Some Strange Things People Do In Their Sleep
Though some of the strange things that we do in our sleep may be connected with the presence of a sleep disorder, others are, in fact, normal physiological occurrences that are extremely common. Here are some strange things people do while asleep.
Sleep talking
Sleep talking is usually brief and infrequent, but it is a strange thing that can range from a person making a few sounds during sleep that are brief and unintelligible, to full phrases with understandable content or even frequent and long speeches which sound hostile or angry.
Sleep starts
Sleep starts are characterized by a sensation of falling from a great height, or tripping, which causes the body to jerk and the sleeper to wake up.
Although sleep starts are a normal occurrence, scientists suggest that certain factors like fatigue, emotional stress and sleep deprivation may increase their likelihood.
Sleep walking
Sleepwalking often begins with the individual sitting up in bed, fumbling with bedclothes, looking about in a confused manner before getting out of bed and slowly beginning to walk around. The eyes are usually open, often wide open with a confused glassy stare.
Sexual acts
One of the unconscious or strange things people do during sleep is sex. This happens when the individual attempts to involve an unwitting co-sleeper. But due to the fact that they remain unconscious throughout these acts, and they cannot remember them the following morning,.
Acting out dreams
Individuals with this behavior disorder tend to act out or physically respond to whatever takes place in their dreams, which isn’t always great news. Such troubled sleepers may make chaotic movements that correspond to their dream content but mostly not violent to themselves or others.
