It's not instant, but I definitely get very sleepy after orgasm a lot of the time. Like, out within 1-2min max. But I can also fall asleep basically anywhere at any time if I want to. I think it's just a family trait, because both of my parents can do it, and I've been checked for apnea, narcolepsy, etc. Some people can just fall asleep quickly
Yup, I don't get nightmares anymore, only "nightmares". Gore dripping from the ceiling, fires and poisons fill the air, and maybe my innards are now public decorations. The darkness soothes me.
IRL I'd freak the fuck out, but in Dreamland, it's just another beautiful day.
One of the rare things my wife and I weren't fully compatible on, she's like you and needs full silence/darkness to sleep whereas I need something that pulls my mind away from the existential dread to fall asleep. I now use earbuds...
I use SleepPhones. Much nicer than earbuds because they're flat in a headband. Earbuds either fall out overnight or leave me with soreness in the morning.
I'll check them out! My buds definitely fall off during the night and I don't usually have soreness (because they fall out) but sometimes I'll wake up all tangled in the cables lol.
Update, I was hesitant to recommend the wireless charging ones as I had received a bad module. RMA process was super smooth and the replacement works flawlessly so I can definitely recommend them now. Wireless charging is a very nice feature for these.
I read (and sleep) on my side. I prop up the Kindle with a pillow and have it tilted something like 35° so it's more comfortable. So far it's the best setup I've had.
I've never understood the reading to fall asleep, that shit WIRES me up. It will keep me up and reading till it's done, 13hrs straight to injest the book. More often than not I lose sleep because of reading when I start/finish a book
I sometimes wonder how many people out there have kinks like this. Like you pass people on the street and wonder... what are their innermost weird kinky desires... IDK, why, but I often wonders this.
I know about the zeta thing with zoophilia, don't know about anything else I'm afraid, lol 😂. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough, I usually don't notice details... usually.
Wait how is nobody talking about this stock photo making no sense? Like what does the rabbit and bucket even fucking mean? And how do you apply that to a meme?
I once tried to fall asleep to erotica on the theory that I'd have erotic dreams instead of nightmares but I couldn't fall asleep so I listened to my sex playlist instead
A running joke in X-Files is that Mulder has a porn addiction. He's even shown to fall asleep watching it, like when he switched bodies with Michael McKean.
For me it's less a case of 'I need this ambient music to fall asleep', and more a case of 'I enjoy listening to this ambient music and also I can fall asleep to it'.
It's changed a bit for me now, but when I was a teen I used to just whack on whatever I was listening to/enjoying at the time to fall asleep to, be it ambient, death metal, jazz, classical etc.
And as far as listening to people talking goes, that's nowhere near a 'this generation' thing. The sound of quiet voices murmuring on is just a naturally relaxing thing, think of a parent talking to their baby to get them to go to sleep.
I do agree, can't argue there. I don't actually fall asleep to media, but I know people that do.
What we need is some outdoor activity, like hiking, cycling, whatever. I don't think the gym is the right place, it's still indoors. I think we've just lost touch with nature with all these smart devices.

Definitely go for the Bluetooth ones. They've got a new wireless charging model as well but I haven't tried that out yet.

I just read a book and decide that that's it I'll go to sleep and close my eyes.

For me it's usually "after".

Hah I guess it doesn't have the same effect on me. I focus on it which makes me lose track of everything else, which makes it easier to go to sleep

The bucket usually has nothing to do with the meme (in most I've seen). Though you can add text to mean something.
