For me: noticed, even if it is not too cold, but too warm, I need a blanket to fall asleep. The weight of the blanket makes it more comfortable, I guess? 🛌

    For those who need the weight of a blanket, they should make a loose chainmail blanket for hot days.

    Still, it’s better with a blanket, it’s like saying the brain feels protected. Of course, I slept without a blanket, but for that you have to be incredibly tired, so much so that you won’t care where and how you sleep, even in a barn, as long as it is quiet and nothing disturbs.

    I need it to sleep comfortably, but airconditioning is not common here so when it’s 28 degrees Celsius inside the blanket gets yeeted. Having all balcony doors open without really any light cover and sleeping on a bed without any cover feels very exposed. But at lest it makes it somewhat bearable. This is only like 3 days a year tho, I really try to avoid it

    I need at least sheets that are thick enough not to let light through, not super thin sheets. It’s annoying in summer months. I need my feet covered because I’m paranoid about mosquitos though it’s rare for them to actually get inside and I need my head/eyes covered as well or it just doesn’t feel right, partly about light and muffling noise.

    And for me it’s definitely a horizontal sleeping thing too. Propped up I can fall asleep while being only partially covered or hardly at all but horizontal I have to have it.

    No. I need a blanket. Specifically my heavy weighted Mexican tiger blank, all year long, even through peak summer heat.

      I’m so weird about this. If I’m sitting or slightly reclined, I can sleep fine without a blanket. Once I’m horizontal, 100% need a blanket

    No. I will sweat my entire bag off over the night to have a blanket. I have been laying ice packs around my bed every night recently, to offset my weird blanket insanity.

    During the summer months, pretty much all that is on my bed is a fitted sheet and a bed sheet covering me.

    I live in mid Minnesota (US).

    I’m more or less with you, I need a blanket. For slightly different reasons though.

    I have to feel some sort of texture when I sleep, otherwise I get bad dreams of falling from high places if I’m sleeping on/under silky smooth surfaces.

    Every summer I have to re-learn how to sleep without a blanket. I used to turn on the air conditioner so my room is cool enough to sleep with a blanked before I realized that’s dumb as hell.

    Room temperature above 24°C, no blanket. Above 26°C, I don’t even need a sheet, but I’ll usually keep it, because cold air from the A/C sometimes disturbs me.

    I know plenty of people who insist on cooling their room at night so that they can be comfortable under a blanket.

    I need something to cover my ear as I sleep on my side due to…anxiety? Autism? Some terrible deep thing I don’t know about? So blanket it is.

    This is painful in the summer.

    I can sleep more places (I’ll place my hand over my ear) but because I’m contorted it won’t be a good or long sleep.

      I converted sweat pants into shorts and the length i took off i was able to fold in half inside of itself so it made a double layered tube. It’s been a great sleepy mask because it covers ears and eyes thoroughly without making my head too hot. Maybe this can be an option for you?

        I’ve tried doing that with headphones that are a band, basically, and I move too much and the thing either yeets off the top of my head or gets uncomfortable and twisty. I could try with different fabric maybe.
