The Sleep Thread

[Guest]

I have a strict sleep schedule. In bed by 9, asleep by 10, up at 5. I don't sleep too uncomfortably but sometimes I do have some rough nights. I found elevating my bed fairly high helps me a bit. You need a sort of step-hop to get into my bed, heh heh.

I have no trouble sleeping, it only takes me about 2 minutes (maybe longer) to lose conscious (I only sleep when I'm tired, I never force myself to sleep.), now getting up is different. Unless someone is waking me up or I have an alarm I go through a constant state of waking up and falling asleep until I realize what time it is, I try not to sleep pass 9. I'm a pretty light sleeper as well, if something tries to wake me up I'm on my feet just like that. As for what I dream of... it varies depending on what I was doing/thinking of before falling asleep. A few nights back I had a dream I was a Stormtrooper. And a few weeks back I had a dream I was featured on one of my favorite YouTuber's channel. Though majority of the time I forget what I was dreaming of.

It only takes me a little while to fall asleep, and I'm not including the time I spend on my phone in bed before decided to actually go to bed. I've complied a list of videos by Devon Tracey that don't have loud music in them and listen to them while I sleep, I play the first video, hit shuffle, then next to select a random video. Said playlist can be located here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqDqwzuq2WhS1V_cJbROUI8C5RrdPYO6J

i go to sleep whenever i feel like it but have been trying to go back to my regular sleep schedule.

I'm everything except a heavy sleeper. I once woke up because someone opened a door, while that door is two stares down through another door, kitchen and living room. I have a hard time falling asleep and I dream mostly about fantasy stories I came up with myself.

It takes me anywhere from 45 minutes to four hours to fall asleep, it usually depends on my mood.  Some nights are better than others.

I usually fall asleep in under 30 minutes. I am a fairly heavy sleeper, but I cannot sleep if there is too much noise.

Generally it takes me from 30-120 minutes to drift off. The longer nights can be frustrating but I don't mind too much as long as it's tranquil

[SoberStarlight 906]

Without my phone? Eh... 15-20 minutes

With my phone (especially on weekends)? Like 2 hours...

I sleep like a dead guy too. No alarms really work on me... This is why I have to go to bed really early most times to get up early.

I don't fall asleep quickly. I can lay there for up to an hour before I finally drift off. Unless I had an especially busy day or my anxiety is being a pain, in which case I am mentally drained and fall asleep rather quickly.

Once I do get to sleep, I can usually sleep between 6 and 10 hours, depending on whether or not I have classes in the morning.

I usually fall asleep very quickly but any little noise will usually snap me out of it. I need white noise to sleep and I like the room temperature to be cold. I NEVER use an alarm clock. I hate those vile pieces of noisy crap. I wake up according to my own mental clock, usually within minutes of when I want to. 

[LunarThunder 373]

I usually try to go sleep at 22:00 - 00:00, but it takes from 1 to 4h to fall sleep...last night I couldn't sleep before 5AM >w<

 

On school mornings I use alarm clock but usually wake up 15 min before I have to wake up. Also sometimes I wake up in the middle of night.

Due to my line of work I usually sleep when everyone's awake but I get my 8 hours with a small nap if I can get away for a few minutes.

[EpicEnergy 23,224]

I usually have no white noise when I fall asleep, unless it is taking me a very long time to fall asleep. It normally takes me 15-30 minutes to fall asleep.

[IronM17 5,399]

It is always different. Sometimes, I have such a heavy sleep that I oversleep a thunderstorm, and sometimes, I woke up by a small singing bird. But usually, it is something between both. I also need often a little bit time to fall asleep. What I also need is darkness, no noises and also cool temperatures.

[Early Sunsets 2,107]

I've gotten the time it takes me to fall asleep down to about an hour to an hour and a half, though there are still some nights where it can take longer than two (but they're getting a little less frequent). Ten hours of sleep is normal for me, which is annoying because I hate sleeping. It's a lot of time spent doing absolutely nothing, but if you don't do it you feel like garbage and can't focus on anything.

Also, I have a history of sleeping through alarms, even with the volume cranked all the way up. That mostly only happens if I haven't been getting enough sleep, though.
