What Does Irritability And Making Unintelligible Sounds In A Child Indicate?

My 10 1/2 year old son just woke up saying he had to go to the bathroom. He staggered getting up, headed that way, then went back into the bedroom, turned the light on, and started acting like he was pushing buttons on the wall. I was asking him what he was doing and he couldn t look at me, he also couldn t find the word he was looking for, he was just making sounds, when I asked if him if he was okay and touched his shoulder he got angry with me and SAID he had to go to the bathroom. He rushed in there and came back out a few minutes later, he turned the light off and went back to bed. This has ever happened to him before. He was also complaining before bed that he was sweating despite laying near an air conditioner and when I went to check him after laying down, he was cool to the touch with a (I think) normal heartbeat.

Hello,

I think, at present, there is nothing to be bewildered from your son's behavior as this is the first time. I had seen children do this kind of weird behavior when they are sound asleep. If repeats, do consult a neurologist for evaluation.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
