Luckily I don't have this habit but my boyfriend has. One time he was talking about his work, having heard what he said, I asked him what was he talking about and said he has to do something related to his work. I was surprised to see him standing up and about to start walking towards the door. I pulled his arm and asked if he was already awake, then he turned to me and after a few seconds, told me that he will go to the comfort room. The next morning I asked him if he was awake when he stood up from bed and he said he can't remember what happened. It happens especially when he is so tired and stressed about work. When I told some friends about this, I joked and said, fortunately it was about work because if it was about another girl then something else might have happened..LOL!

My kids usually do talk in their sleep after playing all day. There was this incident when my eldest was half awaken due to his grand daddy's snoring, he hugged and keep rumbling things that i can't understand. He would hug me tighter and trembles every time he hears the snoring. I keep asking him what's wrong but it seems that he's still asleep. i shook him a couple of times until he was fully awake. He looked where the snoring came from, stand up and went to the bathroom to take a pee and go back to sleep as if nothing happened.

My younger daughter used to yell out in her sleep a lot...still does for all I know. She was either fearful or angry. Occasionally she would sleepwalk as well.
She is 38 now and has a 12 year old daughter. Her daughter sleepwalks a lot. She has stayed with her cousins whose bedrooms are upstairs and they have managed to catch her each time she has been about to go downstairs. She stayed here with me once as well as the rest of the family and she was sleepwalking then. Poor little mite...I didn't realise what was happening and asked her what she was doing and she was unable to get the words out. She spoke mostly gibberish and so I was a bit sharp with her telling her to go back to bed. She went back to bed and slept peacefully from then on. I spoke to her in the morning and she knew nothing of what I was saying and one of my other granddaughters piped up and said..."She sleepwalks".

Damn, those sleep-talking stories may be really funny, like in your case!:D
I've experienced similar thing too. When my sister was younger, she used to talk while sleeping quite often, so when I was awake, I was able to hear, what is she dreaming about. I remember one case, when someone was taking something away from her in her dream, so she was telling him/her "No! Give it back! Give it back or I'll tell my mother!"
It was quite funny, I laughed silently

Apparently, I have been told that I talk my sleep a lot
People have often repeated back to me the things I have said in the night, and say that it genuinely creeps them out
I just hope I don't say something too scandalous or embarassing

I talk in my sleep when I am really stressed out. My mom told me that I always mumbled in my sleep when I was still working in one of my high stress jobs. And I guess I knew that even in my sleep I was stressed out because upon waking up, its as if you hadn't slept at all.

As far as I can remember there is only one instance that they, my family, heard me sleep talk but then they all look like making a fool out of me so I did not believe it. I'm really not a sleep talker but I know I snore a lot when I'm pretty tired.
One of my uncles is a sleep talker and he is very articulate when it comes to it. I made the other room in the house my temporary office for lotting and he arrived at home and I found he was gonna sleep for the week in our house. During the first night I heard him said "Where lacking some lemons" and I was surprise upon hearing it then the next day he said "Stop! It tickles" I laughed and talked to him asking him what he was saying and to my surprise he answered me but the answer was totally non sense because he said "I'm going in the kitchen" I don't think I can connect something that tickles and kitchen

My boyfriend told me that his brothers are sleep talkers. My boyfriend is insomniac so he gets to witness his brothers talking while sleeping. He said that sometimes he plays with them. He ask them questions and he said his brothers are answering them! Lol!

My cousin who is at the same age as mine talks whenever she sleeps. My first encounter to a sleep talker was when I was in grade school. We had a school camp. In the middle of the night one of my classmates began murmuring something. At first I thought she was talking to me as she was sleeping beside me. I told her I can't hear her. I came closer to her and saw she was sleeping. She was crying and saying something I cannot understand. I woke her up as I got scared coz I thought maybe she was having a nightmare. She told me that she really talks when she sleeps.

I used to sleepwalk when I was a kid. I think I also talk in my sleep. I hope I didn't divulge too much when I stayed with my ex girlfriedn because if I ever get famous, she would have a lot of stuff on me. I used to wake up and she'd be staring down at me. Scary!

I walk and talk and do a lot of things when sleeping. I didn't know this, since sleepwalkers are never aware of what they are doing. However, once I woke up and I was lying on newspaper. I got up in the middle of the night and put newspapers all over my bed and then lied on them. My mother told me I did that. I also talk a lot in my sleep, but I have never said anything embarassing, at least I think so. I'm a bit worried about living with someone other than my parents and talking in my sleep because you never know what you're going to reveal.

i have a niece she is 9 yrs old... and she really does talk and walk in her sleep... i remember one time i was sleeping (we were in the same room but separate beds) and i heard her calling me so loud that it woke me up and asked her why?!? she was sitting up and then she just slept again...
then the next tym she just stood up like she was going somewhere... i asked her where was she going, but she bumped her forehead so hard on the wall.. but she didn't cry she just again went back to sleep... the next day she was saying that she has a headache and can't go to school... hahaha
the last tym i saw her again was when my my mom was leaving very early around 4:00 am.. i was going to lock the front door after she leaves... after she left my niece just went out of the room... and i asked her again!! where was she going... she said "i'll just take a pee" but instead of going straight to the c.r. she managed to climbed up the stairs going to the second floor of the house... i was like huh!! i thought she said pee?!? but she went down eventually and went straight to the c.r.
hah!! those are just my personal encounters with her... i think my mom has a more stories....
ciao!!!

Yes, I have encountered someone talked, walked while their were sleeping.
It's kinda weird but it's true and it was funny. My younger brother, and some of my cousins are sleep walkers and talkers. There's one night that I remember, it was 3 o'clock in the morning. I have to go to the bathroom to pee, and to my astonishment, my cousin Rommel (9y/o) was walking into the kitchen, and was not awake. It was a very funny moment. I followed him into the kitchen and looked what was he about to do. I was a surprise. He took a mug and a stirrer then he stirs like he was stirring a cup of coffee.

Sometimes my sister talks in her sleep. She only does it if we're all talking late at night, and she falls asleep during our conversation. The first time it happened, we were all talking, and all of a sudden, she starts talking about birthday cake We had no idea what she was talking about, and then realized she was asleep.
Since then, we figured out how to make her talk in her sleep We'd wait until she just barely fell asleep, then we would start gently talking to her and asking her questions, and she'd respond with the weirdest answers

I can tell you I myself do all those things, it gets scary for people when they see it the first time, but it is ok, I have tried to open the door of my apartment, I have said things to my boyfriend when I am asleep. But at the end he knows that I am asleep, it took him some time to get used to that, at the beginning he couldn't identify when I was awake or asleep. Some people think that there are some health disorder relater with sleep walkers but that is not the case. We are perfectly normal people, we don't do anything violent when we sleep.

The men in my family, inlcuding my husband, are sleep talkers and walkers. My son comes in my room shouting things in the middle of the night. He also has a recurring dream of being stuck in the box and he would be all balled up. I just stretch his body out and he goes back to sleep. He thanks me everytime for getting him out of the box. lol

My father would talk in his sleep. It was like he was fighting with someone in his sleep. Don't know why.
