    I was sharing a room with a friend once when woke me up talking. She was sitting up, eyes open and pointing to the other side of the room saying "It's okay...come here". I thought she was awake so asked her who she was talking to. She kept pointing to this shadowy corner of the room saying "the family. It's okay, come here".

    It was so intensely creepy, took me ages to get back to sleep.

    For my own contribution, my Dad was passing my room years ago when he heard me calling him. He asked me what was wrong and I apparently asked him to make me a sandwich. Sleep-hunger, not a problem.

    I woke myself up this morning saying "TWENTY"out loud.

    Looks like you guys re-creating the count to a million thread in your sleep.

    I woke one morning when I was a teenager, singing Frankie Goes to Hollywood's Two Tribes..
    Just last night I woke up to hear myself spelling "laughter", just like I was in a spellin bee or something:confused:

    I regualrly enough wake my self up just normal talking, i'll be having conversation in my sleep and i start yapping and it wakes me!

    known to shout too, usually during nightmares.. done it during summer when i was sharing house for 3 weeks for job, awful nightmare, woke me up, got up out of bed, thought i was grand, jumped back into bed, and started shakin/crying ,was scared, don't know why though!

    had bit of explaining to do to male housemate in room beside mine next morning, cos it'd been 3am and he heard the cries! lol!!:confused:

    actually last night, i started singing ,just remembered because it woke me, I'm slightly hoarse at the moment so i stopped!!

    My OH woke me up one night by shouting "tiny tiny baby" in a really weird voice. I have no interest in knowing what he was dreaming about!
    Is your OH a priest?

    I never talk in my sleep but I do sleep with my eyes open. They are closed at the start but once Im asleep the open. My 4 yr old is the same sleeps with her eyes wide open. She sleeps in with me as well so we must make a strange sight :eek:

    My sister sleep walks. Years ago she lived on patricks hill in cork and one time she woke up outside on the street completely naked after closing the door behind her:eek:

    Often woke up from a nightmare making that terrified muffled grunt ya make when your so scared your brain short circuits.

    Me and my friend were both working as technical advisers in SKY, we woke up amid a full blown discussion about viewing cards, quoting numbers and everything. Not as bad as one one of my other friends though who said he woke up screaming his head off, poor chap!

    I have never laughed so much at a thread. :pac:

    Usually I just mumble in my sleep but I do sometimes dream about work and wake
    standing up going to do something work related.

    I also recently had a dream that I killed Voldemort. Not relevant but I felt awesome afterwards and woke up smiling! :D

    I apparently done this last time I had a fever. Sat up, eyes open and pointing at the wall saying 'Look! Look!', before just laying down again. Don't remember it happening at all

    That's called sleep apnea... And it could be something you might want to get checked out actually...

    Woke myself up last night by talking, than started screaming at OH for waking me up.... :rolleyes:

    Best one was technically not talking but after watching the first Paranormal activity, during the night my OH woke up fo find me at the end of the bed just standing there staring at the wall....

    ....And one night we watched the A-Team, during the night i was screaming there was someone at the window and i was sitting up in bed pointing at it and the OH opened the curtains(half freaked) and noone there. I was dreaming Barack was standing on the extension looking in....


    I dunno how he puts up with me :rolleyes:

    Had a dream I was back in primary school. Nothing special, was just an average day, putting our hands up to ask questions.

    I then woke up with my arm raised in the air and in a half-daze wondering where the pencil case I was holding in the other hand went to.

    I refuse to sleep on buses anymore, especially if I'm beside someone because I always wake up in a jolt with my arms flailing and legs kicking the seat in front of me. Last time I elbowed an old woman pretty hard :o

    I woke up really early a few weeks back shouting "Yea, I'm awake!" in an angry tone. I thought I heard my mother shouting me to get up to leave her to work, only when I seen it was 4 in the morning I realised I dreamt it :o

    And I was told this morning that my door was wide open, even though I always close it every night before I go to bed, so most likely a bit of sleep walking went on!

    I was quite the sleeptalker when I was younger.

    Once when sharing a room with my brother I woke him up because I was speaking in a dream.
    I still vividly remember the dream: I was being chased by a tyrannosaurus rex in a supermarket, and I'm pretty sure that the part that woke my brother was when I angrily shouted "F**k off, ya bollocks!!" at the dinosaur.

    Another time my mother was waking me up for school and I insisted on frantically telling her something involving Louis Armstrong and a racehorse from Moate.
    I didn't remember dreaming so I don't think they had anything to do with a dream.
    The thing is, I was more than half-conscious and was not only aware of what I was saying, but also of the fact that it made no sense whatsoever. Yet I continued saying it.
    It didn't even make any kind of sense whatsoever: there was no connection between Louis and the horse, and I knew that! I know I was also saying other connecting words in between, but I don't think even they made any sense and were just random words thrown together, which again, I was somewhat aware of.
    She asked me what the hell I was talking about, which confirmed my suspicions that I wasn't making any sense, but I couldn't stop myself from repeating it.
    When I got up shortly after that, I wasn't sure if I'd talked about Louis and the horse or just dreamt it, but when I got down to breakfast my mother confirmed that I had indeed been speaking, and I was pretty mortified.
    To this day I have no idea what happened to my brain for those few minutes.
