24 People Talk About What Happens When People “Sleep Talk”

Sleepwalking is what happens basically when your brain fails to produce the chemicals necessary to keep you still while you’re asleep so you don’t start acting out your dreams.

I’ve never really had that problem, though I’ve suffered the opposite – a phenomenon called sleep paralysis where that chemical keeps getting produced even though you’re conscious. It’s freaky. I think I’d probably trade it for sleepwalking if I could.

I do, apparently, talk just a bit in my sleep. More frequently, I was informed by an ex girlfriend, I hum little tunes. Not too surprising as I am a musician of sorts, but it pales in comparison to how interesting some of these sleep talking confessions are.
