Talking in your sleep is just the beginning.
, M.D., Ph.D., a professor of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, tells SELF.
Confusional arousals usually aren’t harmful. You probably won’t even remember them and may only know about them because a partner clues you into their occurrence. But if they are recurring and bothering you, lifestyle changes that include cutting back on , treating any other underlying sleep disorder, and trying to regularly get a full night’s rest may help you avoid future episodes. You can talk to your doctor for more guidance.. Just as with confusional arousals, sleepwalking happens during those partial arousals when some areas of your brain are awake while others are not.
When a person sleepwalks, some parts of the brain that manage higher-level functions like the cerebrum and cerebral cortex appear to remain offline. This means that the behavior sleepwalkers exhibit tends to be pretty basic, as Dr. Mindel explains, such as ambling through the house or rummaging through a closet. “Sleepwalkers also tend to be suggestible,” Dr. Mindel says. That means that a simple, “Hey, why don’t you go back to bed?” with a very gentle nudge might do the trick.
