How do you sleep? Do you need a paramount gong to wake you? Or do you wake up when someone starts a car 3 streets away?

Heavy need two alarms to get me up. Can't budge me.

But I've been conditioned for 40years to hear everything around my house and will rise out of bed the moment I here something out of place.

Mental!!

Same here it was quite bad when I let the people I shared with host their friend in my room while I slept on the sofa.In the room just besides the front door.

I volunteered and they didn’t want to say no.They regretted it

Depends on what time I go to bed or if I nod off beforehand. Late to bed without nodding off is best for me.

At the moment I'm a 'no sleeper'

Usually I flit between light most days and eventually a heavy snooze to catch up.

But been struggling to switch my brain off of late.

All depends if I've taken my medication or if something is hurting to stop me sleeping soundly.

Some mornings I don't here my son go to work, some mornings I hear everything from him walking downstairs to the front door closing.

Depends on so many things.

If I’m alone, I’m a light sleeper and everything wakes me.

If I’m sleeping with a partner, intertwined with them, nothing wakes me.

If I’m sleeping with one of my partners, and not directly on them, I will wake up often and have nightmares too.

On business trips, I’m a light sleeper.

Holidays abroad I can be a deep sleeper.

Right now, I’m a sleepless sleeper as I struggle to go to sleep.

Same! I struggle to switch off my brain and actually get to sleep. I hear every little noise. I find myself needing afternoon naps now to catch up. Lucky I work from home!!

1987 Hurricane ? Completely slept through it.

House spider walking over a scrunched up carrier bag in a room next to the bedroom ? Instantly awake and hunting for the noise.

They say the subconscious is wired to respond to danger and unusual sounds.

I think mine is broken if it won't wake me to trees falling in the garden, but it will when a spider goes for a 3am stroll next door.

As a teen I had a bell alarm that was inside a biscuit tin, on the top of my drawers. Sounded like all hell was breaking loose, and I physically had to get out of bed, to take it out of the tin to shut the bloody thing up

I'm terrible at falling to sleep.

But...once I'm asleep if World War III started a few miles away with a multi-megaton airburst I'd probably roll over, tut and fart before being vaporised.

You'd only need one hand with mine...the other could relax for the rest of the night.

"How do you sleep? Do you need a paramount gong to wake you? Or do you wake up when someone starts a car 3 streets away?

I used to wake up at the sound of a star twinkling in the sky, insomnia and fitful sleep had been a part of my life for so long it had just become the norm and I lived life exhausted…….. after a change in my life at the end of last year, I find myself sleeping much more soundly and for longer, the twinkling stars don’t wake me anymore, it takes something a little more noisy now and am loving my sleep
