I usually fall asleep while my television is on, if I feel very sleepy already I just turn the volume down. I like to sleep when the lights are off and the only light that gives the room is the one from my television. I don't know why, but I can't sleep easily if the television is off.

Hello there!
I was like that before when I am still in Manila renting. During my off, I slept most of the day. I will be able to wake up at 7pm. There I will watch teleserye and will feel sleepy again. I didn't want to happen. I just fell asleep. Lol.
Thanks!

Lol. Actually that concerns me too about the tv problem. I don't use it at day time so maybe its just okay. Thank you for posting.

I don't sleep with the tv on. However, my daughter does and I often get mad at her because the electricity bill goes up because of this.

Oh, I don't mind if I sound like your mom. I think all moms feel this way if they are the ones paying the bill. The sorry thing is, unlike you, my daughter can't pay her own bills because she's still in elementary school. (",)

No offense meant but You definitely sound like my mom. I have my own room but she sometimes check on me and if she caught me sleeping while my tv is on then I'm in big trouble the following morning. It is a concern for a month until I decided I'll pay for the electric bill so that I won't have be scolded everytime. :)

I really cannot sleep if the television is on. I am always tempted to watch it so I would always turn it off when I want to sleep. I am the kind of person who cannot sleep easily, distraction always hamper my effort to sleep well. So when I want to sleep, I turn of the lights since even the presence of light would irritate me. So the television has to be turned off also to insure that I can have a good night sleep.

In my case, I don't let my television on while I am asleep. I am just enabling the sleep timer function. I love watching movies at night. Movies that are scheduled during the night are usually great. 
However, whenever I am very tired and need a sleep right away, of course I won't bother opening the television anymore.

Yeah, you're right movie schedules at night are usually great. I don't put the sleep timer, I'd do just that now. Thank you and merry Christmas.

I don't. I can't stand noise or light when I sleep. Only peace and quiet lets me sleep.

I don't usually leave the television on, when I go to sleep. It's not something that I generally have the habit of doing. However, sometimes, when my husband and I aren't together, for whatever reason, sometimes I may leave the television on to help me fall asleep. But it's only on occasion, when I really can't sleep.
