Can you sleep:
1) in total silence?
2) when there's white noise in the background?
3) when it's raining outside?
4) when PC fans are spinning nearby?
5) when there are lo-fi bests playing?
Yes to all. The secret? Sleep schedule. I have trouble sleeping outside of the sleep schedule hours even if I'm very tired; I need to be near the point of exhaustion for that to be actually possible. On the other hand, it's so overwhelmingly strong I can fall asleep in almost all circumstances (severe emotional damage incurred before sleep notwithstanding). Now as for the restfulness of these scenarios, I can only attest that 1 and 3 lead to somewhat restful sleep; the others I've never actually experienced.
yes to 1, but 2-5 make it easier
When I drink coffee regularly in the morning.
1) yeah, but I prefer some music so that I don't get bored while I'm falling asleep
2) yeah
3) yeah, I prefer it that way
4) yeah, the laptop's always on in my room and the fans have lots of cat hair so they tend to make noise. also sometimes the CPU gets really active for a while for no apparent reason so the fans go on full power.
5) yeah, but I don't usually sleep to lo-fi.
1) Unfortunately, sometimes that silence can be defeaning.
2) I generally have gotten used to sleeping with a fan next to me, so that pretty much creates whitenoise and yeah, I can sleep fine with that.
3) Hell yeah, I might even crack the window open. Thunder storms are a bonus.
4) My PC is in another room so if I do leave it on, I don't hear it. But I don't think I could sleep with it on if it were in the same room. Especially not in the summer.
5) Not tried sleeping with lo-fi playlists. But I do have a chill playlist I tend to put on some nights. I don't sleep with it though, I can drift, but I will come back, usually because I feel it's skipped something, its weird.
yes
