When I visited my sister, I could not sleep. Not because of anything but because of the lights. They lights in the the dining room along with the rooms were all on. I shared the room then with my niece and according to her, she could not sleep with lights off. I wanted to cry because I wanted my dark room when I went to bed. That was the last time I slept in their house. lol
What about you?

No dark room is good since lights distracts me a night during sleep and can cause too much warmth.

@cacay1 I know that dark is important for a good rest and for the brain to recover and rebuild its cells. I wanted total darkness when I was young. Now I can stand a dim light coming inside when we have a full moon, but it must be really a very dim light.

Oh I can relate with you! I cant sleep without my dark room. It must be difficult to you to sleep in that condition. But I appreciate you to bare with it for your niece. I usually will cover my body or at least my head with blanket or pillow if I must share room with someone who cant sleep with light off. Maybe you can do this, or perhaps did you already do this? Hahaha
Anyway have I nice day!

Sometimes I fall asleep while the light in my headboard is still turned on. *shrug* I just forget to turn it off before falling asleep.
The only other light in the house is the one in the hallway between my bedroom, Pretty's bedroom and the bathroom at the end of the hall. (We had to put a nightlight in the hallway not long after we moved into this house. We had a mirror on the wall by the bathroom door. I woke up one night and went to the bathroom. I saw someone moving in the hall... thinking someone had broken into the house I punched him. *sigh* I cut my hand on the broken glass and we installed a nightlight.)

I like lights off. I've got my eye mask though for sleeping in in a sunny day.

I sleep with lights out normally. It saves energy too. But I doze off with lights on at other times.

@Janet357 We dont turn on the lights during daytime. But at night I tend doze off especially when tired or stressed. I would tell myself I will just lie down in bed and then wake up and its morning LOL.

I like when it is dark and only then I can sleep. But if I am alone at home I turn on lights everywhere so I can sleep then xD

I can manage to sleep with bright lights on and lights off. But I always prefer off. It's either I sleep with a small glow of light from LED or totally dark.

i guess you're kinda spoiled haha
i sleep with lights off, but when i'm in dorm i share the room with my roommate and sometimes she stays up all night doing something for college and she keeps the light on - i still manage to fall asleep.
i used to be bothered by the parties people have in my dorm, but now not even that bothers me.

I cannot sleep with any light on, even the streetlights outside are enough to keep me awake. I would have wanted to cry too in your situation.
