Sleep Walking - Page 11

Pheebs · 10-03-2011, 16:11

Saw one donkeys ago, they just advised a change in my diet and prep for sleep. It worked to an extent. They told my folks that unfortunately I have an "over active" brain and there's not really a cure for that as such. It just occurs with me when I'm:

a) Hot
b) Drunk
c) Ill
d) Worried/stressed/anxious
e) Have too much energy

Have cut out all caffeine really now (I have possibly one or two cups of tea a week all before 12noon and have bought decaffinated for when my other runs out... what kind of shoddy builder do I make not drinking tea all day!) I don't eat anything of high energy in the evening - my lunch times tend to be a bigger meal (which makes sense as this is when I'm starving anyway from 4-5hours worth of walking in the morning and then a load of DIY in the afternoon), I have a bath before bed, make sure my window is open and make sure I won't be over heated during the night. No heavy reading (only crosswords or factual) for up to an hour before bed and no films for up to an hour before bed.

1 hour before = relax and wind down.

It's what I've been doing the past couple of weeks thus I think my reduced sleep walking. The other night I woke up BAKING... so I'm presuming that's why I slept walked!

Never have harmed myself (well other than slicing my feet up in a camp site once). Only ever wake up very very tired and with things moved about

It would seem when I have someone with me I am less likely to walk. I don't know why this is... as I thought it would be the opposite as I am more likely to get hotter! But then equally I don't sleep as well if someones with me... it's a very light sleep so maybe I don't reach the stage of sleepwalkies so often?

Who knows!

If it happens once every few weeks I'm not going to complain! If it starts getting regular again I will go see the doc!

Was a tad worried to come down this morning to find text messages, 2 missed calls and a VM message from Ms Peebles this morning! VM sounds VERY confused, just saying my name over & over and "I'm very tired and very confused".

Very interesting text too!

Drink + Over heating in a room of 6 girlies = Cunning-sleep-walking-Pheebs-who-wants-to-go-to-the-zoo.

Pics to come (very similar to spoons actually)

Yet again, apologies ladies for my jibber jabber and night time trek! Glad Mei didn't think it was me talking last night when Vix apparently was - I would have been bopped on the nose!

Note to anyone who ever has to share a room with Pheebs. When it becomes too much (after two hours in this case) just shout very loudly
"PHEEBS, SHUT UP AND GO TO SLEEP!" Because it works.

So, a recording of that, and a motion sensor. Problem solved!

I did some good talking last night. Phil told me this morning. Something about rabbits, fur and superchargers. He remembered so hope he posts here later.

I'm amazed she didn't sleepwalk the 12ft to Anfield stadium and find herself curled up on the pitch
