Have you experienced any funny/scary sleepwalking incidents?
As above.
I was reading through reddit about this topic and found a funny one: "My husband isn't a sleepwalker normally, but we'd been married just a few months when he went cold turkey off some heavy pain medication after a surgery and it caused him to sleepwalk that night. I heard metallic rattling sounds coming from the bedroom, so I went in to see what was going on. It was pitch black and I realized shortly that he was actually in the master bathroom. But, again, pitch black: the light was off. I knocked on the door to ask if he was okay. After some hesitation he replied, "Yeah." I asked if I could come in, since I was concerned he wasn't okay, having recently had surgery. He agreed, so I opened the door and turned on the light to a very curious scene. The shower curtain had been completely ripped down, breaking the rings. He'd also started taking apart the window blind from the top. I surveyed the damage incredulously (remember, we'd only been married a few months, so I was starting to wonder what kind of psycho I'd married) and asked, "What are you doing?" He told me he needed this stuff. I asked for what, and he replied, "Because this is what Ninja Turtles are made from." And that was when I realized he was sleepwalking." As for myself personally, I've never been told that I sleepwalked but my parents told me that when I was young, I would have entire conversations and laugh while asleep. Other than that, the only other incident that I've experienced was one time when my sister walked in on me while I was watching tv, her eyes were shut but she was mumbling something about wanting pizza. I then walked her back to her bed, and she was stiff as a rock the whole time. Thankfully I myself have never witnessed or experienced things like sleepwalk driving and even killing others. The thought of people performing such complex actions whilst asleep is both fascinating and terrifying. |
Last month I was apparently sleepwalking in the middle of the night. I slipped/tripped and smacked by head on either my dresser or my night stand. I cut my eyebrow pretty bad. It was like 2:00 in the morning. I thought about waiting for urgent care to open, rather than going to the hospital. But I ended up going to the hospital in the early morning hours, around 5:00 or so. The doctor opted not to do stitches. It was a pretty bad cut though.

Fortunately, no, I don't think I've ever been a sleepwalker. Hard enough to manage to go get a drink or use the bathroom in the middle of the night if only somewhat awake, I'm not sure I could manage being up and about if still asleep. Hard enough just to get out of bed in the morning.
Though the accounts of people's partners or family members doing crazy stuff and especially things said by sleep talkers is some of the best damn stuff online. :tlol: |
