can you sleep in the dark?

[Zinc1257]

i can't and i'm fucking 18 years old. i have to have some source of light. i just hate complete darkness. usually i have some AVGN videos playing on my TV on low volume and that's what i keep on all night long.

Go back

Yes because I’m a grown man who hasn’t needed a nite-lite since I was a very young child.

 

[Alligator Alcatraz]

Yes and no because my maturity isn't dictated by an arbitrary perception of whether the light is on or not.

 

[Tempress]

just drink enough to forget about your worries and pass out.

I used to leave my PC on and even the very little light it did happen to generate interfered with my sleep. So nah, I definitely prefer having darkness. Even a little bit of light can mess with my sleep.

I grew up with a night light in my room as a kid and after growing older, I also had trouble sleeping in rooms that were "too dark" to sleep. I'll admit it. It happened again when, as an adult, I lived in an apartment with a street light near the bedroom window and I was too poor to buy a curtain; after I moved out I had a hard time sleeping in a dark room again for a while.

There's not really anything to do except just buck up and do it; turn off all the lights (and TVs and other nonsense) and sleep in the dark. If it helps, think of it this way; when you have a girl over (hey, it could happen), are you gonna want her to see that you sleep with a night light on?

Also, when you have kids, don't put a night light in their room. At most put in one of those motion-activated ones in the hallway outside or something.

I sleep better in the dark. The darker the better. I hate any kind of light when i'm trying to sleep. Same with noise. Dark and silent is ideal for me for sleeping.

 

[Epic Fail Man]

Do you ask your parents to look under your bed for monsters as well?

 

[Fat Gay Riker]

Get a job working night shift and sleep during the day when its nice and light outside.

 

[Ultrapenguin]

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you young adults in the year 2022.

 

[Testacles Maximus]

I don’t just sleep in the dark.

 

[Mr. Bung]

Yes. I'm not afraid of a monster in the dark because I am the monster!

 

[Extreme Crusader]

NEW FUCKING FAG, STOP SHARING DETAILS.

 

[Apochrypha]

I have Christmas lights hanging in my room. I don't know if that counts as a night light though.

Better than LEDs, but still autistic

 

[Aunt Carol]

I don't think there's anything wrong with a standard nightlight, some little LED job so you can get your bearings when you wake up, and not trip on the way to the bathroom.

Having to have a TV on all night is where the red flags go up.
