responses and comments:
most of the time, i turn off the tv when i go to sleep and leaving the radio or mp3 turned on. it's because music helps me to sleep and to feel a bit relaxed. and usually i think of the things to do for the next day before i go to sleep making sure that everything's ready. i also think about my family and friends... [princesskhym]
i bet you must have good dreams with soft music as background......nice.. thanks. [singlepixel]
i can sleep anywhere, anyway when im sleepy. I dont want a radio or a televison ON when i sleep (its a waste of energy and money). Of course i can sleep with a hungry stomach. [prEttyNbluE]
i agree with you! [singlepixel]
Thats a lot of questions!:) when going to bed I turn off the radio or the TV, there was a time when I could sleep with them on, but as I began to work more in the day time I realized that sleeping with any noise or sound won't let my brain rest well. we think we do hot heat anything while sleeping, but it's not true - our brain receive all the information it can. About the hungry stomach - I usually drink a tea half an hour before going to bed - eating late is not so good for health. How fast? it depends what I an imagining / thinking before. Sometimes I just don't get to think of anything cause I'm too tired. [tanyusha]
yeah, each person differs individually when it comes to sleeping. If I fall asleep, that's it - no one can wake me up even with a loud bang!...lol.. thanks tanyusha! [singlepixel]
1. radio on :) 2. television off :D 3. i still imagine the sinking boat with Sharks around. lol! 4. done this many times, when i'm upset.. :P 5. very slow, it's like falling in slow motion.. :) [jdpartosa]
ha ha ha... maybe i should teach you some monkey steps.. later we go TARZAN in the jungle! Go get your stuff ready, we'll be away for two weeks! [singlepixel]
Given the choice, I would like to turn on my transistor/radio to listen to some soft music, instead of watching TV. Untill something extra ordinary is there, I do not enjoy watching TV. while lying for sleep, I think about the day's entire activites and remember happy moments of the day. It is not possible for me to fall asleep with hungry stomach. I fall asleep within 5-10 minutes and my partner tells me you are such a bad person, that you immediately fall asleep. LOL! Have a nice day! [dpk262006]
Thanks so much for your wishes!:):) Have a great day! [dpk262006]
I turn on the t.v I usually go to sleep to a movie.I couldn't fall a sleep on an empty stomach.I don't imagine anything before I go to sleep but I do dream in color.It all depends on my day how fast I fall asleep.If it was a long day, I fall asleep quickly. But if it was a slow day,I fall asleep a little slower. [sarahruthbeth22]
It's like a VCD! -it's in color -it can be fast -it can be slow Wonderful!...lol.. thanks Sarah, have a nice day..:) [singlepixel]
when its time to go to bed I am most of the time so tired that I fall asleep within minutes. Normally not with a hungry stomach, and most of the time thinking how great it is this weekday is over (when it was one). [book1962]
you're very lucky to fall asleep that fast. i have to count 'sheeps' using a calculator before falling asleep!...lol... thanks Book!hugs! [singlepixel]
I turn on the TV while going to bed. And I esily fall asleep. [erickrubio]
i assume the TV is turned on all night till morning. (or someone is turning it off for you) thanks eric! [singlepixel]
Hello Steven! Me sleeping? hahahhahhahhahah That would be nice, wouldn't it? Eh, well, if it was a normal scenario, I may watch the telly for a bit, or listen to some nice music, but mostly I think I would love to be in the arms of someone I love and fall asleep that way, dreaming of nicey thoughts...however, when I do eventually fall asleep as it is now, I just think of my son so far away and wonder if he is safe and alright and call him to make sure he is and then I can sleep for a few hours and then get up and start typing on myLot and my other stuff I have to do on here, and have a cup of tea and blah blah blah LOL Regards RozAnn Your Friend TheHairDresser [TheHairDresser]
Nice.....tea is a very refreshing drink, i like it hot! [singlepixel]
1. I do not use any radio set these days.It is so noisy, we have AM transmission here. 2.Yes, I turn on the TV and watch my favorite serials till I go to sleep. 3.I pray and thank God for granting me an additional day. 4.No, dear never. 5.Very fast. Thanks, ks. [kalyani2007]
1- i thought you can turn it on at very low volume. anyway, i turn it off if i go to sleep.:) 2- i bet you have an "off" timer for your TV set. 3- very good! 4- good 5- you're lucky. some aren't very. thanks dear!:) [singlepixel]
Well I'm one of these fortunate people who can sleep anytime, anyplace, anywhere! UI've never suffered from insomnia in my life - so literally I am out like a light within 2 or 2 minutes of going to bed, and never wake up until ther alarm gets me up in the morning! I am always rushing aroud - full time job, lots of commuting in central London, a house to run, 6 cats, housework, gardening, and a load of hobbies, - so by the time I go to bed nothing in the world could keep me awake! I certainly wouldn't want TV in the bedroom - I don't watch it much anyway - and it would annoy the hell out of me when I was in bed. By the way - I have also been known to fall asleep at a noisy AC/DC rock concert, at work in my tea-break, regularly on the train to and from the office, and on every train/bus/flight I've ever taken! LOL! [rosie_123]
