Chapter 5 has seemed to be a fairly popular chapter that has to do with sleep disorders. This particular topic took out to me because it pertains to my personal situation. According to my parents, I am a sleepwalker as well as a sleep talker. The book says that up to 30 percent of children have sleepwalked at least once. Some very dangerous things can happen while sleepwalking such as driving, jumping out windows and even in some cases, murder. My personal situation has not proven to be dangerous, but just somewhat messy. I have sleepwalked downstairs in our living room and what I must have unconsciously thought was a bathroom. To put this thing lightly, I made use of the facilities, in our living room. Fortunately, this happened only once, most likely due to the fact that I had to clean up my mess. Since I got to high school I have grown out of my sleepwalking phase and now, according to my roommate, I occasionally have sleep talking conversations that of course make no sense.
