I agree - just get your gf to tie you up in bed every night, Regin
![]() You'll be too tired to sleepwalk ![]() Nah, seriously though - I can imagine that's pretty scary! Most people do grow out of sleepwalking, but if you notice you keep on doing it (ask your roommates to check up on it), maybe you could get your doctor to direct you to a specialist. Sleepwalking an sich is not too bad, but if you start kicking down all the walls in your house it's a different story.... ![]()

I would imagine this was a one-time thing brought about by your physical exhaustion.
Has anything like this happened before? If not, I would say the stress of the trip brought it on. I agree you should just wait to see if it happens again. Hopefully it won't. In the meantime, I would still have your gf tie you in bed - Just To Be Safe! [img]graemlins/showoff.gif[/img]

Did it as a child myself, only I remember quite a few of the instances. There's a part of the brain that cut's off your motor nerves in the base while you're in deep sleep (REM). Sometimes, for unknown reasons, this part doesn't function properly and can result in two unnerving situations.
1. Sleepwalking. People with bad sleepwalking have been known to do very dangerous things. Including trying to kill family members. 2. Waking paralysis. When you wake up, you're awake but can't move from the neck down or can only move minimally. This is quite rare as a clinical disorder. If it happens to a normal person because of being woken from a deep sleep, it usually only lasts a matter of a few seconds. I've known plenty of sleepwalkers, but only met one person with the paralysis problem. Even then, she had only experienced it a couple of times in her life.

I sleepwalk occasionally, which annoys my dear wife no end. I notice that it's when I am very tired when I went to bed. Probably interferes with REM sleep.

Only thing i can suggests is not having an open window in your room, especially when it's on the second floor or something. Otherwise it could make for a rude awakening.
Oh and tell your friends if they catch you again not to yell your name. I've heard some disturbing things when people sleepwalk and someone yells their name. Even if this isn't true, it's better to be safe then sorry.

Sorry, no help here Regin but I do have a great story. Years ago, my youngest brother Michael (I think he was 10 at the time) woke up in the middle of the night, walked downstairs and into the laundry room, opened the dryer and proceeded to urinate. He then closed the dryer walked upstairs and went back to bed. I was laughing so hard I was crying.
