Hi,
With all that lot I would sing in my sleep!
It is not unusual to talk in ones sleep. I had a lotof experience with shared dormitories; college, workplace, various camps, and heard many people talk. One boy in college always started talking 5 minutes after going to sleep. You would be surprised at the "tall stories he told"
When you sleep near the waking level of consciousness, the dreams are more vivid. However some medicines create "noise" in the brain and the dreams have to be more vivid and more violent to deliver their commands.

Yes, you say "everyone" says you talk in your sleep; how long have they been saying this?

I don't usually talk in mine but was out of town for a business week that was stressful and my roommate was laughing one morning, thought for sure my husband had told me, and when I was still looking clueless explained I'd been mumbling, rehearsing part of a speech I had to give

I talk in my sleep too. I don't know if I have done it all my life, but I found out about it when I had roomates in college. It was a huge source of entertainment for my roomies. We called it "sleepy talk". Once I was good and asleep they would talk to me and try to get me to say things. The things that I said were apparently hilarious bc they made absolutely no sense whatsoever. This was a million times worse when I had been drinking. They used to write down things I said so we could remember them and laugh at them later when I was awake. Now my husband gets to listen to me yap away in my sleep. He doesn't try to get me to do it for fun like they did, but when he tries to wake me up from sleeping on the couch so I can go to bed, I will start talking sometimes. I even open my eyes and look awake sometimes. He will swear that I am awake and talking to him but I won't remember it at all.
Sometimes it worries me bc I hope I don't say something that would upset my husband. I mean, what if I was having a dream - that I could not control at all - and I said something that would hurt his feelings, lol. It also worries me for real bc I think I do have sleep issues as I don't fully awaken even when my husband shakes the life out of me. I will kick and scream and tell him to stop, but I am not awake and don't remember it later.

My college roommate once sat up in the middle of the night when I was pulling an all-nighter and started patting the bedding, asking, "Where's my chain?" and I assumed she'd lost a necklace she wore all the time or something and walked over toward the bed asking her, "What chain?" and she kept saying/doing the same thing and then laid down and was "out" again and I realized she'd been asleep all that time but it was like she'd been dead and had risen from the dead, LOL, gave me the willies; like Scrooge's partner, Marley!

My older brother talks in his sleep. But we can never figure out what he was saying lol, it just sounded like he was saying the words backwards XD.

I talk in my sleep too, but I usually say random random stuff , like one time my friend said I yelled '****ing Sheep !!!!!" , She woke me up laughing.

My brother also looks dead when he sleeps, me and my friends mess with him all the time, we could pick up his hand and slap himself with it and he would'nt wake up.
I spray tanned his back a dark dark tan one day for breaking my surf board, he still doesnt know his back is an extreame reddish brown

I do sing in my sleep, or so I'm told. Whistle, too, not to mention talking. I've asked "What am I singing?" & the answer is usually "Oh just a simple little tune." I'll talk in both good & bad moods; it's no fun to wake up with a clenched fist, yelling "You MFer!"

My wife snores like crazy but seldom talks, although once she sat bolt upright & said, as clear as day, "I've got you now, you funny little fellow!" She said later she had been chasing a jacket named Little Red Fur.

She does sometimes snore so loud she wakes herself up, which I have to admit I find hilarious.

My mother talked in her sleep all the time,. We would play games and sit and laugh listening to her ( I was 10). One time talking about a "mayonnaise pump" another time, told me to get the keys and go to Dairy Queen and pick up some food. I thought she was awake until she told ME to drive, lol, I was 10.
I talk and walk in my sleep. My husband tells of a time when I stood up out of the bed and looked back at the bed and said, "A f...king Camero?" I was dreaming that i had purchased a car and when I parked it I got out and walked to the front of the car and looked back at it, and I remember saying that in my dream. But I had gotten out of bed and walked to the corner and looked back and said it. He still laughes about that one.
I should have been in a Mustang...that is my favorite car, classic mustang. I have never wanted a Camero....unless it was a 1967 model.

I've been known to talk in my sleep all my life and I sleep walk as well...don't think I've done it in a while or maybe I have and don't know it lol. The times I talked I tend to be nasty and if someone tries to reason with me I become argumentative lol .....I'm always right. My oldest daughter is the same way.

When I was a kid I used to wear those long nightgowns and I got up(sleeping) ....I woke as I was falling on the floor because I was trying to take it off and fell down lol. I woke up on the floor with my nightgown over my head.

I walk talk, cry, sing (very badly), in my sleep. I do housework, go outside, I fight; I have a complete other life, well more than one actually and do some bizarre things talking in foreign languages, understanding foreign languages (which someone explained to me once something to do with learning or being around someone who spoke that language when I was young).

I don't remember any of this at all, when my head touches the pillow now I am totally out like a light because I suffered so badly with insomnia and it took so long to get into a sleep pattern and even now there are nights I have to take meds for it but my behaviour is no different; except there are nights I don't move a muscle or make a noise which are few and far between.

But when I get up I feel as if I've run a marathon and I'm so tired but there is nothing I can do unless I get up the courage to leave the house and go to a sleep clinic which I'd love to do so that it could be stopped and me allowed to have peaceful nights sleep and for my partner nights that he can sleep without being worried where I will end up. He sleeps 'til the afternoon once I am up and out of bed...poor darling...

um... hmmm.. I don't know.. Makes me wonder if my meds do.. lol..
I know with sleep, cymbalta used to effect me where I had lucid dreams every night.

I know I used to get up and sleep walk when I was a kid, and sometimes my mom would come in and i'd sit straight up in bed and look at her, and just stare at her. She said i freaked her out. lol. But I guess it was just me mid sleep because later on in life, I woke up while sitting up like that and my grandmother was talking to me, but I remember the odd feeling of being asleep to the gravity pull of sitting up looking at someone talking who i didn't even know what she was going on about. lol.

Then just a few years ago, I woke my self up talking something about "bird" I was saying a full sentence but when i woke up i remember thinking "Bird?! O_o why was i talking about a bird?!" then because i was sleeping over at my friends house i looked over hoping she didn't hear me. (and she was asleep so it was all good. lol!).
Then i've screamed, and cried in my sleep and woke up in the mid of them. oh and also hiccups..
Once I woke up talking to my dog who wasn't around anymore.. and it took me a few seconds to realize, one, i was talking, two, my dog hadn't been around a good year so.. :\ ..
But yeah.. idk.. I was on meds off and on all my life... anywhere from add/adhd meds to depression/anxiety meds. (after 18 they started trying antipsychotics and other bits, but those weren't long used).

I've talked in my sleep since childhood, my mom talked "to" us kids when she would nap during the day, too. I think two of my brothers also talk in their sleep, and my 9 year old son does it too - the other day when we were camping he yelled from his bunk in the middle of the night "OH YEAH, *I* HAVE A MONOPOLY GAME!" I about died from trying to keep my laughter down.

That's to say, I don't think it necessarily has to be from a med, I think some people just dream more vividly.

And I love your sig, Skillet is a great band and I love their music.

In fact I found my son sleeping downstairs this early morning and he just now "told" me (dead asleep) that Legos are LIKE rocketships, Nathan!!" (Nathan is his brother). He sounded pretty mad
