i prefer to sleep with the lights off, it helps me relax especially when i look outside the window and see the dim lights on the street:) I feel at peace, But when i was a kid, I need to have a lamp on beside my bed because my imagination kept running wild! I imagined there was something under my bed or when i opened my eyes i would see something floating above me:) lol

Off, i think most people who sleep with the lights on are afraid of the dark, maybe they have anxiety of the dark, but i think sleeping with the lights on isn't that comfortable for most of us. I think i can better sleep when in dark and that help my mind relax while I'm trying to sleep. But i think kids are the one's that would prefer to sleep with the lights on, not because they have anxiety, simply because they are just afraid of the dark. And for us adults i don't think is that comfortable sleeping with the lights on.

I agree, it's not comfortable sleeping with the lights on.. if someone who sleeps over our house wants to sleep with the lights on, i cover my head with a blanket or i turn to the side and cover my head with a pillow :)

that's a good idea, using your phone as a little flashlight:) Have you ever tried using night lights?:)

Hello Orevro, Well I prefer to have lights off, although I can still sleep with lights on. It is just that, I don't want others see me while sleeping. Well, I don't know what I look like when I sleep, but I have seen others who have funny post when sleeping and I don't want to be one of those, so I don't want to discover it from others. I am just playing safe. Well, I could just cover my body with blankets or my head, but I have read somewhere it isn't good to cover our face when sleeping, I forgot the reason, but it has something to do with our brain. Happy mylotting!

I prefer to sleep with the lights off because I fell asleep faster and also I am awake easily with the lights on and I am constantly reminded by of the time I have to wake up. With our lights off, not only do we save from our electricity but I am also able to sleep quite well.

I usually sleep in the dark while sometimes I can sleep with light on when I am exhausted. In the dark, you feel your eyes very relax and it's easier for me to fall asleep.
