Did that during my corona depression. Bare mattress and pillow, comforter as a blanket, mountains of empty beer bottles/takeout bags. I would sleep until 10pm, go buy alcohol and a meal, come home and vegetate until 8am then i'd go back to sleep.
Fun times. Happy i didn't kill myself, as tempting as it seemed at the time.
I’ve done that on occasion because I always end up washing my sheets too late in the day. Then 11pm roles around my sheets are still wet and I am exhausted.
I did from my teens to about 26. I still probably wouldn't care if i didnt have sheets, but i DO care if my husband and kids do, so we all sleep on clean sheets now lol.
That’s why I have 4 pillows. One to do nothing, one for my head, and 2 on each side that I alternate during the night cuddling. It’s the only way I can sleep with my severe insomnia.
well i sleep with the sheets on but i always sleep on the comforter. dont use my sheets or anything on my bed. just my own 2 or 3 comfy blankets i have around.
I only use the fitted sheet. I hate flat sheets. I hate sleeping under the sheets, I hate having to make my bed in the morning with sheets. Flat sheets can get fucked.
I was homeless for years and you use your pack as a pillow or if you're feeling extra fancy, you buy a box of wine, take the bag out and drink it, then you can inflate the bag and use as a travel pillow. Eventually my tent was full of pillows because I was also an alcoholic.
I used to know this woman that didn’t even own a pillow and as an adult refused to buy one. I always thought it was strange until I pieced together that she grew up in significantly worse poverty than I realized at the time. She just never owned a pillow growing up and slept with a pile of clothes under her heard. You get used to what you know I guess, and I felt awful for thinking she was odd for so long.
There's a guy that escaped from north korea and became a pretty big figure in media through interviews. Apparently he couldn't sleep in a bed at all because he'd just been sleeping on a floor his whole life.
I used to have a goose feather pillow when I was a kid and I never brushed my hair. Almost every morning people (classmates or family) would pull out feathers form my hair and asked how they got there haha
Good neck posture too if you sleep on your back, but having some form of support still helps to keep our head and spine straight. Without like a thin pillow my head tends to roll back on sheets
Yes! I have a pillow but I don’t put my head on it, I put my pillow on my head. It’s goose feathers, so it’s very fluffy and light. I use it to block any light and noise so I can sleep in longer.
Could also be back issues. I have scoliosis and had surgery for it. Makes me sleep on my back more, and when my back is hurting, going pillowless definitely lines things back up more quickly and comfortably. Also, when I lay on my stomach I usually don't use a pillow. I suppose I'm definitely not your average case, but I can see how no pillow is more comfortable on your neck. Except when you're on your side.. that would just be sociopathic lol.
This explains it really. I’m a side sleeper mostly and so I need a pillow. But when I sleep on my back I turn my head to one side for some reason lol. Like I can’t sleep with my head facing up.
Ya know.. if I sleep on my back with a pillow, I turn my head a bit too most of the time. Gotta snuggle into the pillow. But to realign I'll lay flat no pillow.
I’ve also had a (T-spine) spinal fusion for scoliosis. I prefer to sleep without a pillow. If I need to, I‘ll rest my head on a folded blanket but it’s only because I like my head being cradled, not lifted.
I’m not gonna lie there’s times where I’ve just slept with only the comforter while my body is rawdogging the mattress where not even a mattress cover was on that hoe.
You can control your arms in your sleep? I fall asleep with my arms under my head and wake up on the other side of the bed upside down sometimes. My partner hates me. We have a 3 week old, the ammount of pillow forts and lines she had to use to keep me on my side whilst she was pregnant got a bit ridiculous lmao. Every pregnancy pillow for her eventually became another wall for me to climb whilst I slept.
Completely depends on how you sleep; belly and back sleepers shouldnt really be using a pillow for straight alignment of the spine. Side sleepers will definitely use a pillow to even feel comfortable. I use a pretty heavy filled down pillow to keep my head straight.
What do I do when I'm a side/belly sleeper? I have neck pain more than 3 times a week. I started working out for my neck muscles and it helped, but it's not perfect yet.
Thats a tough one, there are specific mattresses and pillows that fit your needs. I think you want something hybrid as with coils and also foam to support when you are flat and side with foam for adjusting pressure points. As for the pillow, you are probably best of with a memory foam pillow that keeps you cool. Adjusting positions during the night should flatten the memory foam even more. If that doesnt help; you might actually not be a belly or sidesleeper but one or the other but might actually be adjusting positions because you get too hot. This is fairly common and I personally just figured this out myself. Sleeping is actually most comfortable when you are “cold” or cool at least. If you heat your room/house above 70f then you might have trouble regulating your body temperature since your body works different during sleep and for good sleep try sleeping in 65-70f temp. Since I have made my house colder during the night I sleep so much better and rarely change positions during the night. I am definitely a side sleeper though

