Why when I awake I am covered in scratches and bruises?

Question

I sleep alone. Could it be that I fight in myself in my sleep.

Answer 1

Possibly. It is also possible that you may be sleepwalking: fit a cheap $5 alarm to your bedroom door, and set at bedtime.

Answer 2

you might be fighting yourself, or your place could be haunted.

Answer 3

i cant remember exactly, but one of my friends had this, i think it depends on what youre dreaming about, it may be phsychological, like emotional pain or something.. think about if theres anything that may be bothering you in your sleep, you may be clutching an area of your body very hard (like a leg or something, for security) and scratching yourself maybe because like you said, you may be fighting with yourself.. im no expert.. but my friend kept waking up with scratches all over herself..
