Freefaller isn the worst sleepig position ever. It crushes your internal organs. I've tried The Log but I can't sleep straight on my side like that. Soldier, Starfish, The Foetus and the Yearner are all good thought

I don't even care, none of them work for me.

It takes me atleast an hour to fall asleep usually

soldier and starfish.

your balls are free as fuark which gives you the chance to produce as much as testosterone.

I almost always sleep like this, but I've referred to it as "the vampire" rather than "the mummy." I used to rock the "reverse vampire", which is the same position but on your stomach instead, but quick due to trying to minimize acne.

>sleeping on your stomach

I don't remember the last time I slept alone, been about a year. Always cuddle bae

>Not sleeping with a sex partner
low test as fuck Anon.

>lowers cortisol
>improves testosterone production
>relieves general stress
Unless your partner is just a ball of annoying habits, it's better to sleep with them.
>>
I'm the yearner, I generally grab onto the pillow as I cry myself to sleep every night.
>>
Foetus because I have the mind of a child.
>>
>>37306619
lol i used to have my dad tuck me like a burrito while i lay in this position.

Can confirm. I'm a freefaller and a faggot.

The Yearner and Freefaller are the best positions, hands down

sleeping on your back is the hardest and the most alpha

I used to sleep soldier and I used to lucid dream all the time. Shit got uncomfortable

Now I sleep on my stomach with hands under pillow. No more lucid dreaming and getting some comfortable good sleep

Bodypillows aren't heavy enough to numb my arm anon.

This

+ putting your hand inside her pajamas and gently coodling her boobs as you slowly sink into sleep

Feels good mane

I used to sleep on my stomach but it began to hurt my back. Now I sleep foetus.
>>
>>37306567
I've been trying to sleep soldier more recently but tend to mix it up all the time. I'll swap positions every 10-15 minutes until one of them works.
>>
>>37308572
Honestly sleeping with my gf I have to have my other arm beneath her or in any other position it'll get numb as there's not enough space for it really otherwise. I dunno how you can get numb hand that easily, maybe you're skinny or something? My gf is tall and kinda swole and even if she uses my arm as a pillow it doesn't get numb at all but if I keep my arm upright in an elevated position it starts to get numb quite fast.

When i did this i had the worst sleep paralysis dreams

>somebody (or like something) is present and i can only hear the screeching sound that's piercing my eardrums
Aware of almost everything (kinda like vr) but still can't wake up
When i wake up i end up covered in sweat

Now i'm paranoid about sleeping soldier
That is some fucked up shit

Soldier when I don't feel like sleeping with a pillow, Fetus when I do
>>
>>37306627
Ironically, sleeping on my back helped improve these things. Just use a pillow designed for back sleeping and put a pillow under your knees to keep your back in a more neutral position.
>>
Whats the best way to change my sleeping position?
>>
>>37309407
I had nightmares and shit when I first started sleeping on my back, but now I find it far superior.

Protip: don't put your arms across your chest. Keep them at your sides.
>>
>>37306619
I always called my sleeping position "The Mummy." It is like the soldier, but I cross my ankles and either put my hands on my stomach or crossed over my chest. Between growing up as po' folk with a twin bed, then living in the dorms with a college twin, and finally a year sleeping in the narrow bunks in the barracks I was forced to sleep like that just to fit on the mattress.

Used to sleep pillowless in soldier position for a couple years.
Was by far the best my posture has been in my life, looked and felt more confident, and healthier.

However it usually takes a couple hours for me to fall asleep like that, and I get impatient, so eventually went back to pillow.
Back to freefaller / yearner now.
>>
>>37312502
I sleep with 4 pillows. I use one firm one as a base and a soft one on top of it to rest my head on, then one against my shoulders/back so I don't roll over and start snoring, and finally one big, cushy one to hug because I'm a faggot and miss cuddling my ex.

Life is pain.
>>
I'm most comfortable in freefall position but I've forced myself to sleep on my back since it's supposed to be better to sleep on your back

I usually have to cross my hands over my heart because I don't feel comfortable with my chest exposed. Feels like someone's going to sneak in and stab me in the heart
