeth last night" since I had them, so maybe I dont do it anymore..

Not wearing a shield to bed though, I'd be scared of choking on it.
 
When I was younger I tried to get out the front door thinking I was going to the loo, luckily my mum stopped me both times. I've also woke up in the bath a few times, must've thought I was going back to my bed!

I occasionally still sleep talk. I've gotten in to arguments with my bf then not remember it the next day and wonder why he's in a huff with me!
 
By your own admission you tried to kill your other half with a CRT.

I suppose it would have been worse if you tried to *whistle* her afterwards.


LOL

You owe me a new keyboard, I just spat coffee all over mine :D :D
