Dear Spindly,
Sleepwalking can be dangerous ( people on night meds/and not: have reported driving and awakening in the car in the morning!)
Have you ever had a sleep study?
If that is not possible record yourself sleeping and bring that to a doctor. There are meds to keep you from moving but they cause a paralyzing effect, which could make dreamtime into a nightmare so thats a last resort!
A very inexpensive tactic can keep you from not walking out of your bedroom can be little dixie cups filled with a small amount of cold water and line the doorway. Water will wake you up. Or a bell on the door, or a motion triggered light.
I would concentrate on building your sleeping skills.
Again voice recording your sleep for a period of time, and listen to your sleep talk. I have.
Screaming while asleep tells me you have a lot on your mind, you might not be aware of what, it could be old issues from the past or present troubles.
I wish you good nights and pm me if you like.
Happiedasiy
