Probably about 5-10 minutes most of the time.
Your brain chatters to itself all the time, so if you stfu with the inner monologue and instead just try to eavesdrop on what’s going on in the background, that leads pretty much directly into a dream state.
interesting, i might try your suggestions
Thats called WILD!
Wake Induced Lucid Dreaming, hard to do but pretty cool if you can pull it off.
Same, I have sleep tracks I listen to as well that usually start with a relax/disrupt your self-think exercise and then start describing a scene, like a train ride through pastures, this is not the same as leaving the TV or YouTube running, or an audiobook; it’s intentionally boring and low engagement but it gives you something to focus on listening to so that you don’t get caught up in your own thoughts, similar to the eavesdropping.
May I ask for some suggestions from your collection?
Depends how stressful I am. Sometimes it’s less than 5 minutes, other times I struggle to obtain the eepy stage even after 3 hours.
Personally, I always find you extremely stressful
Surprised I haven’t seen this response yet:
I say awake doing things until I am on the verge of passing out from being sleepy. If that means I only get 3 hours of sleep, then so be it.
What if you don’t feel that tired the whole night? Would you not sleep and go to work after that sleepless night?
My wife is appalled that I’m asleep the second i hit the pillow. She could be in mid conversation with me in bed then she’ll just hear snoring.
It’s a gift and a curse.
Damn dude, what about cuddles and stuff :o
I’ll fall asleep during the cuddles as well lol
Anywhere between an hour or never. I have a small window of opportunity to fall asleep, if I miss it or my sleep gets disturbed, I’m screwed and there’s nothing I can do. I’ll just be tossing and turning the whole night. On work days I probably get about 5 hours of sleep, that goes to maybe 6.5 hours on the weekend.
I don’t get in bed until I feel my sleeping pill kick in, so not long
~1h, 30min if I’m lucky. And it have to be absolutely quiet or the timer will reset 🙃
I’m sharing that pain with you.
On hot summer days, like now. I can find myself up for 2-3 hours due to the discomfort.
Usually about 20min? I set a sleep timer on podcasts for 30 min and i usually don’t hear it stop.
When i can’t fall asleep quickly, it’s maybe an hour? Eventually sleep happens.
Usually 5-10 minutes
Fuckin hours wooooooooooooo!
It usually tak… Zzz zzz zzz
3 to 10 minutes, depends how sleepy I am
Probably about half an hour or so.
Occasionally get a bad night where it takes me 2 or 3 hours to get to sleep. But it’s only if I’ve had a bad day in work or something that my head won’t quiet down about but it’s pretty rare and i can usually sort it out with some white noise earphones
It takes me an hour or so !! Once i am in bed , i play some video and fall asleep to it !
Once I put the Skyrim OST on it’s usually within two songs but sometimes it’s all the place.
