Talking gibberish in his sleep

My DW would do that intermittently.

I get that too. Sometimes when she is restless she will wake me about once an hour to talk for a little while, too, but then she makes sense, usually.

My DW does it also. When I ask her what she said she says, in perfect english, that she can't remember.

My DW does this in her sleep and also during the day. It is so hard and unfortunately not going to get any better

My DH started this last Saturday night and it lasted 3 nights. Now he is back to sleeping more and less of the of the wall talking. In retrospect, a head cold was going around the family and he had complained twice of a headache during that time. I’m assuming it was the head cold that triggered this odd behavior.
He has had a similar crazy reaction after giving him Melatonin at bedtime. My research showed this can be a side affect for persons with dementia taking Melatonin. Symptoms were gone once I stopped. He had 3 tablets over a week’s time period.
I’m glad the crazy, off the wall, all night, one sided conversations are very diminished now. He was also hallucinating, seeing people and things coming in and out of the room. He also saw a face at the end of the bed looking at him. When I turned on the light he said he knows its not there but it was. In the dark, he was also reaching out for all the lights, wondering what they were. Day and night he would search for something but he couldn’t remember what it was. Once he said, “The thing I want to look for keeps disappearing.” (My daughter loved that quote.😉). That behavior is back to rarely now.
I’m not looking forward to if/when this behavior takes a forefront. I prefer the sleeping mostly.
Thank you again for all the insight and knowledge, compassion and understanding on this Alz group chat. I have learned so much to help me through the stages and to help prepare what may happen in the future.

hubby talks in his sleep as well, mostly gibberish. I let him. I sleep separately because for the most part, he does sleep the night through, I don’t. And to not bother him with a lamp or watching a movie I stay in a separate bedroom. I’ve had back surgery and cataract surgery the past 3 to 4 years so slept separately at that point because I didn’t want to get hit in the face or the back, as he sometimes has done without realizing it. So I’ve just let everything continue, and for the time being it works.
