Blackpill [STUDY] Human touch makes us feel happy and relaxed, couples sleeping together have better REM sleep, autistic people are hormonally sleep impaired

"Why do you care about sex and relationships??? "

Simply sleeping in the same bed as your gf/wife will improve your sleep. Simply being touched by someone will release hormones that will relax you, make you feel happy and positive and thus also help you to sleep

"Results: As compared to sleeping individually, co-sleeping was associated with about 10% more REM sleep, less fragmented REM sleep (p = 0.008), longer undisturbed REM fragments (p = 0.0006), and more limb movements (p = 0.007)."

Spoiler: Some benefits of REM sleep

This is interesting but from what I've read they don't really have a clear explanation as for why this is the case

I have a hypothesis which i will back up with studies:

Hypothesis: Bed-sharing couples sleep better because of human touch. Human touch produces serotonin which is a precursor of melatonin, the hormone of sleep


Let's back up the fact that simple human touch will increase your serotonin level

In studies in which cortisol was assayed either in saliva or in urine, significant decreases were noted in cortisol levels (averaging decreases 31%). In studies in which the activating neurotransmitters (serotonin and dopamine) were assayed in urine, an average increase of 28% was noted for serotonin and an average increase of 31% was noted for dopamine.

The decrease in cortisol and increase in dopamine are already interesting but it is the serotonin increase that interests me the most

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is associated with relaxation, positivity, a sense of feeling good etc. It's the happiness drug of our body.
That alone sounds like it would help you sleep right? Well it gets better: serotonin is a precursor of melatonin, the hormone of sleep (see pic below)

Melatonin regulates our circadian rythm (the body's internal clock in layman's terms) and it is the key to good sleep. Melatonin is often used to treat sleep disorders or to promote a better sleep. I've put 2 studies on melatonin in the spoiler if you're interested

[Caesercel]

I hate touching another person while sleeping

 

[coldmachinery]

The autism bit is interesting. My sleeping is very erratic. The human touch thing is a no brainer.

The autism bit is interesting. My sleeping is very erratic. The human touch thing is a no brainer.

Autistic people can't even sleep in peace, so brutal

You should try melatonin tho

 

[Total Imbecile]

This is why suicide is the only way to feel at peace if youre autistic

Not even being knocked out or sleeping helps

 

[grondilu]

Simply being touched by someone will release hormones that will relax you,

I know it and I've written about it before :

"What I want to say is this : this simple contact, this desirable woman snuggling up against my body, it immediately calmed me in a way that is hard to describe. [...] in the first few seconds it really felt like I was recharging something that was missing in my body and mind."

Brutal as fuck because it wasn't even a hug or anything that deep yet it had such a profound effect

 

[Autismus Maximus]

I got a bodypillow to cuddle up to. Definitely improved my sleep.

I might get a heating blanket or something one day to stuff in there, to improve coping quality.

 

[curryboy420]

[Atavistic Autist]

The closest approximation to cuddling for autists is NEETdom.

 

[Tonguestim]

Yeah I think it's oxytocin directly that helps you. Some studies even show that it helps you heal faster

 

[SadLonelySingle]

Maybe if I close my eyes really hard then my brain won't notice how pathetic my reality is

Late, but anyways, good post.

When I was younger and I moved into a bigger house I'd sleep with my parents some times because going to sleep was infinitely better, and simply knowing that someone else is beside you was enough to get me feeling comfortable. I never knew why but this post has a good explanation for the sensation.

Also, sleeping together with someone besides increasing your quality of sleep will also improve your relationship with said person, your work habits and your attitude:

Do People Sleep Better With a Partner?

There are several factors that can interrupt our sleep. Namely, a loud or restless partner can be a recipe for a bad night (or the impetus for sleep divorce, as it was in my case).

I am tired all the time and always find myself staying up until 8 am eventually. I then have to stay up all day to reset my sleep schedule which is miserable, I drink so much caffeine and I have anxiety so it makes me so anxious , it makes me feel so garbage I genuinely would rather just keep a fucked sleep schedule.

Same. I have mild insomnia. It's very hard for me to fall asleep quickly unless I purposely deprive myself of sleep to reset my schedule. I wake up multiple times throughout the night and can't seem to fall asleep and stay asleep. Especially in the summer when the climate rises. I feel exhausted and tired all the time even after waking up from 8.5 hours of sleep but I'm used to it. I'm probably not gonna outlive my father tbh. A fucked sleep schedule can chip off years to your life overtime. Leads to a ton of other health problems too

And it always still feels like there's zero time in the day to study/even get things done. It goes by so fast when you have important deadlines to meet. At least for me. Why did humans needs this much sleep? I wish we could survive off 4 hours or less

There's a drug for narcoleptics, name starts with an X but I forgot the name. It supposedly makes you hit REM sleep immediately allowing you to sleep only a couple of hours per day and feel great.

But it costs 6 figures per year jfl

Edit: It's Xyrem i think

Damn. Maybe that's what CEOs and large business owners take to be more productive and efficient during the day. I always wondered how they had so much time in the day to get 2-3 days worth of work done within one day. I used to question if they were human at all because of the lack of sleep it'd require to be that on top of things lol. A lot of them used to just tell people "wake up early and go to bed early and you'll get more done in the day" lol. I did this and technically it's only true for school. I noticed my study habits did get better so it only really applies to school for me. In terms of work, work is work so it doesn't really matter considering not everyone has a typical 9-5 work day (and most people I know are already sleep deprived from fast-paced, anxiety inducing life). And normies say our ancestors had it worse than us JFL

This guy is an expert on sleep and said there's a very rare gene that allows people to sleep 3-4 hours and be fine, whereas 99% of people don't function well with less than 7 hours (even if they don't realize it). He said many CEOs have this gene. Don't have the timestamp tho

Just ask anyone here that has had to deal with loud noise at night from others and being unsuccessful in getting them to stop. That's why this goes beyonds getting laid.
