Poll Do You Sleep With Alot Of Covers?

[FightingLily]

I voted no. I get hot easily, most times just one comforter will do unless it is extremely cold out. BUT I do have to have the bed with one side against a wall, and I have to have a dim light on.

Feeling Cold

This is an interesting poll! I just told my therapist that I have always believed myself to be "cold-natured". But even with layers of covers, I often felt cold anyway. But after a lot of reflection I realized this is not being "cold". This is an emotion from my past, that continues to manifest itself. After being traumatized by my father, I would lie in bed under the covers and shake. My father didn't like the sound of crying, so I had to keep quiet. I kept everything bottled up. I felt a shakey vulnerable feeling, like when you feel a chilly in cold weather. I still experience this feeling even though I am an adult. Strange huh? Apparently I need to "process" my past in order to get rid of this feeling. I am working on it.

No, I don't sleep with a lot of covers...but I do tend to "cocoon" with the ones I do use, lying on my side and using my body to pin them down around me tightly.

Feather down for me during Spring, Fall and Winter. Summer is high thread count sheets. At work in Winter it's heavy wool blankets and the heater cranked up to 30c in my stateroom.

i always have a flannel set of sheets - and blankets only when it's cold.

No, I have one blanket and one furry one for the day. I do like to have a lot of pillows.

I have never felt safe under just a sheet. I can nap without covers if I'm not in bed, but I tend to feel very insecure if I don't have a comforter over me. I have to trust somebody a whole lot for it to be okay with me for them to be around me while I'm sleeping.

I sleep with a ton of covers.. it makes me feel safer from what happened. I was held up at gunpoint and I cannot ever sleep, so I feel that the covers will some how help me get some kind of sleep

Yes- love the weight and warmth (but I am usually cold).
Have to sneak one foot out sometimes though. :)

I sleep on top of the covers so that I can move quickly.

I Gotta have that blanket....no matter what temperature it is. It makes me feel less exposed.
