JollyBoyJohn posted:Folk saying they don't like sleep next (yes I know some people say this to be contrarian because it would mean they could spend more waking hours playing Nintendo games). Now enjoying being in bed I get. Love to lie in bed reading a book or watching TV or playing with my phone or anything, really. Bed's comfortable. No one bothers me there. But actually sleeping? I'd give it up in a heartbeat if I had the option.

I used to feel the same but then I realised that other people feel refreshed and energetic after sleep, and then it turned out that the reason I was so tired all the time was because I stop breathing during my sleep, so now I need a small quiet machine and a mask and sleeping is good again hth op

I enjoy having slept. I would just prefer to be able to feel that way without having to dedicate so much time to it. It's like, do I enjoy video games? Sure. Does that mean I enjoy waiting several hours for them to download? No. If I could get the good bit without the time-wasting that would be ideal.

I was chatting to my wife about scifi machines recently, and I realised that one I really wish existed was Judge Dredd's Total Relaxation Inducer. A full night's sleep in ten minutes? Yes please! That said, I like the feeling of dozing. The half asleep state I really enjoy. If that was sleep, I'd love sleeping.

The first time I read Beggars in Spain, I was jealous of the Sleepless... at first. I finally decided that while it'd be very convenient not to NEED to sleep, I'd still like to be ABLE to sleep.

I like the experience of sleeping, of fading in and out of consciousness, being comfortable and warm in a semi-dreamlike state

Better than the alternative: insomnia, which sucks rear end.

Strange we have “sleep” and “asleep”, two words almost exactly the same to describe the same activity. What a world we live in.

The 'asleep' bit, is in fairness, not experienced. It's the liminal states that are the nice bits.

IME of having a literal sleep disorder that only got diagnosed because of people I was living with going "holy loving poo poo", the only times I've actually hated sleep and not experienced any in-between state were the times when I was so sleep deprived I fell asleep during movies and while upright.

Dreams come in three varieties: bad dreams, good dreams, and nonsensical dreams. I'm not a fan of any of them. Good dreams are the worst because you wake up confused and disappointed and it ends up souring your whole day. I once had a dream about a beautiful woman listing all the reasons she loved me and it was maybe the worst nightmare I ever had.
