Title: Do you ever fall asleep in a chair sitting up?
Post by: Dynamite2013 on July 19, 2014, 02:36:57 am
Frequently when I am on the computer I will doze off and wake up 2 to 3 hours later and then finish whenever I was doing. If I am watching TV I better record it because if I don't I will fall asleep and miss the ending. But if I lay in bed I will lay there for even an hour before I even feel like dozing off.  Do you ever fall asleep in a chair sitting up?

Normally, no. Then again, I am usually sitting on my couch or bed whenever I am on my laptop. I will say this though: whenever I watch a program that interests me, I try to make sure that I am sitting up for it (whether in bed or on a couch) because if I lie down, I am guaranteed to fall asleep during the program. I hate that.  >:(

My husband will come in in the afternoon and sit at the computer for a while and I'll look over to find him sleeping sitting up at the computer so you're not alone.

I have fallen asleep on the loveseat when watching tv.  I usually end up scrunching down and finally just laying down.

I have never fallen asleep while at the computer.  I think my neck would get extremely sore if i fell asleep sitting up straight.

Well if falling asleep in the car counts then yes. And I woke up with my neck cramping. But if I am sitting at home and my head starts to bob I will usually jerk it back up.

Never fall asleep at the computer, its a different story if I sit in the blue chair, all I have to do sit down and out like a light for about 30 minutes.

I think I have only dozed off once or twice at the computer and as soon as my head drops it wakes me up but I fall asleep sitting on the couch nearly every night.  Sometimes that means my dogs get a late dinner.

No I have never fallen asleep at the computer. However if I sit down in the sofa, there is a possibility that my eyes will start to get heavy, then I convince myself if I lay down, I will have more strength to keep my eyes open! Yeah right! 50 minutes later I wake up to find the commercials on and I missed my program. I get ever so annoyed with myself, not so much because I missed the program but because I have to winch myself out of the chair and walk about 20 feet to my bedroom. And then I am awake again!

Never fell asleep at the computer. One the chair is not the most comfortable. It is hubby's. I won't let him use my chair when he is on the computer. But if he is not going to be home for a stretch I will move ming from my desk and use it. But there are times I am in my chair watching TV or reading, lean my head back and I am gone, But only if I am really tired.

My husband annoys me no end!  He can fall asleep in less than 5 minutes after he goes to bed.  Sometimes it takes me hours, even if I felt like I was sleepy before going to bed.  Sometimes he will fall asleep in a chair in the evening, with his hand still around the remote or his iPad.  It's not fair!!  He has always been this way.   :)

I do, in an armchair. If I want to take a nap right after I eat, it's not healthy to lay down, so I sleep sitting up.

It happens to me when I sit by the windows. There is a cool breeze by the windows. When I feel the cool breeze, I fall asleep for a while.

If I'm extremely tired I do find myself falling asleep sitting in a chair while watching TV but this is only if exhaustion has gotten the best of me.  ;)

I do sometimes dose off on the rocking chair and sometimes o the couch while watching a movie with the family. I would say, watching a movie is very difficult for me. The moment the movie starts, my breathing starts slowing down to snoring and then off to lala land. I cannot sit still or finish watching a movie.

Yes, it does seem like I fall asleep in my recliner a lot.  I guess I get comfortable in the chair in front of the tv and the window fan and just doze off.

Fairly often. Many times while watching tv and sometimes at the computer. I have been so tired I've caught myself trying to nod off sitting at a red light. Not good..

I have never fallen asleep in a chair.  I would have to be dead tired or really sick and if I'm in that kind of shape I would be in bed.  My dad however can easily fall asleep in a chair.  I have caught him many times watching sports on TV and he is sound asleep.

No, unless I'm in a car or something.  I can pretty much fall asleep in most situations, so I probably can, but I haven't had it happen before.

I have family members who do it on a regular basis, but for me it'd have to be a car or something not a regular chair.

I sometimes get up in the militant I and get in my chair and go to sleep because I get heartburn and it's easier to sleep in my chair when I have heartburn than to lay down because the acid indigestion gets up my throat and fun way say in my chair it does not and I can sleep the rest of the night.

Oh yes, I've done this many times. I used to snooze at my desk in school all the time. I've also fallen asleep in the chair at the computer a few times. Usually though, if I'm asleep in a chair it's a comfortable armchair or recliner.

I have also fallen asleep at my computer.  In the fall and winter months when I spend more time online than any other time of year I push push push myself to the point of "I'll just rest my head"  Next thing I know I'm sleeping and I have an imprint on my forehead from my desk.  I've never slept for any length of time though.  I usually wake up after a couple of minutes and shut down and just go to bed.

I usually don't fall asleep sitting up by the computer. I try to get to bed before that happens. But it has happened before, especially when I've been up studying very late in the evening, or just staying up too late sometimes. I try to avoid that though. So I don't wake up with QWERTY on my forehead.

I have the ability to fall asleep pretty much at will only because sleep is a luxury for me. I work two full time jobs (have off tonight from one of them) that only allow me to sleep between four and five hours a night.  I take a fifteen minute break during the day and snooze in my car which usually refreshes me. I stay focused and unsleepy at night because my family depends on me to make as much cash as possible.  I have started working out for forty five minutes a day which has really helped my focus and diminished my need for eight hours of sleep per night. I have taken fifteen minute snoozes while sitting on subways-if I can do it there I can sleep sitting up anywhere!

Yes, I have. But, it is really rare for me to do so. Usually, the only time it happens is when I'm really exhausted or I'm sick. I have fallen asleep while sitting at the computer a few times, though.
