    I was thinking the other night about some weird or rather odd things I do in order to sleep or preparing for sleep.

    1. My arms have to be under the covers (do not like my arms on top of the covers while I sleep.

    2. I turn the heat up on crump, bury myself in blankets and then turn my fan on.

    3. No matter what season it is, I have to sleep with some kind of blanket. It can be 100° outside, I need cover.

    4. Even though it makes me get up, I have to drink one tall, cold glass of water before bed.

    What are some of your sleep habits/rituals?

    I run the A/C and sleep under a light blanket. (I know, not saving the planet, but maybe make up for it by not owning a car and biking everywhere.) I too need my arms under the blanket.

    I have to have the A/C running to drown out little noises. Even when it gets cold here I run the A/C fan.

    I am very sensitive to noise and sometimes have to wear earplugs to keep out the slightest noises from my neighbors. They irritate my ears but I get to sleep. I have a light set up on a timer because the earplugs keep the alarm from waking me.

    I need some kind of cover to. IDK why; it's not to keep me cool.

    It needs to be dark. I can take the light from the clock if it's just lit numbers, but solid light makes me nuts(ie some clock radios, lights, the sun, the moon). It needs to be dark.

    It needs to be cool so I don't sweat to death under the covers. Razz

    I need tolerable noises. I hate fan motors but I don't typically mind the AC unless it starts rattling. FORGIVENESS MAN I don't like the sounds of the house at night so I need my music on.

    I think that's it.

    For as long as I can remember, I have to have my feet on the bed and not so much as the tips of my toes hanging over. My adult rational mind knows that nobody is under my bed, but it was a childhood thing that never left. Pretty strange.

    In the last few years, I have a very hard time sleeping without a window that is uncovered by drapes. I have only sheer window coverings in my room so I am used to looking out as I fall asleep. I still can fall asleep if windows are covered, but it is much more difficult.

    I have to have my feet wrapped in the blanket or at least touching it, I sleep with my vellux blanket and nothing else

    I sleep on my side so I have to have a pillow to hug

    I don't like being hot under the covers so sometimes I throw it off and just have my feet wrapped in it.

    The room has to be cool not hot so I keep my thermostat down to like 66-68.


    Like FM I don't like any light shining, the light from my DVR illuminates and sometimes I cover it up, also the light from my modem I have something in front of it. I bought a new radio alarm clock once and it was blue, freaked me out in the dark cause it lit up the room, I had to cover it with a pillow and returned it the next day for a red LED display which gives off no light.

    I can be a restless sleeper sometimes, waking up several times and sometimes I get up and go in the living room and sleep in the recliner but if my feet are not covered, I can't sleep.

    The darkness is thing is true for me too. When I moved into my house, the bedrooms all had blinds. For the first year, I slept very uncomfortably because in the morning I would assaulted by sunlight. Finally I put in thick shades.

    I am literally laughing at that one! Yeah, "at least"!! Everybody knows that crestfallen means you feel as if you are morphing into a disgruntled character from Falcon Crest.

    I have to sleep with the tv on because I'm afraid I'll hear and see ghosts if I don't. Go ahead and laugh but I've tried to sleep without it and I can't!

    That's so true, I need to do that too sometimes!


    Here are some of my other sleep habits:

    1. I always use the bathroom before I go to bed, so I'm all "cleaned out" and don't have to use the bathroom during the night.

    2. Put lotion on my hands so that I'm not woken up by dry, cracked skin.

    3. Put Chapstick on my lips (which I use frequently anyway) so I am not awakened by dry lips.

    It has to be pitch black in the room....I can't tolerate any light at all. I have to have 2 blankets. Every inch of my body (save my head) has to be covered. The room has to be warm. The bed has to vibrate....seriously....I tie my portable fan to bed and turn it on to give off a bed vibration, it just relaxes me. I need 3 pillows (1 for my head, 1 to hug and 1 propped up against the side of my back.) And finally, I gotta have a cum rag.

    I did see that! I'm actually really interested in the paranormal and used to be a member of a now defunct group called WARP that did paranormal investigations. I always try to face my fears :biggrin:
