It took me a LONG time to stop rolling out of bed and/ or crawling onto the floor in my sleep. Spent most of my time sleeping on the floor from my late teens until my late 20's. I pretty much just gave up on getting back in the bed when I would wake up finding myself on the floor. Never really bothered me too much. As long as I had a cover and a pillow I was set. (Floor was carpet, btw). I still kick quite a bit in my sleep, but staying in the bed is not a problem for me anymore. Anyone else?

 

[rude]

No. What the fuck.

 

[xxracerxx]

Stop

 

[irfaanator]

sometimes

 

[RevoDS]

Only when pass out drunk. Otherwise no, wtf?

 

[nilbog21]

I wish I could. Would do wonders for my back

 

[TimorousPanda]

Only when I have to.

 

[Megalosaro]

I sort of do. I have a Japanese style futon. It's pretty comfy.

 

[Regiruler]

Just becausw you can doesn't mean you should.

 

[udiie]

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

also applies to making threads about literally everything and anything

 

[ponpo]

Used to use a futon on the floor but not anymore. Was comfy but I hated the maintenance so I got a 'normal' bed.

 

[ShadowsFell]

When I was a senior in high school, sometimes I'd come home, lay on the floor of my dad's office, and just sleep there for a while, with no pillow or blanket.

 

[MIMIC]

My brother does. And I think it's weird as fuck, lol. Like, he will be sleeping NEXT to his bed on the floor. Or when he falls asleep downstairs, he'll be on the floor in front of the TV. Not the couch. The floor.

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

You couldn't stay on your bed? LOL You need to take a video of that.

I don't think I've slept on the floor since I was a kid. I sleep on a mattress on the floor during sleepovers, that's about it.

 

[Dicer]

When I was younger I preferred the floor for a while, then I added a small futon mattress and then a little more layering then finally ended up back in a normal bed....

 

[irfaanator]

also my roommate is pretty cheap and hasn't bought a bed, so he sleeps on the floor. It's pretty common from where we're from

 

[Don't Laugh]

are you trying to get junior'd?

 

[CHusson91]

I live in a traditional style Japanese house, so unfortunately, yeah.

 

[Fox Mulder]

I liked sleeping on the floor, but had to get a proper bed since everyone thinks you're a hobo or weird.

 

[Currygan]

My old dog used to kick me out of the bed so he could sleep on it instead

 

[-MD-]

If my back hurts I do.

Well it's not a problem for me anymore. It was actually very frustrating for me. It wasn't something I wanted to do at all. I tried for a long time to get back in bed, but I would always wind up back on the floor, so I just gave up. I honestly can't even explain why it stopped. I am glad it did, though

 

[Rhomega Beta]

I've considered it in order to avoid Dad complaining about me making my bed.

 

[gutter_trash]

build a man sized crib so you don't fall out

 

[entremet]

Nope. And I never thought of it.

The floor is cold!

 

[Erico]

I did as a kid when my grandparents would move in for a year at a time and take my room.

Rolled out the bamboo tatami mat. It was cool and comfy in the summers. I still get the urge sometimes to try it again.

 

[dreamcastfan]

Not at all. I did make the sheets thread as a kind of joke, but since this was an issue for me, I was just curious if it happened to anyone else.

Man, I vastly preferred rolling out the futon and sleeping on the floor to a typical bed. I guess I just prefer being closer to the ground.

 

[Stencil]

I used to during nights of sleeplessness. I stopped around high school.

 

[cajunator]

Occasionally i just lay down on the carpet or rug by the computer and just fall asleep there. I have also fallen asleep on tables, cardboard boxes, or just while standing up. Anywhere is fine.

 

[ActuallyHulk]

I kind of want to because I feel like it would do my back some good but I'm too afraid a spider is going to crawl over me or something.

 

[Dennis]

I had to for about a week when I moved to Nashville.

Fucking agonzing wreck each morning. Was a nightmare.

I am soft like butter lol

 

[Helpless Hometown Motor]

On the internet, nobody knows you're a floor mat.

 

[Troubled Bat]

I sleep in the closet.

 

[Compsiox]

I sleep in the closet.

[Cloud Strife]

Try the stairs OP, I found myself rolling on the floor to often in my sleep.

 

[Kisaya]

I have to be seriously tired to sleep on the ground

Spoiler

and it has happened.

are you a cat?

 

[Skeyser]

i'm not an animal

but w/e suits yourself

 

[Gordon Shumway]

I used to..a lot. I prefer it, personally. I also don't like chairs. Rather sit on the floor. Strange..I know.

 

[DarkFlow]

When I got back from Iraq, I found sleeping on the floor was nicer then sleeping in my bed. I did that for about a year.

Basically this part from Winter Solider rang true for me when I got home.

Sam Wilson: It's your bed, right?
Steve Rogers: What's that?
Sam Wilson: Your bed, it's too soft. When I was over there I sleep on the ground and used rock for pillows, like a caveman. Now I'm home, lying in my bed, and It's like...
Steve Rogers: Lying on a marshmallow. I feel like I'm gonna sink right to the floor.

 

[RyanardoDaVinci]

I've been sleeping on my couch for the last year.

I don't mind sleeping on the floor at all, it's pretty comfortable. I can sleep just about anywhere, though; bed, couch, floor, table, chair, car, toybox (with toys in it), restaurant booth, whatevs.

I don't usually do the floor, but once when I was younger I fell asleep in a recliner. I then woke up at one point and had the only bout of sleep paralysis I have ever experienced, which was terrifying as hell.

 

[Internets]

Just try not to sleep on your side. Do it for too long on hard floor and it'll be bad for your arms, or so I've heard. My friend's arm got permanently numb from sleeping on his side for years on hard floor. Had to go to physical therapy for it. That's all I really know, as I prefer to sleep on soft beds.

 

[shira]

No. What the fuck.

It's pretty common in Asian cultures

 

[ArcLyte]

even one night sleeping on the floor, carpet or not, is hell for me. you must have a high tolerance for pain OP.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Yeah, this image I found on Google was pretty much my set up in Japan. There would be a fairly thin mattress and multiple sheets/blankets under that big comforter looking thing.

 

[quesalupa]

Not usually but I don't really mind it. The floor can be very comfy.

 

[M0nochromatic]

Occasionally when I crash at friends homes I'll forego the couch and just sleep on carpet. I can't do tile or cement though.
