Yes, I do. I hate the heat.
I need to sleep with at least one cover on me, so when it's hot, it's unbearably warm for me because I need to sleep under some bed sheets. I feel strange without them.

I am the same as you i also need to sleep with something over me other wise i can not sleep either.No matter what you do it seems that you can not cool down to get off to sleep.With the heat aswell as lack of sleep it is awful, as it makes you feel tired the next day.

We have the same problem. I too is having a problem every time it is hot. Eventhough I already took shower the hot weather do not fail to give me problems. My sleep at night is on eleven pm but when it is hot I can give in to sleep at 3am because during that time the air becomes cold. It is uncomfortable when you have to wake up early because in the middle of your deep sleep you have to wake up.

i'd rather not sleep if it's too hot but nevertheless i can still sleep..i just don't prefer to sleep if it's too hot..well i'm glad that recently the temperature is already getting colder due to the rainy season but for the last 3 months it's been horrible..our electricity bill went on top because i can't managed a day without an aircon..

I too can't sleep if the room is hot, since last 10days the temp is always highter than 46 c, i have set the aircon in my bedroom at its lowest setting of 18c, but temp remains at 31c, i can sleep comfortably..
Thanks for sharing.
Welcome always.
Cheers.

WHen it's in the day, i actually find it more easier to sleep when the weather is hot.. haha =D I guess that's the time, whereby my body is accustomed to the heat outside, and thus i feel comfortable enough to sleep, just that i will wake up sweaty.. haha =D
BUt when it comes to night-time, there's no way i'm able to sleep when it's too hot, for i will be like u, tossing and turning, and by time i sleep,. it will be time to wake up too.. haha

I seem to sweat like a pig lately. I pull the quilt over me, then I get hot, then I get cold.

For some reason I seem to sleep better when it is hot! I have AC but I can't sleep with it on, I get too cold. Sometimes I will turn the ceiling fan on, and then in an hour or two I wake up and have to turn it off because I am cold again.
I usually sleep with at least a sheet on me. I feel more secure. Plus I usually get cold, so it helps if there is something over me.

It might be a case. But you can always turn on the A/C if you feel too hot during the summer time. Or a fan. If it won't help. I guess, you might need some sleep pills to help you with. Some sleepless night, I might resort to the sleeping pill.

Yeah I do. I feel so sticky because of too much sweating and it's itchy too.

I have the same problem when it is too hot, I always leave my bedroom window open a little but i live rural so it's safe to do that. i wouldn't recommend it in town. Do you do that funny thing of sticking one leg out of the duvet to try and cool down ? I do but don't know why but it seems to work lol.

me too. Last year for my birthday, my hubby got me a memory foam bed - ahh heaven. But it holds heat I swear to about 500 degrees! When it is hot, it stays hot!
This year for my birthday, he got me a between the sheets fan. It is awesome. it goes between your sheets and shoots cool air up. I love it. Only thing, they other night it was warm so I turned it on, got colder in the night and I could not figure out why I couldnt warm up! I had to actually wake up so I could turn it off. But otherwise, I love it!

That sounds great as i think i would love that in my bed, great for the summer.I find that during the night i wake up after a short while when i get really hot.Also it seems soo airless with the heat aswell so perhaps thats another reason why i wake up.

wow..that's a thing i got to find and use..i too having hard time to sleep at night if it is hot. nowadays, i had to sleep on the floor if the heat is too much to bear with the fan on for the whole night. but the things is, i had to get up in the middle of the night if the temperature begins to cool down.. and that really suck as i can't continue to sleep if i woke up. been having this problem since i was 18..

I definitely have a hard time sleeping when it is hot. Excessive heat can also give me headache, and I can never sleep away headaches, so that is another thing heat related that keeps me from resting. Humidity especially is bad because everything is sticky. It's bad enough being hot, but sticky hot to boot is very unpleasant.

I am like that all the time. I toss and turn all
night, if I did not move at night I would not get
any sleep. I lay for a period of time and get stiff
and be come wide awake. I may sleep three to four
hours at the most before having to move. Sometimes
when I wake up I feel like I have been run over by
a big truck.

I'm just so thankful that my husband really bought an ac for us coz i might be something like you, i will be like toss and turn all the time.. The only thing that I really hate of, is that when our area is having a brownout at night within 1 hour and that's the hardest thing that i can't really take coz you really need to use fan all the time... and you can't really sleep.. all you have to do is to wait until one hour...
