I need to get some information, first hand or not, on sleepwalking.
As far as I know I have never walked in my sleep in the past. That all changed last night. My wife told me this morning that at 2am I got out of bed. She thought I was just going to the bathroom. After about 15 minutes when I had no come back she started to get worried so she came looking for me. She found me standing in front of the front door, asleep. I was just standing there with my eyes closed, sleeping. She took me by the hand and led me back to bed.
When I woke up she asked me about it and I had absolutely no memory of doing that. It kind of freaked me out.
The last thing I remember was watching TV. I remember noticing how awake I felt actually. Next thing I know I was waking up on the couch hours later. I went to bed and don't remember anything until the morning.
Can someone tell me about sleepwalking? Is there a possible reason this happened? What does it mean? Should I talk to someone about this or is it just one of those weird things, but is not really an issue? I have heard you should not wake a person who is sleepwalking, but I have also heard that is an old wives tale and is not dangerous at all.
Not having any memory of this is the weirdest part to me. It is very disconcerting. What if I had opened the door and gone for a walk?
OK give me your experiences if you can. I am really weirded out about this right now.
