Does anyone sleepwalk?
Has anyone found that certain meds will make you sleepwalk?

I do but I've always done it so I don't think it is from meds. I haven't done it since hitting high dose seroquel, at least to my knowledge and usually I do something that I can tell, like shutting the cat in the basement or garage or something weird like that.

My husband would every night. He was on Paxil. Once he took clonadine and he was out of bed for practically the entire night. It was very nerve wracking for me because he would be asleep standing up and eventually fall. He hurt himself a few times falling like that. He would also smoke in his sleep which would freak me out. Needless to say I would be up most of the night with him too.

I sort of do? I would be partially awake, barely, and binge eat, this was mostly when I was on Seroquel.

I go to bed every day and wake up sitting in front of my computer smoking a cigarette. I sleep for about 3 hours in my chair before really waking up and wondering how I got there. If my wife was not around to tell me what I do I would still be very confused about it.

With all that's happening here...no, I'm so worked out that I'm dead weight, except at 3am when everyone starts gabbing.

I talk in my sleep when I'm not medicated. Like partial conversations. Never sleep walked though.
