I have issues with sleep walking and have moved into a place with roommates and I think it kinda freaks them out finding me asleep in places in the house besides my room in the morning. Doesn’t help my room gets kinda warm so I generally don’t have a lot of clothes on.

If I put a lock on the door is sleep zombie me gonna be smart enough to open it or will I just go back to bed?

    Yeah they’re definitely a thing, but I don’t know what they’re called.

    I think they have you sleep in a medical facility with nurses or grad students watching you all night or something; it’s been recommended I see one for sleep apnea because apparently I just stop breathing in my sleep sometimes.

      Yeah I apparently get apnea as well. At least I've had people tell me I can snore really loud and then start gasping. But it's not consistent, some nights I sleep like a babe and others I'm choking on my own throat.

        For sleep apnea they don't require you to stay overnight, you just attach a little oxygen sensor to one of your fingers before you go to sleep and they check the data it gathered.
