Does anyone else find absolute silence difficult to deal with? In particular difficult to sleep in complete silence?
I think it started from a young age, being obsessed with music. Falling asleep with music.
As an adult, I still struggle with this and need some form of audio to drift off, be it music or something else.
More recently, I find stand-up comedy works best - it’s light-hearted and doesn’t require too much thought.
Yep. I also have a bit of tinnitus so I prefer a bit of sound. Usually I play an episode of Frasier, Mom or Modern Family. Usually before the end of the episode I’m sleeping.
Do…do you live in my house? I will say that I tend to wake up to hear tossed salads and scrambled eggs though and shut off the TV when I can just roll back over and be asleep though.
Put your TV on a 15/30min sleep timer?
Yeah, my wife usually sets an hour timer. Her sleep patterns are odd for falling asleep. She is out in 5 minutes some nights, other nights she can’t sleep for hours.
Yeh. Exactly me.
