To ask for your best sleep talking/walking stories

[TiredAndaBitBored]

I very rarely talk in my sleep however apparently last night I nudged DH awake and asked him to check the little man was still in the cupboard.

I've no idea what I was dreaming but DH confirmed there was in fact, no little man in our cupboard.

Anyone else?

I was a sleepwalker well into adulthood. Aged 18 I sleepwalked naked round the house one night and into the room where my Dad and a posse of his mates were drinking and playing cards. That was quite a treat for them! Dad just walked me back to bed. He was a sleepwalker too and it used to freak my mother out when we were both up at the same time!

When she was a toddler, we found DD1 fast asleep, in the 'library' (a hallway lined with bookcases, we weren't living in a mansion), sitting reading books in the pitch black. She also used to randomly appear downstairs in the evening.

Back when we were students, I once woke now DH (then just boyfriend) to tell him it was his turn to feed the baby.

I outed myself as Bisexual to my first boyfriend. Woke up to the question "who's L and why do you love her?"

Apparently I had been talking in my sleep about my ex girlfriends. Mortifying

My best friend speaks in a foreign language in his sleep it's hilarious.

When DP ans I first got together I thought he was being romantic mumbling something so asked him to repeat what he’d said so I could know for sure.
I got his usual Greggs order!

Once when trying to get a very tried Dd25 out of bed she whispered to me that she couldn't get up because she had sneaked out at midnight to meet a friend.

Busted!!

Dd15 not 25....at 25 she can do what she likes!!

We were at my parents having a party and my DH couldn't make it so I let him sleep in bed with me. Joined him at about 2am and he sat bolt upright and said "did you know that meerkats eat scorpions?" And zonked right back out again.

A member of my family was really poorly with a fever when they were little and her Mum caught her walking into the kitchen in the middle of the night to get a knife to chop off her hands as, "they're what's making the bugs come". Dread to think what would of happened if she hadn't woke and heard her going downstairs!!

Yesterday very early in the morning when my partner left for work, he put some money on the side and told me it was there for me to grab some lunch with, and I laughed at him.

I don't even remember him leaving for work yesterday.

A few mornings ago I woke up screaming, so the upstairs neighbours must have been thinking WTF (for a chance, usually it's us thinking WTF at the noises from their flat).

I sleep eat, I take food from the fridge and bring it into bed with me then wake the next day with crumbs and stuff.

As a teen on a German exchange trip my exchange partner said I was talking German in my sleep. Can't remember what she said I said. But I've done the same in English and Welsh over the years as well.

Not that’s interesting but when DD was a newborn I would wake up DH in a panic, clutching a pillow and pushing him away thinking DD was still in the bed (she was asleep in her crib next to me!). I would never remember any of it in the morning.

My grandfather once kicked my grandma in the shin and shouted goal in his sleep. She also used to sleepwalk too and once put him in a headlock and kept yelling “I’ve got the bloody mugger!” We’re still not 100% sure they were both asleep though. 😂

This thread is hilarious because I can relate although I don't remember these my youngest brother would tell me the nxt day.

When around 11 I walked out the door across the street and into my friends house and into the spare bed until I woke the nxt morning well confused so front door was changed lol

I went into my brothers room and served him a drinks order from my pillow he paid me and sent me bk to bed I'd only started working waitressing

I went into my daddy's car started the engine and tried to drive only my brother stopped me I only passed my test

I came downstairs with blanket and pillow and sat smiling at mummy and daddy until they woke me

Numerous times walking into walls looking for bathroom

I could go on and on but usually only happens if I'm stressed about something or exhausted 😂😂

I often have night terrors. I'll sit bolt upright and see spiders all over the bed, or bats everywhere. I once thought I was stuck in a tunnel underground (like the ones you go pot holing in) was screaming for my husband to help me. He was reaching in and trying to pull me out. In reality he was holding my hands telling me it wasn't real.

I don’t often talk in my sleep - sometimes when really tired or unwell. I do remember three instances:

• I’d been working a busy 12 hour shift in a pub. Woke myself up pulling a pint. It was a John Smiths.

• don’t know what I was dreaming, but woke myself up sighing ‘oh Peter’. The only Peter I knew was my uncle.

• creeped myself out waking up laughing once! Didn’t like that!

DH doesn’t talk in his sleep but he does grunt and sigh a lot. When we first started dating I used to crack up listening to him humming and squeaking himself to sleep

I did a wee in the family laundry basket at the top of the stairs

When my mum shouted up the stairs 'what are you doing' I responded with 'go away mum I'm on the loo!'

First I knew about it was there being loads of washing outside on the line, the laundry basket drying outside having been cleaned and a really smug look on my sister's face at breakfast!

I saw somewhere that there’s a phone app you can use to record yourself sleep talking - it’s voice activated and then you check it when you wake up.

I am a chronic sleep talker. I often have vivid nightmares and once had a dream that dh was chasing me. We were all in white in a white Greek temple and he was brandishing a kitchen knife. I screamed and irl dh woke me. I promptly told him to f off and slapped his face

I once was sleep walking and was dreaming that there was another woman in bed with me and my bf at the time. I was so annoyed that I dressed and was about to leave when I realized that there wasn’t anybody in our bed

Both times I’ve had newborns I’ve woken up multiple times looking for the other baby (like there is a missing twin). I’ve woken my husband up in my sleep asking him to find our missing baby

I do talk in my sleep and can answer questions , carry on a conversation but have no recollection in the morning.

I am a very heavy sleeper and hardly anything ever wakes me up apart from a few years ago when my DH kicked me in my side and it was so painful I woke up bolt upright in bed and asked him what was going on - his reply

“I thought you were a hyena “ and he carried on sleeping !

Not long ago I was having a dream where I was being chased, it felt so vivid that dh said I was thrashing my legs about in bed and then jumped out of bed and ran head first into the wardrobe door, that was when I woke up, dh had to calm me down

My DF has an intense snake phobia and was on a long overnight flight. He climbed up to stand (crouch) on his seat and started throwing the little pillows around the cabin because the snakes were coming 😂
This was in the 80s and well before the more recent snakes-on-a-plane movies.

DP does this. He once woke me up asking where the plate of hamburgers was, no idea what he was on about.

Another time he said ‘aw look at all the ballerinas’ I said what u on about he said ‘ they’re very pretty, twirling round and round’ he’s a big fanny

My grandfather once kicked my grandma in the shin and shouted goal in his sleep

- creeped myself out waking up laughing once! Didn’t like that!

I love it when I do that! It always makes me feel so good. It only ever happens early on in the night (1.5-2h after I fall asleep is my prime sleep-whatevering time), in which case I fall back to sleep very easily and have good dreams, or in the morning about 1/2-1h before I would normally wake, in which case I get up very much on the right side of the bed.
