Yes. I have many times, when I've had mine pulled away from me but generally I can even if it wasn't pulled away before. ~Joey

pillows - soft pillows
I sometimes i don't use pillow on my head while i am sleeping coz sometimes i don't feel like it. I am using a very thin pillow on my head so that i don't get a back pains after i woke up. I have a soft bed that i can sleep even without pillows.

I couldn't sleep without my pillow. Anytime I've tried to sleep without a pillow I wake up all sore. But I've heard of some people with neck problems that it's good for them to sleep without a pillow.

I can't sleep without a pillow, it is so uncomfortable. I love to sleep in comfort, in king sized bed, a lot of pillows and nice and cosy blanket.

Truthfully, I can never sleep without my pillow with me every night and then. My pillow is one of my comforter at night since my hubby is not here with me for the meantime lols

I have a warm cosy bed so i can sleep without a pillow. Infact i normally sleep without pillow nowadays as pillow under head can put strain on neck. Though as a child i used to always sleep with pillow under my head. Cheers:)

I cant. I am used of having 3-5 pillows and I want my pillows to be colorful and smells good. One on my head, two on both sides, then two under my two legs... I almost sleep over the whole bed when I am sleeping. One time I visit a friend's house and there is only one pillow available... I could not sleep the whole night as if something is missing... at around 4 in the morning... I told my friend that I should leave and go home straight to bed...with my pillows around me... Hmmm that was the nicest sleep i ever had.

I not only require one pillow over my head,but I want one for my legs,two for hugging and 2 other strewn around me.I like the cozy feeling when there are cushy pillows all around me.But when I wake up all pillows will be on the ground and me alone in my bed.I roll that much in sleep!!!!!!!!!

No way! I am a big pillow fans and I would not be able to sleep without one. I actually sleep with three pillows. One behind my head and one in each side of my bed. I don't know why it is just so much more comfortable and I guess it just gives me a sense of 'security' hehe. Very nice discussion I would be surprised if others sleep without a pillow. They must have back or neck problems if they do lol Rated +.

Hello ifinallyfoundmybaby, I am definitely not that person who can just fall asleep soundly without a pillow. I have this funny feeling where I feel safe if I am surrounded by so many pillows. It some kind of protection for me (from what? I also don't know the answer) Last time, I could only sleep if I have at least 4 pillows with me : one under my head, two by my sides and another one at my feet *smile* Now that I am married, I only use two pillows as my husband will throw away all the pillows that 'protect' me as he needs more space on the bed *smile*

No. When you sleep without a pillow your neck has no support. This ceamping of you neck will cause headaches, muscle spasms and even more pain in your back. A firm mattress will give you good support for your back. Possibly use a pillow under the small of your back or, if you sleep on you side, between your knees to straighten out you back and lend support there.

I don't think I could sleep without a pillow. I sleep on my stomach and like you said, the feeling of having something soft under my head is comforting.
