So I’m about to snooze when all of a sudden before I drift off it feels like I missed a stair in my bed and I start to fall until I’m forcefully woken up by the shock. Like, WTH?! It’s not like a dream where you fall off a skyscraper, it’s more like before you start to dream when it happens.
I read something about this and night terrors being more likely when you’re asleep on your back. At which point I switched to side sleeping.
No more falling issues, but now my shoulder is jacked up.
I hear that. I used to sleep with my arm under my pillow but my shoulders can’t take it anymore.
I wound up buying a medcline. It’s a wedge pillow with a cutout for your arm. Solved that problem for me. The new one is that the body pillow flattens around my head over the course of the night. Not a huge deal, so I’m relatively comfortable now.
I want to go back to a hammock. I never slept better than when I had one bolted in my room.
