My little sister once told us that she sleeps.with her eyes open. My family was like uh no you dont we've seen you sleeping before. 100% convinced she said "yes I do, when I wake up my eyes are open"

I had that happen with morphine once. Watched the needle for the drip go in, looked away for a second, looked back and it was already being removed because my procedure was done.

Dude probably had to help his grandparents on the farm all day and was hyped and tired AF. Instant off switch.

I had the opposite happen to me once back in my early 20s

One time I was dead tired and could barely keep myself awake after working in an university assignment due the next day. I finished past midnight and went to bed at 1am, I recall watching the clock before going to sleep since I had to set up an alarm for 8am or something.

Thing is, I fell asleep immediately, then I woke up fully refreshed before my alarm went off, I woke up feeling amazing, fully awake and ready to go. Then I checked the time... 1:50am. Since I couldn't fall asleep again I watched some movies until my alarm went off and then went to class like nothing happened.

Yes, I was tired very early the next day, but I still think of that night from time to time

Meanwhile, narcoleptics be like: "First time?"

Had that when I had a surgery under general anesthesia. They injected something, for about 20 seconds nothing happened, and next moment I was in the ward and everything was already done. Just instant time skip.

I once had the exact opposite.

I voted Fidesz in 2010 with the hopes they will raise the age of consent. They lowered it to 12 if the older party is under 18.

I got so angry I was shaking, and veins on my forehead were visible, just like that meme. When I tried to sleep, it didn't work. I still tried to at least try, so I lay in the bed, seeing the sun rising. Eventually I had to go to college, after that finished, I slept for like 20 hours, and accepted my fell for it again award (they also didn't make it easier for college students to get apprenticeship, so ultimately I ended up without a college degree, as I couldn't get anything due to a multitude of factors).

fake: op left his house

gay: sleeps in same bed with his brother

You want to hear about a glitch? I once went to hospital, and it was a rough first night. The second night, I couldn't sleep so I'd figure I'd grab a book and try some reading. I opened the book, and the text was flipping symbols like the Matrix ... like each word was flipping. I couldn't read it so I returned the book.

fun tricks for anyone who wants to get to sleep quickly: consciously thinking of and trying to relax each of your muscles, from your face, to your shoulders, down your arms and into your fingertips and so on. Sometimes, you might be tensed up in some subtle way without realizing it, and part of falling asleep is getting fully relaxed. Do this in your head a few times if you need to, but this actually does help me fall asleep somewhat more quickly than just laying there and waiting. I remember reading somewhere this was how new sailors in the Navy learned to fall asleep at sea when they weren't used to a moving bed, but that could've been bullshit, feel free to research that yourself.

Another one is, start with your hands flat on your thighs or your stomach (this assumes you sleep on your back, so this one actually isn't very effective for me) and start tapping your hands down, alternating which hand, lightly on your body at a constant rhythm for a little bit, and then just gradually slow the rhythm down. This didn't really work well for me because I'm a side sleeper, but YMMV. This was one I got from some TED(x?) talk I'm too lazy to go find.

These might not help if you have like, chronic insomnia or something, but if you just want tomorrow to come faster instead of dwelling on every mistake you've ever made for ~20 minutes, they might work for you.

I've done something similar. Only once though. Sleep was like a straight up on/off switch with an instant jump in continuity awareness.

I have taken some fighting class where they taught us some techniques. After a few weeks of training the instructor put us through a scenario where he put on a RedMan suit and we had to fight him one by one.

When it was my turn, I remember walking towards him. Next thing I remember the fight was over. I was standing in front of the instructor who had been apparently repelled and said in an impressed tone "that was a great elbow".

None of the techniques he had taught us involved the elbow. I have no idea what I did but apparently it worked.

Grandparents lived in the country. Had the best night's sleep there as a kid. Put it down to the country air.

Had the same thing happen to me as a kid, however not the not tired part. Basically just went to bed like normal closed my eyes and bam morning. Never was able to reproduce it either.

That's not how sleep works. Also, i think i had this too at least once. Probably a memory glitch or something in the category of lucid dreaming (except not lucid).

I had that happen a few times when I was quite young. At least once, I did it on purpose. I had a sleepover with a friend and was excited for the next day and was impatient for the next day to arrive now. I fell asleep and woke up the next day seemingly instantly. No dreams. No perception of passage of more than like a second of time. Just instant morning.

I have one. I got this pair of slippers as a present once, best alippers ever, I always wore them. Slip them off to go to bed one night, put them in their usual spot, next morning they are gone. Nothing else out of place or moved. My roommate was out of town and I was alone for the week. I tore the place apart trying to find them, checked everywhere, looked through all the trash. They were just gone, never to be seen again. Pretty sure it was a wizard.

Was it an off switch or do you just forget the time it took you to fall asleep?

Maybe he's had a good sleep. Children could sleep so easily and soundly. But it does sound like time really is perception.

I've had a similar experience except my eyes seem to be open? The first time it happened, I woke up and just stared at the ceiling. My mind was completely blank and it was very peaceful. I think I've done it for maybe one hour after realising what happened but it felt very quick. The second time it happened was on another occasion when i also stared at the ceiling. It seems to only happen when i stare at a completely white surface.

I have anendophasia which means I have little to no internal voice. Maybe I have done meditation by accident because of just how my mind works. When i do try to meditate, I don't get a completely blank mind, but when i don't even try I achieved it somehow.

I mean, these things happen to only a small subset of people so I can understand where the frame of reference gets skewed for you normies. For instance, every time my aunt babysat me, I'd immediately find myself in another place after dinner. Everything would hurt from the cold, but the police would help me get back home and even they couldn't explain it to me, a "very brave kid" in their own words. Explain that, liberals.
