Night Terrors

  • UA5straightin2008
    My roommate has night terrors and sleep walks a few times a week and it has really become a nuisance..it wakes me up every night and scares me to death sometimes when i wake up to him screaming bloody murder...anyone else have these or ever had to deal with them? anything that he can do to keep them under control or anything?

    Is it similar to this?

  • UA5straightin2008
    haha no not really, its more threatening and there is more swearing going on

    Punch him and tell him to get back in bed.

    My ex wife used to have these, it could be scary sometimes. She would wake up screaming at the top of lungs. She would swear someone was on top of her (well besides me trying to get some) and completely freak out. She would also sit up, eyes wide open and try to fight me, throw punches, swing widly, etc...and be completely out of it, it was scary!!

    i think it is too, hes not really the biggest fan of the school and has gotten into some trouble

    Yeah, um, kill him. Or wait until he kills you. Whoever's life is more valuable to you.

    yes its very similar to this, but we arent in the same bed, he is on the top bunk and i am on the bottom bunk..but he yells things like "look me in the eyes or ill fucking kill you" or "get the fuck over here before i murder you" but a lot of it is like gibberish too which is kinda creepy

    You need to invest in some high quality noise cancelling head phones.......and a gun.

    Upon further review, strike that!

    When you wake him up, does he say "the clown has NO penis"
  • UA5straightin2008
    haha

    nah i dont wake him up because supposedly your not supposed to wake up a sleep walker

    I don't know much about night terrors/sleep walking, but if he is saying stuff like that, it sounds like he has some deep seeded psych issues. Does he know that he does this? If he doesn't, you should tell him and see if he will get some help...
  • UA5straightin2008
    he knows he does it and has done it for a while i guess (all through out HS), sometimes in the morning he'll ask if he did it the night before and he always apologizes and is kind of embarrassed about it

    Building a defense. But hey, it's your life, maybe it isn't that important to you.

    My roomate in college has just broken up with his girlfriend...he would wake up and scream FUCK YOU KATIE! as loud as he could some nights...I always laughed at him.

    My girlfriend just had one of these within the past 2 weeks. She didn't yell because I guess someone was choking her. She just decided to sweat so much I slept on the floor after she woke us up.

    He needs to smoke some good pot before he goes to sleep every night.

    Oh....I just thought of something. This sounds like a case for Trooperden!

    There's nothing terrifying about the night
