Anyone else sleepwalk or know someone who does? I've been doing it latly and it really starting to scare me. I talked to my mom about it she says I used to do it a lot when I was kid. She thinks its from lack of sleep and working too many hours. To be honest my sleeping habits have gone astray for no reason.
I went from being lucky if I could stay up till 5:30am to now I'm lucky if I get in bed by 9am. I work second shift 3pm to 11pm. I on average put in 56 hrs a week up to 72 hrs.
So not only am I getting less sleep when I do sleep I walk around and move things and stand in place. The other night I apparentlly got out of bed stood in the hallway for a couple mins my wife was laying on the couch watching tv. She sat up asked me what I was doing. I began to. Say I need to wash my hands and use the rest room. Then I started talking and not making sense. She said I got real aggervated and stomped off to the restroom . At which point I used the restroom and went back to bed. I don't remember doing any of this.
This is the first time she has seen me do this, but I'm begaining to wonder how many times I have and she wasn't up to see it. I know this is the second time I can prove I've done this the first time I got up and moved one of my cars of the bedroom dresser sat it on the floor in the hallway then went in the restroom and tried to get a drink from a roll of toilet paper. I saw me doing all this but to me it seems like a dream, but when I woke up the next morning I found the car in the hallway infront of the closet and a soaked roll of toilet paper on the sink. I've also squeezed my wife in the middle of the night by giving her a big bear hug, and. I pulled her hair by petting her on the back of the head. I woke up both times to her screaming at me.
Should I be worried about this or is this ok to sleep walk? I'm scared as to how many things I've done and didn't know about it. I'm also afraid I'm going to hurt my self and or my wife and be completely unaware of what's going on.
I've been trying to go to bed early but my body won't let me I end up getting up again and watching tv or playing on the internet till I finally dose off around sunrise.
Not getting sleep is also taking a toll on me at work usually about half way through the day I end up "hitting a wall" and I find myself dozing off on my lift while it's moving. So far I've been catching myself before any thing bad happens but it's only a mater of time. I have found that a quick trip to the break room to get a cup of coffee will wake me right up. But by the time I get home I feel like I haven't sleep in a week. But no matter what i can't go to sleep.
I'm worried.
