Has anyone here successfully fallen asleep while hungry? L

[pleaseinsertdisctwo]

I'm trying to change my rating schedule but it's uh not working out

by the time I'm trying to sleep I start getting hungry and I start panicking that I'll never fall asleep if I don't eat before sleeping

Has anyone tried sleeping while hungry... and did it work out?

thank u

 

[El Bombastico]

I once fell asleep with food in my mouth. Almost choked to death...

[jman1954goat]

try growing up poor

many nights

 

[echoshifting]

Yes I have fallen asleep while very hungry

What kind of a question even is this lol. L indeed.

 

[Cross-Section]

Depends on whether I get grumpy-hungry or sleepy-hungry

 

[alexlf]

Every night. Great skill to have when trying to keep a healthy weight.

 

[BrokenFiction]

When I was poor in college I would just sleep through meals sometimes, yep.

 

[Akira86]

drink water.

and don't pee in the bed.

 

[Futureman]

Sometimes I'll smoke weed and have BIG TIME munchies but force myself to go to sleep so I don't just eat b 1,000 calories in snacks.

 

[Altrich]

of course I did, kinda sounds like a first world problem but okay...

 

[MonthOLDpickle]

yea I learned it from childhood. Not because I was poor but I was too busy to eat lol

 

[Ecotic]

It's happened to me before that I've been both too sleep-deprived to eat and too hungry to sleep. I thought it was going to be how I died.

 

[TissueBox]

Nobody should go to sleep hungry, but unfortunately many do. Call this number now to give.

(In all seriousness, here's to the far off, distant day that world hunger is corralled to more operable levels.)

G'LUCK TUMMIES..!! *wink*

 

[Foltzie]

Drink a small glass of water.

 

[Teiresias]

I remember being content falling asleep hungry since it meant maybe I wouldn't be overweight anymore.

 

[The Adder]

Going to sleep is my defense mechanism against hunger.

 

[astro]

This is a really tone deaf thread, OP, not exactly the best way to put it [if there is even a good way)...

I've been poor enough that I went to bed hungry and it's pretty horrible.

 

[Jeenaud]

Being hungry legit helps me sleep so yeah.

 

[Mortemis]

Pretty often. Just drink some water.

 

[PennyStonks]

This is insulting...

 

[Slick Butter]

i would just eat some pickles (or pickled peppers!) and drink water when i got too hungry before bed when I started losing weight.

 

[Strike]

Used to do it all the time in high school.

 

[vhoanox]

I force myself to sleep because I dont have anything to eat sometimes.

 

[dhlt25]

yep, it's all in your head. Take a while to get used to it but eventually the hunger go away quickly. Try drink a cup of water before bed. It helps

 

[Deleted member 3010]

When it happens and I'm too hungry I try to eat something good like a fruit and then a tall glass of water to fill that void.

 

[sfedai0]

Yea its not a choice when youre poor.

[Deleted member 6263]

We did it often as a family growing up.

 

[FPX]

I'm going to bed hungry tonight.

 

[iWannaHat]

man when I was in college I'd have sleep for dinner at least once a week. Being poor blows

 

[BLEEN]

Eat the L.

 

[ItchyTasty]

I think it's a habit/mental thing? When do you usually eat your last meal?

 

[Auron Kale]

Plenty of times, usually due to being exhausted from work...

The worst part for me is that when I eat my breakfast after going to sleep hungry & waking up hungry, it's always a struggle to actually eat said breakfast.

 

[sirap]

Yeah, we could only eat once a day so I'm pretty used to it.

 

[Squarehard]

Yes, but then I just wake up early, and need food.

 

[subpar spatula]

I can but I choose not to.

 

[Glasfrut]

When I was poor in college I would just sleep through meals sometimes, yep.

Click to shrink...

Yeah. Not like I had a choice at the time.

 

[Giever]

Yeah, in fact I have to do it a lot lately. I've found that melatonin really does help, by the way.

 

[Speely]

Lots of times. It sucks. But poor people still need sleep.

Try taking water instead. About a glass should work. I gulp down a litre. Sigh.

 

[Coyote Starrk]

No I havent. Not consistently anyway so I usually just have a light snack before bed. Maybe a sandwich or some cereal.

 

[kirby_fox]

I had to do this before with shifting schedules.

I drank a bunch of water instead of eating. No calories, full stomach so I can't eat. And if all else fails and I can't sleep, I take a generic benadryl or two.
