Diffidentia Posted August 2, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 2, 2009 When I was young, I used to sleep walk. I was in complete control over what I was doing but I was in an altered state of mind. For instance, I would wake up in the morning thinking that I dreamt something when in reality I was actually doing it. There also seemed to be a common theme of "finding the light" in all of my sleep walking episodes. Today, I wouldn't say I sleep walk, however I have (what I call) sleep delusions. I will wake up and swear that I am in someone elses house. The other night, I started panicing. My room didnt look like my room. It was completely different. I got up, got dressed and began to play my escape from this strangers house. I was in complete control of my actions however I was in an altered state of mind. One time I almost left the house because I was so sure that I was in someone elses house and that they were going to find me and flip out. Of course out of all these episodes I have always "came to" asked myself what I am doing, and went back to bed. In the morning I notice things, like clothes on the floor, door unlocked and then I remember that I had a dream that I was trying to escape my house, only I wasn't dreaming it was real. Any suggestions as to what the hell is happening? Also there are times where I will sit up in bed and have conversations with people who aren't actually there... I really don't know how to explain it. Regardless, Thanks for reading my story Any information will help, Musically Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marby Posted August 2, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I'm no expert, though I do have sleep disorder issues and do a lot of reading on stuff like this. Seems like you are dealing with an extreme form of sonambulism that you should have a professional look into. While you seem to snap out of it before you do anything that could possibly endanger you, I would be wary of the one day that you snap out of it while you're driving around town in your sleep. Seriously. I can't even really offer up anything more than this. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
