Sleep Walking

[Nsane2Bme]

Is anyone here a "sleep walker" or have experience with this regarding one of their kids? (and "sleep walking" over to the hawt neighbor's house while the S.O. is away doesn't count! )

It seems like I sleepwalk through most of my life sometimes.

When I was younger (8-10 or so) I was a serious sleepwalker.

One night I woke up at the bottom of a full flight of stairs. I had carpet burns all over my face.

Maybe I should point out that when I went to bed that night, I was in my room at the top of that full flight of stairs, just to be clear.

It's probably an act.

I would fake anything to get away from you too.

It's my son, I don't know if he is sleep walking or just lazy. I have caught him once, and he was sleep walking - if he wasn't, he's going to make a might fine damn actor one day!

My brother was a sleepwalker. One time when we were kids, my mom was up late folding laundry. My brother, sleepwalking, came into the living room, put a pair of underwear on his head and went outside.

In more sobering story, when I was in the hospital after my accident, I was in the same therapy group with a person who broke his neck sleepwalking. He was dreaming he was diving into a pool when in reality he walked to the top of a staircase and jumped.

Funny.

I'm glad you have a sense of humor.

I thought you were going to bite my head off, after last week.

Yes, I have a GREAT sense of humor, and I know what/who to ignore and what/who NOT to ignore. I’m also going to stick up for myself and tell someone to “fuck off” if it is needed.

Last week - it was needed.

I only rip heads off when they deserve to be ripped off.

FWIW - I see your last post in this thread as a truce, which is fine with me. Whether it really is or not, that’s up to you and I’ll guess I’ll find out as time goes by.

My dad was a sleepwalker. One night he walked into my grandparents room thinking he was in the bathroom. He took a leak all over my grandpa.

It's not anything near as dangerous as that!

I think it's a sleep walking thing more than anything. He used to wet the bed. Now he doesn't wet the bed anymore, just pisses all over my laundry room instead. I caught him one time, and I really think he was asleep and didn't know he did it. He doesn't do it all the time, but I can tell when he does do it. :(

I didn't think of talking to his Pediatrician about it though - I'll do that the next time he's there. Thanks!
