I texted in my sleep

[KingSpeed]

Craziest thing that's ever happened to me.

I've been staying up very late, often not going to bed until 7am. Anyway, I went to bed at 6:15am last "night." I set my alarm for 10am cuz I had told my friend Emily I would call her then. I put the phone next to my bed so that it would definitely wake me up and remind me to call her. And so I went to sleep.

I woke up. I checked my phone to see what time it was. It was 2pm. I wondered why the phone had not woken me up and I saw I had a text message from my friend Jenna saying "You won that??" I wondered why she said that so I looked at my text messages and saw that I texted her at 11am. I texted "5000$" I have no idea what that meant and I don't remember texting that to her at all.

Okay. It gets weirder. I continued to check my text messages and noticed that at 10am, I texted my partner Charles (he's in NYC, I'm in L.A.) I texted "Jacque." I don't remember doing that at all. Have no idea why I would text that. The only Jacque that I know is a guy who works at my parking garage in NYC. It seems really weird that I would text that.

Then, I checked my phone log and saw that I had called Charles 5 times from 10am to 10:01am.

So to recap, I got up at 10am, called Charles 5 times, texted him "Jacque," layed back down, got up at 11am, texted Jenna "5000$" and then woke up at 2pm remembering nothing. And I never called Emily. I mean, I called Emily at 2pm but not when I was supposed to at 10am.

Isn't that insane? I looked it up online and apparently, I'm not the only one who's done this.

Has this happened to any of you? It freaks me out.

 

[NJNetz]

Sounds cool to me.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

you're freaking us all out.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

are you taking ambien?

 

[Mamba]

Let's see.

Obviously you're cheating on Charles with Jacque.

And you're one of the obsessive-controlling types. You called him 5 times in a minute?

You dirty, rotten whore.

 

[KingSpeed]

I'm not taking Ambien, but I do take three medications for my bipolar disorder. They tend to knock me out pretty good.

 

[bintim]

Med check!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

manic episode? could explain the lack of sleep.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Are you on any new medication?

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I've done this but only on Ambien.

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I've known people who are bipolar who have experienced similar things. Much worse though, paranoid hallucinations.

 

[DynastYWarrioR6]

How come I didn't get a text or call???

Where's the love man? I thought we had something special

 

[cwgirlup75]

My ex is bi-polar and has done weird things like that when his meds are a bit out of whack. You might want to look into that (just a suggestion).

 

[drexlersdad]

cocaine is a helluva drug

 

[44Thrilla]

I've done this. I think I wake up for such a short amount of time that I don't even remember it when I wake up again. Usually the texts I send make sense, though.

Hellz Jeah!

 

[Sedatedfork]

I think Oden should have claimed this when his sexting pic got released.

 

[tlongII]

Sounds like you were drunk to me...

 

[Colonel Ronan]

Your film partner?

 

[dpc]

You probably were having dreams about something $5000 and probably that Jacque guy. Then you "slept walk", but instead you slept texted. That'd be my guess. And I'm guessing the drugs have something to do with it.

 

[NJNetz]

Can you text me?

 

[Ed O]

If you were awake and txting, would you actually txt "5000$" or "$5000"? I'm not trying to correct you... just wondering if it was consistent with your waking state.

[GriLtCheeZ]

I wonder if anyone posts on this board in their sleep?

 

[DaRizzle]

are sleep and blacked out drunk the same thing?

 

[drexlersdad]

are sleep and blacked out drunk the same thing?

if so ive had alot of sex in my sleep

 

[The_Lillard_King]

I've done this but only on Ambien.

Have you really, as a 17 year old, taken ambien?

 

[44Thrilla]

if so ive had alot of sex in my sleep

Same here. I'm almost a virgin if you only count awake sex.

 

[Eastoff]

are sleep and blacked out drunk the same thing?

no, they are definitely not. also when you are sleep drunk, you are not getting REM sleep.

 

[Eastoff]

if so ive had alot of sex in my sleep

you can actually do this. it is reasonably common.
