I am married to a sleep walker.He has never hurt himself or anyone else.If you have hurt yourself and are alone at night,you owe it to your son to have yourself evaluated.You could cause harm to him or to yourself.Sometimes,drugs are not used,if you don't know what your options are,you'll never know what is available to you.Not all drugs are bad,if you need meds to help you,that is not wrong.Are you opposed to medication for religious reasons?If not,chemicals are in just about everything we use that is manufactured.So you are putting chemicals into your body whether you know it or not.Please go see a sleep specialist and get a full sleep study.If you choose not to go through with the treatment plan,at least you know what your choices are.Best of luck to you!Patty

Thanks for the advice patty. I will be going to the doctor for my yearly in a week, so I plan to ask her then.
To answer your question about medicine, I had a very bad reaction to a pennicillian related drug when I was young. Since then i've been lucky enough to make it without so much as an advil. I even delievered my son without any pain relievers.
Thanks again!
