    Who are you before and after you go to sleep?

    I hate those sites where you have to click next five times to read the whole thing, so I'm simply going to copy it in here. They can sod their click rating.



    We all have to sleep, right? But that doesn't mean we all sleep the same way. The surprising thing you probably didn't know is that the way you sleep really speaks volumes about who you are as a person.

    If you thought your sleeping habits were odd, think again. Mariah Carey surrounds herself with 15 humidifiers to cause a steam-room like effect while Charles Dickens slept facing north, which he believed improved his creativity.

    Those eccentric habits probably reveal way too much about those celebs and how weird they are, but even just the position in which you sleep can say a lot about you.
    The Foetus (41%):

    If you prefer the fetal position while you're dosing off, you're part of the 41% of people who sleep this way, according to sleep specialist Chris Idzikowski. It's the most common and preferred way of sleeping.

    This position is preferred by people who have a tough exterior shell but who are in fact very shy and sensitive on the inside. Overthinking and worrying are two traits that fetal position sleepers possess.


    The Log (15%):

    The log position is the second most popular position among sleepers.

    Those who sleep like this are very social and easygoing people who prefer to hang around an A-list crowd. Log sleepers are very trusting which can come across as being gullible.


    The Yearner (13%):

    The yearner and the log look fairly similar but the yearner has their arms outstretched in front of them.

    Studies show that people who choose to sleep this way are inviting and open but can also be suspicious and cynical. They also aren't the best at making decisions and take their sweet time, but once they make up their minds, they're extremely stubborn in changing it.


    The Soldier (8%):

    All those who sleep stiff on their back tend to be the strong, silent types who don't like a lot of drama. They're serious and structured, which includes having high expectations for themselves and the people they surround themselves with. Those who sleep on their back like this tend to be snorers.


    The Freefaller (7%):

    The freefaller sleeps on their stomachs with their head to the side and their arms wrapped around the pillow. These people have open and playful personalities, but they can also come off as brash. Even though they may seem free-spirited, they're secretly anxious and enjoy being in control. Freefallers are also sensitive to the criticism of others. According to professor Idzikowski, this position is also good for digestion.


    The Starfish (5%):

    This is the least popular of all the sleeping positions. These people sleep on their back with their legs stretched out and their arms stretched out near their head.

    Those who sleep like this are loyal friends and keep friendships a top priority in their lives. They're good listeners and will go out of their way to help others.

    Who are you before and after you go to sleep?

    I'm in the 41%. I can not for the love of me fall asleep like the soldier. My better half is Freefaller/Starfish and often does a nightly dance between all six of them. I've received a number of elbows in my ribs waking me up to stand alert like war broke out.

      This is all fucking bollocks. You sleep in whatever position you feel most comfortable in, and it says fuck all about you.

        Obviously.

          But the foetus can't be good for the back. I have a tendency to almost double fold like an army knife at times.

            None of those.

            I used to be a Soldier, or a back-lying Freefaller, until I started snoring. Now the only thing that works is the Recovery Position to left or right. Those two are the only ways I know I won't roll onto my back and snore.

              The Freefaller and the Starfish, or as they're more commonly known, the Drunk.

                Freefaller, usually, before waking up in the foetal position and realising I've knacked my back again. Mind you, I never sleep long, so it's verging on the academic.

                  One of the other 11% - somewhere between the Log and the Starfish but depends on various factors, mostly which various twinges I have developed that day.

                    I go to sleep as a foetus and wake up as a starfish.
