tumblr screenshot that reads:

Cemeterything: i appreciate the imagery of sleeping with a weapon under your pillow but with my sleeping habits that thing is going to need a seatbelt to stay put where i left it

Cemetarything: going to bed with a gun under my pillow and when i wake up the next morning i've somehow managed to perfectly disassemble it and lay out the parts neatly beside me with my movements while unconscious

Some vets I knew with PTSD and sleepwalking would do things like that. One guy would try tying himself to noisemakers or restrain himself securely, and his sleepwalking self would undo those safeguards, do mischief and then come back and re-secure himself, but do it wrong so he knew he was up and moving in the night.

when you wake up and your blanket is somehow missing

My favourite: when you wake up but your bed is somehow missing. I haven't been sleepwalking for ages but one time I woke up on a pile of cardboard when I was staying at my friend parents. I was in another floor also, in a section of their house I had never been. That was really confusing place to wake up. I even had carried my blanket with me downstairs.
