Signs of Substance Abuse: What Causes You to Sleep Talk?

Question by Kevin Turner: What causes you to sleep talk?
Recently, my mom has tried waking me up from naps. But when she wakes me up; I’m in the middle of my dream, and I’m still asleep. But I’m still able to know what’s going on around me. So when my mom wakes me up, and start shouting gibberish from my dream and start moving around my room like I was doing in my dream. Within a few minutes, I come to my senses and realize that I’m sleep talking / sleep walking, and notice my family laughing at me for my sleep talking / sleep walking.

What causes this? Is there any way to prevent it?

Sleep talking usually occurs by itself and is most often harmless. However, in some cases, it might be a sign of a more serious sleep disorder or health condition.

REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) and sleep terrors are two types of sleep disorders that cause some people to shout during sleep. Sleep terrors, also called night terrors, usually involve frightening screams, thrashing, and kicking. It’s hard to wake someone having a sleep terror. Children with sleep terrors usually sleep talk and sleepwalk.

People with RBD yell, shout, grunt, and act out their dreams, often violently.

Sleep talking can also occur with sleepwalking and nocturnal sleep-related eating disorder(NS-RED), a condition in which a person eats while asleep.

Other things that can cause sleep talking include:

certain medications
emotional stress
fever
mental health disorder
substance abuse”
