Sleeping positions are curious things. Some people have very specific positions they have to be in in order to fall asleep, while other people have no specific "sleeping style".
Personally, I need to be on the side or lie on my stomach. Sleeping on my back feels very unnatural.

So, how do you sleep? And what keeps from sleeping? I can't stand snoring. Nothing can drive me as mad as a person snoring when I'm tired.

Flat on my front, head resting on one arm. Have trouble sleeping any other way.

I often wake up with my arm completely so numb that I can't move it. It's a strange sensation to try and reach for the alarm button and discover that your limb of choice is completely unresponsive.

For some reason I tend to lay on my side. I like feeling "secure" and I dunno...I like being surrounded by pillows or curled up. It just makes me feel safe.

Recently I've ha to start sleeping on my back due to shoulder, back and leg pain, so sleeping has been kinda hard x.x

I normally sleep on my right side, I can't on my left for some reason, and all snuggled in with my pillow and blankets. :D

If I'm really tired I will just fall asleep on my back since I'm too dead to roll over, and just peacefully pass out like a champ.

On my side with a pillow under my chest and some other odd specifics. Can't get comfortable any other way.

On top of your mum.

Depends on how hot/cold it is.

If it's on the warm side, sprawled out on my back or front. If it's a little cooler, than I tend to sleep on my front with my covers wrapped around me.

I also enjoy spooning my other half :D

I use a body pillow. No it doesn't have a drawn manga/anime character on it, I'm no otaku. But it is ridiculous comfy for me.

Usually on my front. If it's too hot I throw the covers off and sleep on my back with 2 pillows. Whatever way I sleep the covers and pillows always end up on the floor or shoved down the side of the bed against the wall with the sheets pulled from underneath the mattress.

The only thing that keeps me from sleeping is the sound and feel of my breathing being disrupted. It's bad during the summer months with all of the pollen around. Half-blocked nose making that high whining sound or the kind of phlegm-clogged cough stuck at the back of my throat. Drives me insane.

On the side... I think.
I dunno, I only remember my 'getting comfy' position. Sleeping and waking up positions change every time I recall them.

Do you really need to ask?


In all seriousness, I sleep either on my left side or my stomach. Anything else, and it just doesn't work.

For some reason I can fall asleep at any time in any position in the day if I feel like having 30 minutes of sleep, but the moment it comes to the 'real' time to sleep at night, my body is just like "IMMA BE SO FUCKING UNCOMFY RIGHT NOW, TRY SLEEP NOW *****".

So I normally just end up trying fewking everything before I finally fall asleep, but it's normally my side I think.

I'm slightly different


But anyway, most commonly I fall asleep on my back, but I can sleep most ways. It's how and where I wake up that tends to be the problem.

Don't you feel better now?

Honestly, I can't spoon for long. Beds aren't designed for me to sleep on my side. Nowhere for my arm closest to the bed to go.

Like a boss.

Usually the most comfortable for me to actually fall asleep is lying on my stomach, though it's less comfortable when I wake up. My side is moderately comfortable for me as well, though over the last few years it's been getting increasingly difficult for me to comfortably sleep on my back.

[sub]I put the real answer in the spoiler because I didn't want to just ruin my joke like that.[/sub]

Like the dead, according to my dad.

Really, though, I sleep on my side or back. I usually lie on my back until I get sleepy enough to roll over to the side, at which point I fade off into sweet, sweet sleep.

That's why you go for my 1337 sleeping tactic of lying sort of on your side but leaning towards on your stomach. It's hard to explain but you slide your arm nearest to the bed away from your body and under your pillow, which kind of slants you more towards the stomach lying but you're still kind of on your side, the arm above you does as normal. I actually just had to go lie down in my bed to try explain it better :p

And on the Forever Alone, I can't complain because I haven't really been attempting to remedy it, I am still the vibrant young age of 18, and am about to embark on the magical quest of going to university, so I've just said "fuckkit" to my old social life.

Besides, EVERY female on the PLANET only goes for arseholes/only like muscular men/only go for men that have money/only go for the men with the right pheromones/only like guys when Mars aligns with Jupiter/puts every male they see instantly in the friendzone/can't handle nice guy's awesomeness.

Usually on my left side, but sometimes on my right. That is, if my cat will even fucking let me go near the damn bed in the first place. I tell you, for such small creatures, they sure do take up a hell of a lot of space.

Well, I fall asleep on my back. I've woken up on my back, my side, my other side, and my stomach. So I guess the answer varies a little based on which version you want answered.

Figures, I was having trouble finding that video.
