Adult Sleepwalking, 4


A variety of undesirable symptoms can accompany sleepwalking. When compared with a control group of non-sleepwalkers, symptoms for sleepwalkers may include:

     A higher frequency of daytime sleepiness
     Generalized fatigue,
     Insomnia,
     Symptoms of anxiety and depression
     Lowered quality of life.
     Placing themselves in harm’s way
     Acting out dangerous behaviors

Dr. Dauvilliers has pointed out that “Adult sleepwalking is a potentially serious condition and the consequences of sleepwalking episodes should not be ignored.”
