How do you sleep?

Postby Streamguy69 » 23 Jan 2025, 21:43

I sleep on my left side and my right side. If I sleep on my back, it is very uncomfortable and I hardly get any sleep

I have not actually been to bed in more than 30 years. I experienced what seemed like a heart attack. After being taken to the hospital via ambulance and visiting with the medical staff, it was determined that I had a torn esophagus that was allowing stomach acids to rise when laying flat, giving a similar pain to a heart attack. I never did go in for any surgery. As long as I did not lay flat there was no issue.

I instead got used to sleeping in a chair and have been doing so ever since. The chair does lean back but still keeps me from laying flat. I always sleep on my back as a result with no room to turn side to side. I have no trouble dropping off within minutes of settling down and sleeping soundly for the night.

I move around a lot during the night. I like sleeping on my right side, but that's supposed to be bad for you so I try not to do it too much. I move from one side to my back to the other. I can't really sleep on my stomach any more due to an injury (my foot doesn't bend enough to be against the mattress on that angle.

For some time now i haven’t been able to sleep I don’t know now the reason. So i went to the hospital the doctor said I should rest he said that i may have what seems to be insomnia i was terrified he said I don’t sleep because, i was always worried so he gave me some drugs to help me sleep.
So, for now i prefer to sleep on my long couch this way i will rest well.I feel my foam gives me back aches so that is why I don’t sleep on my foam but hopefully when i change the foam i may decide to try sleeping on it .

I lie on my left side when going to sleep and that is the most comfortable position for me. I often wake up from sleeping, during the night, lying on my back and then turn over on my left side again.

Even if I try, I find it tough to sleep on left side, so eventually I need to sleep on my right side

Years ago, when I was a kid, I had read in Self magazine that one should not sleep on their side because their stomach would get big. So, I refused to sleep on my side. Now, years later, I simply sleep on my side.

I do think that Self knew what they were talking about though because now my BMI is embarrassing. When younger? Flat as a pancake.
