I think I slept walked last night?!


Question: I think I slept walked last night?
Last night I think I slept walked. (I can only remember short phases of it) I started getting up, it felt like i was in a dream or something. Anyways I had to use the washroom I remember, so I continued on and sat down on the chair inside my bedroom. I PULLED my pants down, but then I somehow realized it wasn't the toilet lol, i don't remember much after that but I remember just waking up in my bed. I told my parents and they said they didn't lead me back to my bed.
Is there something to be concerned about here?
I am a teenage female. :) Thank you much appreciated!

Answers:

No. We call it sleepwalking but that give us a false impression. We are not actually asleep. Our brains simply haven't become active enough to record (as a memory) what we were up to in our nocturnal ramblings. People have been known to do all sorts of things while "asleep" like eat, cook clean, drive ect. They are fully capable to do these activities in relative safety but they have no memory of doing so.

I am a chronic sleep walker, have been since I was little, I'm now in my 30's. Other then finding myself locked outside my apartment or with mud up to my knees, I have suffered no ill effects.

Being a teen it is likely to just be a phase.
