If you're having lucid dreams, sure.

Otherwise, if you have nightmares or something a lot, you're probably better off.

Yeah, but sometimes I get a worn-out feeling after I wake from a lucid dream. Not sure why that is, but it could be from shuffling around a lot in bed.

I used to work with a girl who had what's called Night Terrors, which included not just sleepwalking, but wandering from room to room, going outside, and talking in her sleep. It's so bad for her that she has to be locked in her room every night. She's been in and out of those sleep labs for years. She works as an Executive Assistant like I do, and is very normal during the day. She says it doesn't happen every night, just a few times per week. She cannot be alone at night, someone must always be around. What a scary/sad way to live, IMO. The good thing is that she remembers little or none of them and has to be told by loved ones if she had another episode.
