Yeah they are called Parasomnia Disorders one of the categories is Arousal Disorders this is where you are still in a sleep like state but yet awake enough to preform complex tasks such as sexual activities, sometimes violent behaviors occur, driving a car, if you are having problems with this you will need to seek the help of a sleep specialist you can be referred by you primary care physician or psychiatrist if you are already seeing one if you are not I would recommend it they can prescribe you a medication first to try to help you not sleepwalk and then they will determine if you need to seek a specialist which will do tests to determine exactly what is happening they are called sleep studies.

There is a condition commonly referred to as sleepwalking. Other sleep disorders include sleep apnea, in which the sleeping person suffers frequent, multiple "awakenings" due to the heart and breathing being stopped; narcolepsy, most commonly recognized by the person falling asleep while watching even an exciting movie, while driving, while working, while having sex, while running even! With this condition, no matter how much sleep the victim gets, he/she still falls asleep suddenly, typically in less time than an eyeblink.
But, yes, sleepwalking is real, to include doing all kinds of things. Some people even go to their garage, get into their car, drive somewhere, come back and go back to bed and not even realize they did such a thing!

Its called sleepjerking, and its very serious...

Ha ha! No but seriously, I don't think there's anything where you actually physically "act out" with another partner while sleeping. You may have what is known as a "wet dream" where you get excited while sleeping but you'll probably remember those.

1-do not drink alcoholic drinks or cofee or tea before sleeping
2-you may drink a glass of warm milk before sleping, it does really help!
3-sleeping pills do not help you in long term!,in some cases it even causes addiction! so you won't be able to sleep without them
4-try to empy your mind,do not think of tomorrow or yesterday, you may do this by countig down from a high number like 1000 in your mind, counting sheeps!!!!! or etc
5-daily stress causes sleeping diorders so try to avoid stressing factors at your work place
5-consult a doctor!
