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?

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!!

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.

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...

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 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.
