Sleep Walking?


Question Posted Sunday January 10 2010, 9:55 am

Sometimes, I wake up in the middle of the night in my baby sisters room over her crib with a spoon, screaming random things. It's really concerning me. It happens at least twice a week, and its always in my sister's room. I'm confused because 1) Where did the spoon come from? (I don't keep any in my room..) and 2) What is wrong with me? My doctor said it was just sleep walking, but I think there's a psychological issue there somewhere.

Well how old are you first of all. Do your parents give your little sister more attention then then they give you. Are you mad at her for any reason. deep down think whats bothering you sit down and jolt it down ways to fix if you feel left our like shes getting more attetion is talk to your parents and tell them how you feel. if you are upset with your sister maybe she always gets in your stuff depending on her age talk to her. or play with her a little more

There is not really an established connection between sleepwalking and any deep psychological issues. In most cases, it's not even stress related. People who are perfectly mentally healthy sleepwalk, just like people who are perfectly mentally healthy have nightmares or night terrors or any other odd sleep behaviour. It's just a little bit of mis-wiring while you are asleep that has little bearing on anything else. If you think you have a mental health issue, it is likely a completely separate issue from your sleep walking.

If you are worried about your mental health, see a therapist. A sensible one who will talk to you about what is actually happening when you are awake, what you are thinking and feeling, not one who jumps to assumptions about things that you can't control or even remember while you are asleep.

If you are finding your sleeping walking worrisome, go back to your doctor and explain your concerns and ask for techniques (medication, diet ectra) or medication, to stop the sleepwalking.
