I am scared, I associates psychiatrist with madness. This issue disturbs me alot. She is not the only one, I was once told by my friend that I talk while sleeping. She said I was trying to figure out when a particular Nigerian state was created and the president that created it. I don't know if I have done it again since then, no one told me. Sometimes your friends may not like to tell you in order to avoid embarrasing you. I can't believe I did that in my sleep. embarassed

This is culled from WebMD -

"Consider seeing a sleep specialist and ask about the medication Klonopin". I don't know if there is a sleep specialist in Nigeria but do the net-working and find out.

Some years ago, my younger sister used to wake up every night, running round the house, screaming.

We would usually run after her, hold her and pray. We later found out it had to do with our then house help. . . some funny story

But d height of it was when she woke up one night, went to d balcony, was in d process of jumping downstairs whn som1 saw her and grabbed her!

When we asked her where she was going to, she said was going to wee wee grin

Funny but scary. Scarily funny. Funnily scary. But that was sha the last of it!

I don't understand why simply locking the bedroom doors when going to sleep is not sufficient.
Re: My Girlfriend Is A Sleep-Walker (Somnambulist) by FFA: 8:46am On Sep 01, 2009
SEUN U SAID D BEDROOM DOOR SHOULD BE LOCKED, IF D ROOM IS NOT A MASTER BEDROOM AND SHE NEEDS TO EASE HERSELF IN THE TOILET, I THINK A SOLUTION TO DIS SOMMMMMMMMM IS D WAY FORWARD.

Re: My Girlfriend Is A Sleep-Walker (Somnambulist) by Blessdee(m): 11:59am On Sep 01, 2009
nothing that scary or unusual just let her know know wat she did during the night then encourage her to sleep with consciousness, cos sleepin unconsciously or complete forgetfulness is dangerous one should be able to react to stimulus even while asleep
Re: My Girlfriend Is A Sleep-Walker (Somnambulist) by anochie: 12:11pm On Sep 01, 2009

What?!? You sound like you still don't believe that your friend saw the papers before the exam; she did! Anyway, that was sleep-talking not sleep-walking. I once talked in my sleep saying the sun will soon rise and guess what? -It did. Duhh!

what if she takes a new profession like killing ppl while sleep walking, don't u think that locked door will become a problem for an escapee? grin grin

@ gesi

For Christ sake, wot the hell is the problem wit us in dis part of the world.
Why can't we simply separate reality from fiction. This condition has been explained with scientific facts, and solution proffered. So wot has recommending deliverance at MFM got to do with solving it?
@ Poster
Pls take your girl to see a medical person who will assist you. Leave MFM alone to continue branding every condition as being caused by demons, witches and wizards. I'm sure they must have termed the present Nigerian situation as being caused by demons, when its so factual that the root cause of our problem is simply selfishness and corruption on the part of our public office holders.
The answer to all this is just to preach for a change of attitude and pronto, a new Nigeria wud emerge.

This post is really funny,i hav been laughing forgeting am in the office. Any way,how is your girl(the dish washer)? hope her condition has improved?
Re: My Girlfriend Is A Sleep-Walker (Somnambulist) by v3: 6:28pm On Mar 04, 2010
Bro, your girl ain't alone

My ex does that too, there was this time she actually slapped the daylight outta me while we were both sleeping,kept saying her ex's name&cursing him(i was like  for 2 mins). I don't understand the part about doing dishes but you'd have to tell her what she does when she's asleep and no matter how hard she takes it, make her understand.

The part about seeing a pastor doesn't cut it for me, it's NOTHING spiritual. . .it's a medical condition UNLESS she keeps saying "I'm coming Queen of the coast"  shocked shocked in her sleep,the oyo lo wa my broda. grin grin

One question,Do you live in a multiple story building? infl  shocked shocked

Peace