you're so lucky to fall asleep easily. But!..." I have also been known to fall asleep at a noisy AC/DC rock concert, at work in my tea-break, regularly on the train to and from the office, and on every train/bus/flight I've ever taken!.." I think it's a dangerous symptom. what do you think? Thanks Rosie. Sleep well on bed okay, not on a moving train-you might miss your destination...lol..:) [singlepixel]
I have a hard time falling asleep at night and I can't sleep with noise on at all my husband likes to fall asleep with the tv on and set the sleep timer but it keeps me awaks I have to have it quit and really dark. [hip2bemom]
that's just too bad. you need to tell him this problem or you'll get very sick sooner or later and nobody will prepare meal for him. -need to tell him to be more considerate. thanks for sharing hip2! [singlepixel]
Hello singlepixel I like absolute silence when I go to sleep. I do not have on any music, nor do I have on the television. I also generally do not think about anything as I fall asleep. When I feel sleep coming on me, I turn off the light, and I close my eyes and sleep almost immediately. Sometimes, when I am hungry, I still go to sleep. I don't like to eat right before my slumber. [VoteforPedro]
hello Pedro!(i'll vote for you..lol..) you sound like a robot(about going to sleep). but I'd still believe you coz' everyone is unique. And you can stand those hunger even before going to sleep. I just can't. you're really ...unique. [singlepixel]
Hiya Pixel, I read somewhere that it takes the average person 7 minutes minimum to fall asleep. My husband can break that record though! LOL He can be asleep in just a couple of minutes, and I can too if Im REALLY tired. We usually leave the tv on with the timer set to shut it off after an hour or so. Im usually asleep by then because I have no idea that it goes off. I just try and not think about worriful things, I try to listen to the tv or listen to the fan to go to sleep. Sometimes I just like it to be really quiet. I def cant fall asleep with a hungry tummy! I have to get up and eat something to stop it from growling and cramping. Bay xx [BayleighGray]
hey...relax! smile....just keep on smiling. thanks. [singlepixel]
nopes...i cannot go to sleep with a craving stomach.....i either eat sumthng or drink cold milk and then doze off........ byes tc [darshakk]
he he he...that's me at times...except for that cold milk. i'd have warm milk. [singlepixel]
First I use the bathroom, brush my teeth and so on. The I get my dog ready for bed by making sure he has done all he needs to do outside. Then I turn on the tv and jump under the covers, I snuggle up to my dog and watch TVLand sometimes I let it run all night and sometimes I will turn it off just before I drift off to sleep. Depending on how tired I am I usually fall asleep in about 20 minutes. [Amberina]
very natural... and you have great company too! Dogs are just great. they're very loyal. Thanks Amber! [singlepixel]
Hello singlepixel. I hope that you are well today and have had a good night's rest. I do not like to have on anything when I'm sleeping except for a fan. I'm not talking about my adoring fans, but an electric fan, although I've turned on more than one adoring fan in the bed, hehe. I do not like to have on the television, or the radio or anything other than the fan. I usually fall asleep immediately after I turn off the light. I usually read for a bit, get weary, turn off the light, and snooze, without a thought of anything else prior to my snoozing. If I am hungry, all the better. I still sleep. Every once in a while, however, I will get very thirsty, and I must get up to quench my thirst when this happens. [Transdisc]
ha ha ha...you guys are funny! let me be your fan. ha ha ha.. I have to get some food for my hungry tummy and 'turn on' my fan before going to bed...ha ha.. [singlepixel]
I like to have music on when I sleep sometimes, especially if I'm having a hard time falling asleep. I also like those "nature sounds" CDs and such. I intentionally start a "story" in my head before I go to sleep, in hopes that it will become my dream. After years of practice with lucid dreaming, it usually works. I continue my story even after I'm asleep, which leads to pleasant dreams for at least the first part of the night. I don't sleep well if I'm hungry. So I eat before I sleep if I am hungry. I'll even get up in the middle of the night to eat if I wake up hungry. I sometimes fall asleep right away, but sometimes it takes longer. Depends on how stressed out I am, I guess. [lecanis]
that's a lot of hard work my friend. how did you manage to do that all these years? but creative too. [singlepixel]
I watch T.V while laying in bed, it help me to sleep. Then I will set the timer so the TV will automatically turn off after 30 minutes. T.V helps me alot, to stop imaging being visited my a dead relative. And i seldom sleep with empty stomach. I make sure that am not hungry when I sleep. If am tired sometimes in just 3 minutes am already asleep. Depends if depressed, I usually cant sleep. [ggaaiill]
