    Once we got a king sized bed we no longer worried about me waking up swinging and kicking. I can’t even reach that far!

    So far, I’ve managed to dodge the nightmares - other than a recurring one that I’ve somehow forgotten to show up for 10th grade final exams. True (weird, I know); that one probably has everything to do with Algebra, and nothing to do with dopamine. Have had a few episodes of acting out dreams, mostly moving my legs to step up dream stairs.

    I used to have stress or nightmare dreams about being in the navy or trying to get back into service. The best thing I ever did was try to show my wife a decommissioned ship. I was so unsteady on my feet and afraid of falling and hurting myself, I knew I’d never be able to serve again. 🙃 Good and bad (hard) reality check. I can still say I had the honor and privilege of serving our great nation and my fellow Americans 🇺🇸🌊 ⚓️

    I had scary vivid dreams A LOT before getting on sinemet. I still have crazy dreams and often wake myself up talking or making a movement. The sleep paralysis is the worst!

    Maybe you should record yourself when you sleep talk. It would probably be an interesting conversation!😆

    I'm blessed with good sleep. I have occasional bad dreams. The anxiety type. Used to be about high school. Now it's about the job I retired from. My equipment doesn't work and I don't know any of my coworkers. The most I do is whimper in my sleep. I am on Sinemet. I've got that album but I think I like Nightmare 2 better.

    I’ve been a vivid dreamer all my life. I started acting out in the late 90s. Around 2004, I threw myself off my bed a couple of times. I’ve had trouble sleeping for decades. I still have strange dreams and talk in my sleep.

I had a knee replacement surgery last Nov and that was the most brutal recovery I've ever had Having Parkinson's made it longer and slower but I'm glad I did it.
