No, I can't sleep if there's any light in the room. I need it to be pitch black

@smileylovesgaming I'm the same way as well. Hell I cover up my clock so I can't see the light . Even when I take a nap during the day

@bhatjc sounds like my sound bar when I turn it off. Has this annoying red light I cover up.

@smileylovesgaming I turn my computer monitor off. Has a annoying light as well. Don't want any lights on

No. The third ex once wanted a tv in the bedroom but I was adamant that there would not be one. Even if the sound is not on, the melatonin in your body, which helps you to sleep, is destroyed by light. I can't imagine sleeping all night with flashing lights in my face.

@Dacrowman Absolutely not. One thing growing older has taught me is that my taste in men is the absolute pits, and it really hasn't changed. I love charming men...and/or handsome men, or men who are really good at hiding who they really are, or men who lie compulsively to make themselves seem fabulous...or a combination of all four. It never changes. Since I've figured out that the flaw is within myself, I am not willing to put myself or anyone else through all of that again.

@4meAndyou happy in your own skin alone

@Dacrowman Exactly!

Yes I do. I always have it on the news channel so I’m not tempted to watch too much of it though. I have it on for the white background noise more than anything. I hate silence.

@SW-User If that works for you. always good👍

SW-User

@bhatjc It’s so I’m less tempted to stay awake all night watching tv 😁

bhatjc · 46-50, M

@SW-User That is good. Not staying up all night.

I can’t. I’d keep paying attention to the tv. It would take too long for me to fall asleep

There's a dog that's old and just about blind that sleeps in my kitchen. Sometimes she gets agitated for no apparent reason, so a few months ago I started leaving the TV on for her. Now she seems to sleep better and is a lot less likely to wake me up at 3am. Sometimes I fall asleep here at my desk, but my bedroom is at the far corner of the house and far away from the TV.

MellyMel22 · F

@robb65 [i][c=BF0080]Poor dog.. It’s great it helps her sleep now. [/c][/i]

bhatjc · 46-50, M

I used to have a TV in my room. But not any more. Don't want one in my room. Always cover up all lights in my room. Total blacked out room

I sleep in absolute darkness and silence too.

assemblingaknob · 26-30, F

Yes. I almost always play a video on YouTube to sleep to. A story time or a rant or a video essay. Narration/story telling helps me fall asleep.

MellyMel22 · F

@assemblingaknob [i][c=BF0080]Do you do it for a distraction so you don’t keep thinking too much so late? [/c][/i]

assemblingaknob · 26-30, F

@MellyMel22 yes.

MellyMel22 · F

@assemblingaknob [i][c=BF0080]Helps me too. It’s hard to sleep w/your brain going so fast 🤭[/c][/i]

SW-User

No but I have a friend who leaves her tv in her bedroom on 24/7 even when she's in the front room anywhere else or gone. That would drive me crazy. I do have my sound machine on rain going 24/7 tho, it helps with my tinnitus alot

MellyMel22 · F

@SW-User [i][c=BF0080]I would wake up with a migraine of it was on in the morning still. All day though?! That’s a lot! [/c][/i]

No. My mom does.

No I don't

In case, I am sleepy then I switch-off the TV and doze-off immediately. However, there have been situations where I slept with TV on.It only happens when I am knackered.😁

SethGreene531 · M

I play the radio, or some kind of white noise instead.
Never could with TV, your mind tunes into the story 😄

MellyMel22 · F

@SethGreene531 [i][c=BF0080]I can cause it’s better than thoughts that don’t let you sleep 😂 By that I mean like the ADD brain 😆[/c][/i]

SethGreene531 · M

@MellyMel22 😄 That part of the brain that decides that 1AM is the time to start on next months To-Do list.

MellyMel22 · F

@SethGreene531 [i][c=BF0080]Exactly![/c][/i]

I did that the other night and Kitchen Nightmares was on. Chef Ramsay made something that looked really good and I got hungry in the middle of the night.
