One would assume that when you go to bed, your body goes into a comatose state for six to nine hours until you wake up the next morning. Right? Well, for my entire life (ever since I learned how to walk) – with at least one occurrence a week – I sit straight up, get out of my bed, walk around, sometimes go through drawers and move furniture (it’s amazing how strong I am when I’m sleeping!), and then go back to bed. I never leave the house, although I’ve heard stories of that happening to other people. And not only do I sleepwalk, but I’m quite the sleep-talker, too! I’ve been told that I can speak some interesting languages while sleeping . . . fingers crossed Mandarin will come easily to me?! Sleepwalking can be caused by many factors , including genetics, a chaotic sleep schedule, and alcohol consumption. According to WebMD, there

is no foolproof way to prevent sleepwalking , although you can take certain steps like getting adequate sleep, reducing stress, and avoiding stimuli before bedtime to minimize your risks. Thankfully, it’s not considered a serious disorder, and can usually be remedied with some relaxation and stress management therapies. And although startling, it is OK to wake a sleepwalker , but it’s better to just calmly guide them back to bed. In terms of sleep-talking, it can be caused by certain medications, emotional stress, a fever, a mental health disorder, or substance abuse. It is often harmless, although it may be a sign of a more serious health condition or sleep disorder. What’s your experience with either of these sleep conditions? Do you sleepwalk or sleep-talk? I sleep walk. I sleep talk. I sleep walk and sleep talk. I don’t do either.
