I can sleep without any of those. A pillow helps though, so I checked that.

Pillow. I actually like sleeping in sunlight, but I don't too often for sunburn/skin cancer. Don't need PJS, or blankets. It depends, I've fallen asleep just lying in my yard, actually that's the best sleep for me because your outside (family was around). So if any of those, it would be a pillow.

I can sleep with nothing as long as it's dark.
I fail to sleep in the light.

Everything except for the pajamas.
I'm a very light sleeper; I'll even wake up to the sound of my cat running around in the other room.

I checked all of them :sleep:

me too, these are all vital. and even with all of these i usually have trouble sleeping.

if "a device to rid my brain of thoughts" was an option, in this poll or in real life, i would have checked it too

Can't sleep without one.

Just a pillow. Can't have silence, actually...I need some form of white noise (usually my fan).

Just what I was going to say. If it's completely silent, I can't sleep at all. I'm sure I drove my roommate up a wall by having my loud ass fan going all year, even in the winter.

Ah, those were the days. Luckily my dorm had craptastic old heaters which were either on or off. When they were off, we could literally see our breath; when they were on, we were warm, and still needed a fan.

I need complete darkness and silence or I won't sleep. Everything must be calm.

all i need is a blanket. sometimes it's comfy to use things that aren't a pillow as a pillow.

I like to have all of those, but I can just as easily fall asleep sitting up on a couch in a lit room watching a movie with my clothes on.

Absolutely dude...I have some sort of mental connection with a box fan and sleep...its weird but its just soothing

Hahahahahaa, that's so true dude.

Darkness and a pillow.

Me too. I have a box fan and a standing fan going right now.

The sound and coolness = Bliss

Totally. Even on really cold nights I'll just turn on the fan and not face it towards me so I can till have the sound.

Yeah, man I thought I was weird. Glad to see other people do it.

Besides living in NM it gets so fucking hot it's still like 80's at midnight. Sucks balls.

A fan.
Truth, I need my fan going in my room or I won't sleep. If someone turns it off I wake up.

I don't need any of those things, I do however need to be tired, I can't just sleep out of nowhere.

TV on mute and a pillow.

PunkRocks

Given that its 5:30am and Im still awake (like I am most nights), it's a good time to list what its going to take to get me to sleep (cause Im not even sleepy yet).

-Total darkness
-Thermostat set at or below 70
-Ceiling fan on 'medium' setting
-At least one Melatonin pill
-My 'Sleep' playlist on iTunes, barely audible
-A few gb hits followed by a cigarette

*If I can find one, a xanax followed by a beer or two removes the need for all the rest of those.

i sometimes fall asleep with a light and tv on. therefore darkness and silence are out. i dont need pjs, and when its hot, i dont need a blanket. i just need a comfortable pillow is all!

07/18/09, 01:52 PM

Everything except PJs.

VIVALAMATT

07/19/09, 12:25 AM

I can sleep in the daylight, I can sleep without a pillow (like, if I were in a chair), I can sleep without pj's, I can sleep without a blanket....

But I fucking neeeeed silence.

Strangely enough only a pillow, the others don't bother me.

I usually fall asleep listening to the "I Love Movies" podcasts Doug Benson made and hosts. It's hilarious.

but
blanket, pillow and that's all, really.
Although I've slept without both before.

07/19/09, 09:56 AM

I really don't need any of these things. I could fall asleep in the middle of a loud ass party. Though I put pillow because even if i don't hav a pillow I try to make one out of something wherever I am. It would seem I need that most.
