Odd things you need to sleep?

Archive: 62 posts


Does anybody need something every single night when they sleep? For example, some people need complete darkness, others need a night light, or need to have the window open, or have some sounds/music playing through the night?

I need sound, if there's no sound my mind doesn't switch off and I start thinking about things that depress me, death etc. Music or TV will do.

I know some people like to hear the sound of rain playing, or ocean waves etc.

Could be anything really, do you have something like that?

I need background noise, and I'm relieved to know that's not strange (: (usually like a TV or a fan'll do)
I also usually need a small amount of light too?

In my bed I can only ever get to sleep when I'm facing to the right.

Any other bed, anywhere else it doesn't matter.

I woke up this morning with 'Fiction' playing on my iPod because i had the Avenged Sevenfold album on repeat. That was pretty sad, waking up hearing Jimmy singing about death and all... A wierd experience in all honesty. It had to be that song that was on >_>2010-07-24 20:20:00

I need it really dark, and I always need a couple blankets.

I also like having a cat lay on me.

And I like sleeping in waterbeds, except when I'm in a beach house.

I also like a light within reach of my bed.

I, too, need sound to sleep. I generally sleep with a fan on and/or fall asleep to the TV. If it's too quiet, I become very aware of the lack of sound and get all uncomfortable. So, yeah... if I ever sleep over at your house, you better have a spare fan for me. 2010-07-25 04:54:00

Nah - I've got one. He's a battered old thing but means a lot to me because my girlfriend gave it to me, and it was her teddy when she was younger, so its always perched up by my bed - and it's not childish! Everyone's got a ted somewhere...

Oh, and remind me never to sleep over at MrSC's house - he sounds like a creepy host...

I do like to have family guy playing in the background, the problem is that If I play family guy It usually takes 2 episodes to get to sleep, and I am thinking to myself "God its been 40 minutes.

Complete silence. I can never get to sleep with my cat purring.
I don't mind rain though.
And no lights! If my laptop is plugged in, the little light drives me crazy, so I have to unplug it.

A large cup 'o coffee and H2G2 playing on my cell phone.

I have found doing this I have the most amazingly vivid and warped dreams. I may as well be on lithium.

I need the room to be ice cold before I can fall asleep... if I'm too warm, I absolutely cannot sleep.

That, and that only my stomach is covered with a blanket. Though that's usually optional, considering that I can't sleep with a blanket on in the first place since I overheat.

Here's a thing I need to NOT have so I can sleep. Fireworks and trail bikes Seriously, who needs to set off fireworks 20m from my room at 11:00pm on a Sunday And ride a bike at midnight!!! Then all the dogs are barking. I have had better sleeps on benches while it was windy and raining.2010-07-26 07:25:00

I need the TV on. I struggle to fall asleep intentionly, it just happens.......And I can't just think up an episode of Bear Grylls: Born survivor can I?
I sleep at incredibly late times and if I am aware of any bug/insect in my room, I can't sleep at all.

A cold pillow and a strong, cool breeze through my room. Seriously, all these humid, moist summer nights are starting to peave me off from discomfort.

I always prefered winter.

I need to use something to cover myself, except when it's REALLY hot.
I sleep easier if it's raining outside.
I like to sleep with air conditioning, the noise it makes is really relaxing! (no sarcasm )
