"Do you talk in your sleep? I do, and have all my life. Recently medical experts took a look at the &amp;quot;condition&amp;quot; and have word on when all that nighttime chatter may be bad for your health... How did you sleep last night? Did you talk in your sleep? In general, mild sleep-talking isn&amp;#x27;t cause for alarm (heck, I&amp;#x27;ve been doing it my entire life), but the experts over at WebMD warn that there are two cases when sleep-talking can be dangerous: *When talking is accompanied by shouting: If you chatter a little while sleeping (according to your roommates or guy), that&amp;#x27;s cool. But if your chatter turns to shouting or violent outbursts, like thrashing around in bed or kicking, you may have a REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD). *When talking is accompanied by sleep-walking and/or sleep-eating: Sleep-talking has been associated with other dangerous conditions that compel people to get out of bed at night and walk around and/or eat. For either of these, experts say it&amp;#x27;s important to visit with a sleep specialist to see what could be the cause, which may include emotional stress, certain medications, a mental health disorder or something else.
