I do believe they exist

I mean... Sometimes I pass out right after jerking it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Like immediately or a few minutes later? Because you might have some serious issues with your heart or arteries if you just straight orgasm to sleep.

It's not instant, but I definitely get very sleepy after orgasm a lot of the time. Like, out within 1-2min max. But I can also fall asleep basically anywhere at any time if I want to. I think it's just a family trait, because both of my parents can do it, and I've been checked for apnea, narcolepsy, etc. Some people can just fall asleep quickly

I fall asleep to horror stories

The other day I dreamt I worked in a human meat shop selling to pigs. Scooped it up with a ladle, rolled it in paper, weighed it, threw it in a bag, "tHaanK yOu".

They payed really good and I never had a complaint, I was super bummed out to wake up.

Yup, I don't get nightmares anymore, only "nightmares". Gore dripping from the ceiling, fires and poisons fill the air, and maybe my innards are now public decorations. The darkness soothes me.

IRL I'd freak the fuck out, but in Dreamland, it's just another beautiful day.

People that need sound to fall asleep scare me, so imagine me in the opposite corner.

One of the rare things my wife and I weren't fully compatible on, she's like you and needs full silence/darkness to sleep whereas I need something that pulls my mind away from the existential dread to fall asleep. I now use earbuds...

Same here, my partner used earbuds and I earplugs. :D

I use SleepPhones. Much nicer than earbuds because they're flat in a headband. Earbuds either fall out overnight or leave me with soreness in the morning.

I'll check them out! My buds definitely fall off during the night and I don't usually have soreness (because they fall out) but sometimes I'll wake up all tangled in the cables lol.

Definitely go for the Bluetooth ones. They've got a new wireless charging model as well but I haven't tried that out yet.

Update, I was hesitant to recommend the wireless charging ones as I had received a bad module. RMA process was super smooth and the replacement works flawlessly so I can definitely recommend them now. Wireless charging is a very nice feature for these.

Tinnitus is a pathway to many sleep requirements some consider to be unnatural

I just read a book and decide that that's it I'll go to sleep and close my eyes.

Before or after you drop a book on your face?

For me it's usually "after".

I read (and sleep) on my side. I prop up the Kindle with a pillow and have it tilted something like 35° so it's more comfortable. So far it's the best setup I've had.

I did for a while as part of a D/S relationship once

D/S?

Dom/Sub

I presumed, but wasn't sure.

I sometimes wonder how many people out there have kinks like this. Like you pass people on the street and wonder... what are their innermost weird kinky desires... IDK, why, but I often wonders this.

Enough. Trust me. There's a kink I'm specifically into where people have added a thing to their wardrobe to show they're into this kink. Not something accidentally attributed to something else either. I've had a bunch of people notice it in my wardrobe and I've noticed it in others. Incredibly common when I never would have thought so.

Hm... maybe.

I know about the zeta thing with zoophilia, don't know about anything else I'm afraid, lol 😂. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough, I usually don't notice details... usually.

I have no idea what the zeta thing is. Mine is way more relaxed. An odd kink people don't quite understand but still remarkably tame and with a growing presence in kink and popculture overall.

They put zeta (the Greek letter) on their social networking profiles, in the avatar somewhere usually, to indicate they're into zoo sex.

Wait how is nobody talking about this stock photo making no sense? Like what does the rabbit and bucket even fucking mean? And how do you apply that to a meme?

The bucket usually has nothing to do with the meme (in most I've seen). Though you can add text to mean something.

I once tried to fall asleep to erotica on the theory that I'd have erotic dreams instead of nightmares but I couldn't fall asleep so I listened to my sex playlist instead

People who fall asleep to ASOIAF (Game of Thrones) theories.

And then wake up to Glimballs singing "Secret Tunnel"

Your whole generation is fucked if there are enough people who require media to sleep to relate to a post like this. No wonder ya'lls mental illness statistics are through the roof.

"Doctor, I hear voices all the time!"

"What do you do during the day?"

"At work surrounded by people."

"What do you do at home?"

"Watch people converse on TV"

"What about when you sleep?"

"Yeah, I leave it on."

Your generation had to be told not to eat paint chips.

It's their fault for making the paint actually taste like candy.

I don't think babies have gotten any smarter over the years. They still eat whatever they get their hands on.

To be fair the generations before us made paint out of lead, so there is that.

It stops the looping thoughts and relaxes me.

I just need media to play as I fall asleep to block out my tinnitus man, my mental health problems are irrelevant to that fact.

clinician here, there's no link that I know of between hearing real voices and developing psychosis

But there is a huge correlation between Schizophrenia and Sleep Disorders.

For me it's less a case of 'I need this ambient music to fall asleep', and more a case of 'I enjoy listening to this ambient music and also I can fall asleep to it'.

It's changed a bit for me now, but when I was a teen I used to just whack on whatever I was listening to/enjoying at the time to fall asleep to, be it ambient, death metal, jazz, classical etc.

And as far as listening to people talking goes, that's nowhere near a 'this generation' thing. The sound of quiet voices murmuring on is just a naturally relaxing thing, think of a parent talking to their baby to get them to go to sleep.

I do agree, can't argue there. I don't actually fall asleep to media, but I know people that do.

What we need is some outdoor activity, like hiking, cycling, whatever. I don't think the gym is the right place, it's still indoors. I think we've just lost touch with nature with all these smart devices.
