Non vital information

Some non vital information. I think I have been sleep talking more lately than I usually do. I no exact proof simply because I sleep usually by myself. But lately every time I wake up my mouth is dry as if i had a cold and was sleeping with it open cause my nose was stuffy. But I'm not sick and I never slept with my mouth open. Unless I'm talking.

I'm extremely curious as to what I mumble about.

I found out last year for the first time in my life that I do sleep talk a lot. I always knew I did a little bit. But apparently a sleep talk almost three to four times a week. This due to the fact that I shared a bedroom for the first time since I was 5.

Why do people sleeptalk?

Somniloquy or sleep-talking is a parasomnia that refers to talking aloud in one's sleep. It can be quite loud, ranging from simple sounds to long speeches, and can occur many times during sleep. Listeners may or may not be able to understand what the person is saying.^[1]

Sleep-talking usually occurs during transitory arousals from NREM sleep, which is when the body does not move smoothly from one stage in NREM sleep to another, and they become partially aroused from sleep. Further it can also occur during REM sleep at which time it represents a motor breakthrough (see sleep paralysis) of dream speech, words spoken in a dream are spoken out loud.
