Inability to Remember Sleepwalking

Another major indicator of sleepwalking is the person's inability to remember what they did the night before during an episode. Most of the time, the individual learns about their sleepwalking behavior from a family member or sleep partner.²Suni, Eric. ‘Sleepwalking.’ Sleep Foundation, 14 August 2020, sleepfoundation.org/parasomnias/sleepwalking

This can make it challenging for those who live or sleep alone as they may not have anyone to tell them they're sleepwalking. They may not even realize they have an issue.
