We have heard of various issues regarding sleepwalking and sleep driving but sleep-texting? Apparently this stems from the fact that a lot of people today are going crazy over texting, the modern way of communicating with anyone with the use of any mobile phone today.

Some people just cannot sit well without seeing their mobile phone beside them since anyone at any time may be texting them or perhaps on the other way around, sending messages at any moment they feel like by pushing the keypads of their phone.

Normally, we would find ourselves falling asleep and sleeping alongside our phones. But while we all know that we will fall asleep, is it indeed possible to send messages unknowingly to another person while we are in our slumber state?

But some sleep experts have another explanation for the sleep text messaging, particularly in those situations in which the text message is coherent. Some say the messages are written while the patient is awake, but they have amnesia for the event. “The `sleep texter’ may have actually been awake, but had not formed new memories for the event,” says Scott Fromherz, medical director of Westside Sleep Center in Tigard, Ore.

“There is a `built-in’ amnesia of sleep that occurs when the brain is briefly awakened for less than three minutes,” he says.

Thus, a person might wake up in the middle of the night, text someone, go back to sleep and have no recollection of the activity the next morning.

All of us will have our share of working too hard and getting to the point of being too fatigued. We all know the consequences such as weakened bodies and drowsy feeling whenever the lack of sleep persists. However, it may also lead to our bodies being somewhere at some place without our knowledge of how we got there. This is of course with due reference to sleepwalking which is a known behavior that stems from fatigue and lack of proper sleep.

Is sleepwalking good or bad? Well more on the latter. It typifies an abnormality and misbehavior on our part and if we are not careful, it may lead to something disastrous since technically, we are unaware of where sleepwalking may eventually bring us.

More and more adults are suffering from sleepwalking and it may be due to the fact that we are increasingly a tired, sleep deprived 24/7 society

We all hear about insomnia or the sleep disorder that keeps people awake. But what about people who have some activities while they are asleep such as sleepwalking or sleep talking?

Parasomnia is like a sleeping stage where people are caught in a bind where they are unaware of what they can be able to do. Hence, Parasomnia is a movement that occurs during sleep, reactions to things that are going on in the brains of people.

It is being stuck in a certain stage where a person is in another state that he thinks he may be awake but is really still in the sleeping phase.

A person alone cannot determine if he or she indeed sleep walks. However, outside that of being seen by others, many would find it out the hard way. Some would find themselves in different places, some with certain changes in their bodies such as dirty feet or pajamas and so on.

Sleepwalking is a normal occurrence. It can victimize practically anyone.  As taken from Wikipedia:

Sleepwalking (also called noctambulism or somnambulism), under the larger category of parasomnias, is a sleep disorder where the sufferer engages in activities that are normally associated with wakefulness while asleep or in a sleeplike state.

Hence we may tend to do some things when we are in the trance state. Are you aware of that certain possibility? Better try and find out before it gets out of hand!