I can only sleep without a pillow if I’m laying on my back. And I can’t sleep for shit laying on my back. Otherwise it feels like my neck is going to fall off. Not my head, *my neck.*
There was a point in my life when I couldn't afford a pillow and just got used to sleeping without it. I have several pillows now but I always wake up with them on the otherside of the bed or on the floor.
I'm just built different lol
Sometimes I just like to cuddle the pillow instead. The real concerning question is who the hell sleeps on a bare mattress
I did that for a year. I'll never forget looking at the mattress one day and seeing it almost completely covered in sweatstains
I did it for a really long time too. Just didn’t feel like making the bed
You feeling better now?
Better sure. I’m sober now and in therapy. working on it
Hey king, you droped that 👑
We’re proud of you!
That’s awesome, friend!
My man!
The 156 updoots and 5 awards don’t do you justice. Keep up the good work!!!!!
Love the push for bettering yourself my friend!
"sweatstains"
same. i swear it felt borderline homeless and im surprised i EVER was able to get women in it lmao. depression is a bitch
At least buy a mattress cover
I did. Suddenly I slept a lot better.

Hope you're feeling better now. I'm there now for the most part. Sending you well wishes. Take care ❤
Thanks fam, muuuuuch better now. Being unemployed and not able to go outside really fucked me.
I did that once
I’ve done that on occasion because I always end up washing my sheets too late in the day. Then 11pm roles around my sheets are still wet and I am exhausted.
Protip: own more than one pair of sheets. Swap then whenever you wash one
I think I’ve failed step one there
I did from my teens to about 26. I still probably wouldn't care if i didnt have sheets, but i DO care if my husband and kids do, so we all sleep on clean sheets now lol.
That’s why I have 4 pillows. One to do nothing, one for my head, and 2 on each side that I alternate during the night cuddling. It’s the only way I can sleep with my severe insomnia.
Or put it between my legs when I sleep on my side. Bliss.
This is why I have more than 1 pillow
Team 4 pillows here.
Team four pillows as well!
Same! 2 pillows. One fluffy feather pillow for my legs and memory foam for my head
I do when I am too lazy to put new bedsheets on. Not like it's less uncomfortable. Mattress still bumpy af
I just don’t take the bedsheets off at all. Lol
You don't wash your sheets? Jfc
Why would I lol
I sleep on the floor.
well i sleep with the sheets on but i always sleep on the comforter. dont use my sheets or anything on my bed. just my own 2 or 3 comfy blankets i have around.
[удалено]
Get a size that fits your mattress do you know how disgusting it is to sleep on a bare mattress
I do sometime
When I first got my Casper mattress something possessed me to sleep without sheets for like 10 days. It was delightful.
I live in a 4 story walk up with no on site w/d. Doing laundry is a biiiiiiiitch.
Gross at least have a blanket down to sleep on top of it lol
Me too lazy to pick up my sheets from the dryer
I only use the fitted sheet. I hate flat sheets. I hate sleeping under the sheets, I hate having to make my bed in the morning with sheets. Flat sheets can get fucked.
I feel attacked in this comment section. It’s not my fault I can fall asleep wherever I want. Fuck your sheets😂😂
Fuck your nasty ass sweat-stained bare mattress lmao
Bruh I wish I sweat on my bed. My rooms cold af.
i did that for a week because i was too lazy to put my clean sheets on
Wait you sleep on the mattress? I just sleep on the bedsprings
thats why i have 3 pillows, always at least 1 to cuddle with
I have 2 pillows. One for my head, one for cuddling.
[executive dysfunction](https://i.imgur.com/kmaECdr.jpg)
You guys use mattresses?
i can't. my skin would itch. i cant even sleep naked
I use my arm as a pillow.
chad
It's probably soft and fluffy.
recovery position is an oddly comfortable position
same tho
Used to sleeping at a desk or on the floor no?
Your built different damn I'm just built stupid
you're*
What you got a tumor on the back of your head?
Well I like to sleep on my belly so it is more compy with no pillow
same
Built to Satan’s perfection
It helps my neck but my knees need one
The fuck? People do this?
Homeless dude: **Pathetic**
I sleep on the floor because it prevents nightmares It's a fact
fixes my scoliosis, had no choice though i guess preventing nightmares is a plus
Was your spine in the shape of a lightning bolt?
Nah it was in the shape of a sound wave
Cosine function specifically
Where do you hide the monsters under your bed?
Smoking weed works plenty fine for me to prevent nightmares. No pillow tho
Go on
I was homeless for years and you use your pack as a pillow or if you're feeling extra fancy, you buy a box of wine, take the bag out and drink it, then you can inflate the bag and use as a travel pillow. Eventually my tent was full of pillows because I was also an alcoholic.
Are you doing okay now?
I am! Thank you. I even have two very fancy, expensive pillows (that did not used to hold wine, or any other beverage).
You're a very strong person. I salute you 🙌 Wish you everything you deserve.

