I sleep with my cell phone because i'm disabled and don't have a very loud voice so i call people when i need help therefore i cant turn off my phone when i'm sleeping because sometimes it takes me a minute to turn it back on and take a lot of muscle control to do that. It's not worth the effort at least you can turn your phone off

oh I'm a noon sleeper as well. and also hate it already if somene wakes me up while taking a nap let alone call me, but so far I still managed to answer all my phone calls without yelling at anyone lol I dont turn off my cell simply because I really never do it anyway, because there always could be some time when you get some important call, so I'm rather available all the time. But if you really can't stand someone interrupting you in your case I guess it's best you turn it to silent mode or even turn it off if vibrating bothers you :)

hi abj since your friends know not to call you when its your sleeping tim, they should be kind enough not to call. So keep your cell phone turned off til you get your sleep. I do not have a cell phone and sleep at night but have worked shifts where I slept in the day time and it really annoyed me to be called when I was trying to sleep.

I hate it too. That's why I dont keep it close to me when I am taking a nap in the afternoon cause my nap is a very essential part of my day that if I dont have it, it makes me crazy. No one can has the right to disturb me when I sleep.

I don't use my phone that often so I expect nothing from my phone especially when I sleep but I always turn it on for emergency purposes and also my alarm clock in the morning, someway somehow I can relate to you specially when you don't have that much sleep and someone kept disturbing you then that's awful.

Yah! its a little bit annoying,but how about those people that was not aware of your sleeping habit, how about the emergency situation. I suggest better put your cell on your closet, don't turn it off,just the sound. So that you cannot miss the important messages. If is really important they will leave the message through text messaging.

That has never happened to me because I turn off my phone before I go to bed. There are times I forget to turn it off but so far that has never happened. I don't get upset easy so I probably wouldn't get too upset. Also, turning off your phone saves battery life so you don't have to charge it as often so the batteries last longer.

Hi abj163, Any ringing phone is annoying if you are trying to sleep or trying to get any chores done. We are in charge of this situation though, we can choice to leave the cellphone on or send the calls directly to the message center. Your friends, those who still call you at the time you have asked them not, do not respect your wishes. If you yelling at them has not stopped them from calling, the best thing to do is to shut it off and let the friends wait for you nap to be finished. I don't know about you, but I only have friends and relatives call me on my cellphone. Therefore, if it rings in the middle of the night I know it is someone that I want to talk to. No business calls on my phone, it would be ringing all times of day and night. Good Luck getting that nap in.

When it comes to me,I will probably be upset or sometimes my temper gets up too.Once a friend of mine called when I was sleeping deeply,I told the cell and answered something .I knew he wasn't purpose but it did annoy me.So I turn off my phone or keep the silent mode every time I go to bed.Above all,we should keep our mind happy and dont get upset easily:)
