I used to think that having the t.v on when I went to bed was nice so that I could lay down and relax and watch some t.v before I went to bed. However about a month ago I had to move and it took about a week to get the cable turned on so there was no t.v to watch at night. I found that I slept a lot better and got more sleep without a t.v in my room. I never thought that I wouldn't want a t.v in my room but now I have taken mine out and don't plan on putting it back in there. If I want to watch some t.v I go to my living room. I never knew how much more sleep I would feel like I had by simpily not having the t.v on.

I was probably the light bouncing off the walls that was keeping you awake, even if it was just something subconscious. The movement and everything.

It would really make you sleep well without the tv,that is minus the light and sound emitting from it. So don't better think twice on putting back your tv in your bedroom.

That's what can happen when you are addicted, i mean if there was a certain program that you would watch every night then that is the reason why it kept you awake.
I do not have TV in my room and don't bother going to the living room to watch that little box, especially those boring soapies and dramas.
But there is a new kid in your room, your computer can also keep you awake for hours, i mean with the computer which has internet access like yours and mine then we will always be connected and needing new information everyday unlike tv where you know what's coming next.
T.v can be addictive but i think the computer can be MORE addictive that the t.v.I find myself waking up at 05:00 and going to sleep at 23:30, now what do you call that? addiction.

It is actually proven that when you are ready to go to bed instead of watching T.V. you should snuggle up with a book. Because the T.V. will actually make you want to stay awake from the I can't think of the word but it is what the t.v. emits off when you are watching it. Which is why you probably get more sleep without it on because although it makes you sleepy it also makes you rest less. I am the kind of person that has to sleep with a fan on. If I do not have my fan I would not get any sleep. I have even gone as far as bringing a small little bedside along with me on trips because I just can not stand the quiet. Anyways I have never been able to sleep with the T.V. on. I hope this was helpful!
