do you sleep in the complete dark?

[MeatPeatCeat]

as in no light whatsoever

Love to sleep with curtains and window open. Falling asleep watching the moon, waking up the dawn.

But I can sleep through any light and most noises, so that wouldn't stop me from conking out and sleeping until midday should the need and opportunity arise.

I used to fall asleep reading, with lamp / light on quite often, but I try to avoid that since reading it messes with your blood sugar. So pitch dark / natural light are my preferences. But I do have a great talent for sleeping

No. I keep the landing light on dim. I can't sleep in the absolute dark.

yes,
really thick curtains.
love it

I have street lights outside my window so no, I can still see objects in my room it's not pitch black. I am never in the pitch black really

No. Lights on, tv on, others in house awake all night. I think it is just what you are used to. I wouldnt like dark or silence

There's a nightlight in the hall. My bedroom is dark with the curtains cracked open. The children both have nightlights.

Many years ago when I still lived at home we had a completely dark house, one night my dad got up to use the loo but sleepily turned too soon into the room and walked headlong down the stairs instead. He was OK but ever since then they have the bathroom light on with the door cracked open all night.

Mostly dark, black out curtains but moon light amd dawn light sneaks around the edges but it doesn't bother me.

I'm more light tolerant than I am noise tolerate for sleeping.

Yes. There are no street lights where I live and blinds deal with moonlight.

But I can go to sleep anywhere. It doesn't worry me.

I’d leave the landing light on but my 18 year old hates the light coming under her door so it’s pitch blackness here.

All lights off, blackout curtains - but there is some seepage of streetlights around edges of curtains.

I often end up moving middle of the night to front room and usually cannot be arsed putting the blinds down there so have streetlight and then early morning sun (faces east). But if I am tired, I will go back asleep there.

I leave a dim lamp on. It's only incase dc come into my room at night. If it was pitch black, they would put the main bedroom light on.

Have you tried a sound machine?

Lights off, curtains drawn and no street lamps nearby, but the curtains aren't blackout so in the summer it's light in the morning.

As much as possible, yes. We have blackout blinds and curtains and close the bedroom door to block out the landing light. I also wear a sleeping mask.

Yep, and I wear an eye mask. I can sleep in anything other than pitch black and total silence. My mum was pretty hardcore about that when I was a baby so I’m assuming that’s why.

No, can't sleep in pitch black (or total silence). Just need a little bit of light seeping in through curtains, and general background noise (like an air conditioner etc.)

We have a normal window and a velux. We have blackout curtains on the normal window. Velux blind stays open in winter and it's nearly pitch black, but we'll start closing it soon as it gets bright too early.

I can sleep with a little bit of light but not much (prefer total darkness though). Husband needs it to be fully dark.

I never shut my blinds I can’t sleep in darkness, it’s a pain in hotels sometimes so I have to either have the curtains open or a light on. I keep meaning to buy a plug in nightlight so this has reminded me.

Yes, with blackout blinds and an eye mask. I can't sleep with any light at all

No, I see the stars, with curtains open.

Yes usually , though baby in our room and have sound activated red light on for when he wakes. I love complete darkness though.
I could never sleep with the curtains/blinds open, my bedroom window isn't really overlooked but I'd still feel lack of privacy I think. Those that do, doesn't the sun wake you very early in summer months?

Yes. And double up with an eye mask.
