Floor sleeping. 2022-12-27 09:50:57


So like, I have a bed, right?

Queen sized, on a proper bed frame, the whole nine yards.

But like, almost every night, I find myself waking up to pee only to go lay on the floor instead of back to bed.


I'm a chronic insomniac, nightmares wake me up every two hours or so, meaning sleep consists of 4 or so shifts per night.


For about 2/4 of those shifts, I prefer to sleep on the floor.


On hardwood I like to lay on a blanket, but if there's carpet, I'll sleep directly on that, with a blanket over me, and a pillow.


There's been studies that say floor sleeping helps straighten the back


I'm just joking of course; sleep isn't real, and I spend all night wandering from the bathroom to the kitchen.


But seriously, it really works for me, and I'm contemplating making that the main way I sleep, or at least lay down until the nightmares get me.

Some of my most well rested sleeping has been on the floor so you're definitely onto something.

Have you tried an indoor hammock? Would recommend.

I haven't tried an indoor hammock, but I really dig outdoor hammocks, and in good weather it's my preference to sleep outside.

Sleeping on the floor is better than any bed I've ever had

Some of the best sleep I ever had was on a concrete floor with a water canteen for a pillow.


Happily ETS'd.

I can kinda see that. Old 2 liter soda bottles make deceptively good pillows too. Was is one of the curved hip canteens? I bet those fit under the head perfectly.

Can confirm. I remember once spending almost a whole week in bed during a vacation from work. I played PlayStation the whole time and didn't have anywhere else to sit than in bed in my room. After like 4 days my back began to hurt like hell. I decided to sleep on the floor that night, and it did wonders to my back.

Yeah one of those classic 1 quart military canteens. And yes I found they provide oddly adequate head support.

Get a good polyester hammock that can hold your height and weight, the closer to your size the better (you wouldn't want your legs to be too scrunched). Place it in a warm room between two tall areas, like the walls of a quiet closet or two stereos like I sometimes do (mounted stereos, the last thing you'd want is for surround sound stereos to fall on you while the song "bringing the house down" is playing). Get your best two pillows and a thick cotton quilt and swaddle it around yourself while in the hammock. Turn off the lights. And, if you did choose mounted stereos, play some relaxing noise on a modest volume, or bring a low frequency fan or heater. Also, bring a book, because believe it or not, humans were not biologically designed to sleep on demand.

I have awful back issues and I've tried floor sleeping. Didn't help at all. 👎


Haven't tried a hammock. I might!
