sitting down vs lying down

Post Reply New Topic

I enjoy lying down a lot more than sitting down. In the breakroom @ work, usually I am the only one lying down. Some coworkers even sleep sitting down (or standing up). I've been like that since I was young. Maybe I'm just not strong enough to sit down comfortably. Don't know.

Often take a long time (2 hours) to fall asleep. Often wake up in the middle of the night and try and fail to sleep.

Only working one part time job. It is not a professional job or anything like that. Hourly, unskilled. Retail. No school, single, zero "friends", zero children. Hardly ever stay awake after 9 or 10pm. Lately, been waking up 4am, even on days off. Two hours after breakfast, one hour nap.

light sleeper

Sometimes I do not know if I fell asleep.

I'm not so busy that I do not have time to sleep. The last time I was too busy to sleep, I was about 24 and still in undergrad.

Lying down, always get more healing to the brain ......not saying where to invest your funds, but the right health supplements ...can / will make changes in your metabolism and sleep sometimes. From a long history of experience
with thise things now .

You're a laid-back person who prefers lying down, and you've been having some sleep issues. Maybe try some relaxation techniques before bed to help you wind down?

She has a recliner, I get the couch.
Sometimes the dogs let me lie on it

I find it more relaxing to lie down. I like it under my favourite blanket.

I have chronic fatigue (ME/CFS) and I spend most of my time lying down in bed, with my head propped up on pillows. And I'm always exhausted nevertheless, but sitting up would be even more exhausting.

I always have to have my feet up when I'm on the sofa but I'm not lay down flat

I am lying in bed right now (it’s the middle of the day), answering wrong planet on my tablet. Ive always liked relaxing in bed at any time of day.

Was taught early on, that. just getting your feet up higher....best if above the level of the heart,when lying down.
Help circulation alot . Overnight or at least 15 min. for a short break.

Sitting always seems uncomfortable for me so I prefer to either lie down or stand up.
If I do sit, I don't sit like a normal person.
Usually I'll have my legs drawn up to my chest or propped on something, or folded underneath, or some other weird position.

Sometimes I feel like every bone in my worthless corpse is going limp and I have no control over it

Paranoid it is an expensive medical condition

I sit.
If I had a choice and if I could, I'd sleep sitting.

That's just me, mainly because my upper respiratory anatomy is questionable.

The only thing I can confirm is that I do not have polyps and lying down gives me a higher chance of mouth breathing or not breathing.


Else, I hate sleep.
I still mostly do because transitioning from lying down to sitting up hurts.
My arms most especially felt like lead, likely from whatever possible blood flow or heart issue I may likely have.
