But also avoid lying on your back if you snore and you’ll die early if you sleep on your stomach and if you don’t change positions several times a night, there might be something wrong or maybe it’s just your mattress that is too soft or too hard and btw if you ever even catch a glimpse of blue light, you will never ever sleep well at all anyway so there’s no point in anything in any case.
Meanwhile me on my couch 🍤
The best defense against an achy neck or back in the morning is to sleep just like you stand
meanwhile me standing: 🦐
“straight line” the acticle says as its graphic shows a line as straight as Jim Parsons
I just sleep on the floor rolled up in a giant blanket like a caterpillar in a cocoon. I have no idea why, but it works for me. Mattresses always hurt my back.
It’s a thing if you have back problems.
I honestly did not know this. I alternate between horrible hip and shoulder pain, until I go back to the cocoon.
Go see someone for your back if you can. You don’t want to put that off. Trust me lol.
I remember asking my dad to cocoon me in blankets as a kid. It was wicked comfy.
Nowadays I’m in a hammock. It’s way more comfy on my hips than a mattress and it gives me that happy cuddled feeling.
Never thought of a hammock. I’ll put that in my back pocket for when I have more space.
Why do we never play nightcrawlers anymore?
Bringing my terrible standing posture into sleeping positions sounds brilliant.
I’m a side sleeper. Guess I’m doomed.
You and me both; the advice that worked ok for me is a pillow between the legs and proper placement under the head that keeps everything level.
They also suggested we get the softer mattresses, since we want a little extra dip for the shoulders and hips. That advice is a mixed bag, though, as I still get shoulder pain. Might be the cheap foam, though.
I got very lucky and found the perfect mattress for this, it has a softer exterior layer (about 5-6cm of cheapo smartphoam) and something tougher at its core, perfect balance between smushy enough to accommodate an elbow, firm enough to keep things tidy. No-name mattress from an Ikea knock-off, it was a steal.
Struggling with pillows, though… Still haven’t managed to find something which works for me… Plenty of blankets to wrangle with my legs, so there’s that, at least.
I like to cross my arms across my chest, as well. If it’s good enough for vampires and pharaohs, it’s good enough for me. I have scared the shit out of several roommates, though…i
How can people sleep on their back without suffocating when they wake up ?
That looks deeply uncomfortable, but alright.
My favorite part of these comments are the number of people coming to the realization they may have sleep apnea, lol
Yes, but you sleep best in a confortable and not forced position. Back/neck pain is the result of an forced position which not change in the hours of sleep. There isn’t any pain when you are confortable in a not too old and good mattress

I just sleep like I’m a freeze frame of the party boy dance on my face
This is too hot. Pillow too hot and now you have three pillows and two of them are under the covers.
ITT everyone ridiculing what has always been the exact truth for my sleeping.