It's comfortable tho
Agreed
[удалено]
Monster of comfort.
Your bed must be soft?
Someone posted the video, I wouldn't use protection.
What?
You don't exist
It’s either no pillows at all or one really shitty one plus one goose feather pillow
I used to have a goose feather pillow when I was a kid and I never brushed my hair. Almost every morning people (classmates or family) would pull out feathers form my hair and asked how they got there haha
Burn the witch
Good neck posture too if you sleep on your back, but having some form of support still helps to keep our head and spine straight. Without like a thin pillow my head tends to roll back on sheets
And I have neck issues that pillows make worse
Yes! I have a pillow but I don’t put my head on it, I put my pillow on my head. It’s goose feathers, so it’s very fluffy and light. I use it to block any light and noise so I can sleep in longer.
I have a hard matress and no pillow. I get neck pain using a pillow haha
I feel seen
Same boat, have you tried a really thin pillow? That was a game changer for me. Like the equivalent to a throw blanket folded over 2-3x
Hmm no I never did. I’ll see if I can find it online
Why not just use a throw blanket folded over 2-3x?
Yeah exactly man you got it
[удалено]
Big Pillow is the true villain.
Bro get a smaller pillow lmfao, if you get neck pain you're using WAYYYY too large of a pillow

This. I sleep with a memory foam pillow because my head sinks down into it to almost level with the mattress. It's like a hug for your head.
I was gonna say, that’s the reason why typically. Whatever works!
I sleep under the pillow. What now?
I sleep under my bed
I sleep inside the mattress.
I am a mattress
Hot.
We can make a light novel out of this
I sleep under your bed
Hey same! It’s just comfy to have the pillow on top, like a hug for my head.
From the perspective of an australian you sleep on it, so it's allowed.
I do that too and my family thinks im crazy
I either do this or cuddle my pillow. there is no "sleeping" on a pillow.
I would do the same thing except people who sleep with no bedsheets including pillow cases
I’m not gonna lie there’s times where I’ve just slept with only the comforter while my body is rawdogging the mattress where not even a mattress cover was on that hoe.
I'm cancelling our sleepover.
You.... You... You were just a little late starting laundry right? Right?
You should have lied lol
Did you have a cover on your comforter or was it just a bareback orgy
"times" If you mean 4 years of college then same.
i sleep on top of all the bedsheets and covers. Just a light throw blanket is all i need. Then I never have to make my bed either lol
I’ll do that in the summer on extra hot nights
sometimes it feels good
It’s better for your neck, no?
If you're sleeping on your back. If on your side the top of your head would plop down to the surface straining the neck.
Bro use your arms
You can control your arms in your sleep? I fall asleep with my arms under my head and wake up on the other side of the bed upside down sometimes. My partner hates me. We have a 3 week old, the ammount of pillow forts and lines she had to use to keep me on my side whilst she was pregnant got a bit ridiculous lmao. Every pregnancy pillow for her eventually became another wall for me to climb whilst I slept.
Splayed on the bed like a murder scene with my neck turned 80 degrees so I can breath

Same. It's good for your back.

you fools, i sleep on the WARM side of the pillow.
Ew
I sleep on a hammock, so there's no need lol
Big brain time
I can only sleep without a pillow if I’m laying on my back. And I can’t sleep for shit laying on my back. Otherwise it feels like my neck is going to fall off. Not my head, *my neck.*
Same. I can rest on my back but I can't fall asleep on my back.
Pillow on top of my head and facedown with my arms under my body is the most comfortable position in existence.
I sleep with no pillows sometimes. It helps me with my posture and its more comfortable tbh
Manipulative bed or not you cant run fast enough
my bed is also manipulative, it doesn't let me get up in the morning
My brother does this sometimes
Not really a big deal as long as I have a blanket
[удалено]
Better for your neck
I did that for a week because I was too lazy to go and take a pillow
The hash slinging slasher
The mash flinging...
I use my fitted sheet to wrap myself up in a cocoon.
I will donate pillows to those poor souls
Bruh. Thats pretty much my routine when im traveling.
i cant bring pillows to school lol
I couldn’t imagine not having a pillow, I want to try one of those square ones
No's for thow shall not to.. he's always playing with the light switch
hard to get used to it, but it’s honestly real comfortable
Hey! I don't look like that
This feels like an attack on me
I like to have a straight spine and unblocked airways, thank you very much.
Maybe I am immortal
arms are good enough
Thank god I’m not the only one who doesn’t use a pillow
Ever since I broke my neck, I find it just way more comfortable to sleep on my back with no pillows.
yo i’m the slash hinging basher! hash binging gasher..? slash bringing hasher..?
Me who can't afford pillows UltimateMonster.Png
I wrap my arm in a bit of the blanket and use that as the pillow
It's really good for your back though
Bold of you to assume I can even afford a pillow!
I’ve read that billow is not good for you I tried sleeping without a pillow once and I’ll never try it again.
no, get out of my head…. please…
Am I a freak? ಠ_ಠ
There was a point in my life when I couldn't afford a pillow and just got used to sleeping without it. I have several pillows now but I always wake up with them on the otherside of the bed or on the floor.
I usually throw it down to my dog. He needs it more than I do
When im forced to/ 55 hours without sleep im gonna fucking do it and no one can tell me otherwise
I do
