Okay, so...
I have recently become really paranoid that I’m sleepwalking. Thing is, I don’t have a history of it and, according to my mom, never did it as a child, even. I’ve had this fear before (when I was, like, eighteen, I used to put a chair in front of my bedroom door) but it has come back really strong now. I have been with my husband for the last three years, and in those three years, he says he’s never seen me sleepwalk.
I’ve been putting booby traps in front of the bedroom and front doors, and each time I do that, they’re perfectly unsprung in the morning. It’s when I think, “Okay, I’m being dumb,” and decide NOT to put a booby trap that I get worried in the morning.
I always wake up in my bed, often in the same position I fell asleep in. I once recorded myself sleeping to see what I do, and for the entire hour and a half nap, I literally did not move at all.
Today I woke up with a small scrape on my wrist that wasn’t there when I went to sleep, and I am spiraling a bit. I do do this thing where I tighten my fingers in my sleep. I’ve done it twice to my husband so far this year, where I’ll have a hand draped over his chest or something and I’ll end up clawing him in my sleep. I’m thinking I might’ve done that to myself, but I can’t shake the anxiety over sleepwalking :(
Any help?
