Lol, the author finally did go for "fictional doctor's bullshit logic". I already said a realistic doctor would not only give him med for his sleepwalking or sleeping pills to knock him out at night, but tell him to try locking his bedroom door at night, laying off the booze, and starting psychological therapy, etc, and basically anything else rather than directly tell him to "have someone watch over you". While a realistic doctor would certainly say it's better to have a roommate than live alone, they wouldn't do something so IDIOTIC as practically enforce sleep deprivation on a "watcher" third person, since that person would need to stay awake to "keep watch". Why do that when the doctor can just prescribe that the patient take sleeping pills, or any type of medication that can prevent sleepwalking, before that? Common sense tells you the other person needs their sleep too, and can't keep watching over you for nights on end, because depriving others from their rest isn't a real solution, and sleep deprivation can turn into a serious health and *mental* problem.