i hope you don't get depressed all the time. hungry stomach can be really nasty when it's time for some sleep- it makes you uncomfortable. [singlepixel]
Do you turn on the radio while sleeping/going to bed? No I do not. How about the television? I don't turn it on either. What do you imagining/thinking before going to bed/sleep? Different things like frogs, lizards, aliens, time travel and etc. Can you fall asleep with a hungry stomach? Yes but it takes longer than with a full stomach. How fast do you think you fall asleep? I say it takes me an hour or two. [spiderlizard22]
you really like reptiles - is it the reason for your username? i mean, that's cool! there is one time when i couldn't sleep for more than 3 hours. maybe my brain was on 'strike'....lol... [singlepixel]
No I cant sleep with the radio on or the tv or any lights.LOL And I cant fall asleep when Im hungry. I always must have a full belly.LOL Or a glass of nice cold milk.LOL It really doesnt take me too long to fall into a nice peaceful sleep. [TerryZ]
wonderful...that's almost me sometimes except for that cold milk part. I always prefer warm milk. [singlepixel]
Hi!I turn the t.v on in the bedroom to listen to the music max channel with easy listening songs.It helps me to relax and just before falling asleep i turn it off.Oh boy there are many things i like to imagine,ha,ha,sometimes of other nice looking guys and romance,funny moments with my daughter and relizing how much i love her(sigh)and things that might have to be done the next day.I have to eat something small before going to bed like toast or cup a soup.If i do not eat something,i will wake up in the night with hunger feelings.I fall asleep quite fast because im worn out from the day or on here too long,lol.:) [peanutjar]
ha ha .. don't worry, it's just a dream.:) [singlepixel]
I've been sleeping with the TV for years so I can't imagine sleeping without it, and it has to be loud enough for me to hear what's being said or it will just drive me crazy as I'll try to hear it. My mind is usually going in a dozen different directions, depending on my day, that's why I need the TV as a distraction. I can fall asleep with a hungry stomach and sometimes when I do I'm no longer hungry when I wake up. Since I have arthritis, back problems and restless leg syndrome sometimes it seems to take me forever to fall asleep, in fact I often get back up for awhile after turning in. I take medication to help me sleep sometimes but I hate to take it all the time. Annie [anniepa]
i'm sorry annie. just take care. remember to take your medication and drink a lot of water. (you're on medication so, you need water as medium to clean those waste) [singlepixel]
I like to turn on the TV before I go to sleep, the voices on the TV make me sleepy, then someone like my children or maid would just turn it off when I'm already sleeping. When there's nobody to turn it of, it stays on until midnight or dawn until I wake up to turn it off, then I go back to sleep ^_^ [vissy10]
it has become automatic around the house, eh? thanks you & take care.:) [singlepixel]
It's easier for me to fall asleep when there is a tv or a radion playing. Normally, I pray the rosary when there is not tv or a radio, until I fell asleep. I can't sleep easily like others. But I can sleep with an empty stomach. [dhedows118]
not a problem for the praying mind! & may God bless you. [singlepixel]
I usually turn off the TV before going to bed. I like to listen to the radio but since my husband can't sleep with music on, so what i did is I listen to my Ipod. The next day i just found it under my pillow or wherever. I listen to my favorite music before going to bed until I fall asleep. It depends on what happened on that day, I could think whatever. Sometimes, my family in the Philippines. My friends... [mbrown81]
that's good to think of others before bedtime. i think it's better to think real people than 'unreal' people (TV) at this time. TQ. [singlepixel]
Well I used to do so but no more. Even then ,it was only in very rare instances that I forgot to turn off the TV or Radio . Also , I remember one time last year when I was so tired in the evening that I went off to sleep without having my Dinner. [ptrikha1]
that happened to me once!..lol...mmm more, like a few times in the past.:) [singlepixel]
There are times I turned the mp3 on,those were the nights taht I couldn't sleep..but on regulard nights I sleep without anything,no Tv,no music and no lights too. with a hungry stomach? now that's a different thing..LOL I cannot sleep when my tummy is empty..:) [cefaz_21]
Same here my dear! same here!...lol.. [singlepixel]
yeah body switches off.so everything goes blank from there.dreams lot for me.soi think it takes 2 minutes.nope no hungered stomachs for me i aint done anything wrong to go hungry.not tv after 10:00 pm-off [ssf12ster]
that's right buddy! we should limit our bodies to work and have some regular rest.. and make sure the 'tank' ain't empty!..:) [singlepixel]
Before going to bed I turn on the TV and set the time for 30 min then Ill sleep....I enjoy the light of TV before going to sleep ...i dont watched I just turn it on have my good night sleep. [gem3072001]
and also as a 'tool' to determine how long you fall asleep, right?(within 30 minutes for sure) . I used to do that in the past. [singlepixel]
