I talk in my sleep because I am somehow associating my dream with real life. I end up saying out loud what I say in my dream. Luckily no one's caught me on it.

well, i did talk during sleep recently. My sister said that i was crying and angry at the same time and it bothers her during her sleep. Im quite remember who i dreamt about. It is about my mom and I fought her during my sleep, yelling and screaming. I think it was one of the way that my body and my mind release stress and to get mad at the person that i couldnt get angry off.

When I talk in my sleep its usually because I'm stressed or getting sick. When I have a lot I'm dealing with that can be reflected in my sleep quality and behavior. But for some people its just a normal or random occurrence. :)

when you dream, sometimes your brain still thinks your awake so it connects what you're thinking to your mouth

Sleep talkingis a very common occurrence and is not usually considered a medical problem.Sleep talking usually occurs by itself and is most often harmless. There is no known way to reduce sleep talking. Avoiding stress and getting plenty of sleep might make you less likely to talk in your sleep.
