Sleepwalker Links

I have been asked many times to provide links to more information. Unfortunately, there is a serious lack of practical information on sleepwalking in adults.
There are really only two types of online information about sleepwalking
Neither one I find is very helpful. If you were to run a standard search engine on "sleepwalking" or "somnambulism", about 300+ pages come up, but very few of them actually contain any useful information. And the ones that do, all desplay the exact same medical text, which I can only guess is out of a diagnostic reference book.

I have dug through many sites, and am posting the ones I feel are most informative.


  1. Medical / Technical Descriptions
    1. helpmesleep.com
    2. Somnambulism - by Fumiko Konno A university paper discussing sleep stages and sleepwalking.
    3. slightly more approachable, drkoop.com
    4. slightly more approachable, thinkquest.org
  2. Personal, Story-Like Experience
    1. NY Times Article
    2. Fox News
  3. Sleepwalking in Children
    1. from All Kids.org More descriptions with some advice on how to deal
    2. webpost.net
    3. Sleepwalking - by Marion Howard A little more technical, but still approachable. Additional links at the bottom of page.
  4. Info Regarding the "sleepwalking murder" 1997 (I do not believe this was a real case of sleepwalking, but dont get me stared. More old wives tales, i say!)
    1. looksmart.com guide
    2. Sleepwalking - Insanity or Automatism A rather lengthy law paper discussing accountability of crimes occuring durring sleep. Interesting, but very technical
    3. Somnambulism - Sane or Insane Automatism? More legal issues from Canada this time.
  1. Other Online Communities
    1. Night Terror Resource center Some information regarding medications for sleepwalking, plus additional info -- follow side navigation bar
    2. Talk About Sleep Patient stories, info, message boards, links. This is a new community, so currently not a lot of data.

Please email me if you know of a great sleepwalking site, or if you also keep an online diary of your experiences. I'll be happy to post them.
