I can fall asleep almost anywhere. I routinely fall asleep in the break room at work. Once, I was helping a friend fix his car, and I fell asleep on his garage floor when he went inside to get water.
But in a hot metal tube tearing through the sky, with my neck all kinked? Get out of here, man.
I rarely sleep longer than 90 minutes at a time, unless I’m physically exhausted already. And yes, the neck hurts, but exhaustion hurts more.
Can you fall asleep in a car? You know those metal cages tearing down roads where more people get killed than in those metal tunbes tearing through the sky…
If you’re comparing the comfort of a car to the comfort of a plane, you must be riding in the rich people seats.
This is a comfort issue. I don’t care about getting killed.
Oh. Calling if a metal tube tearing through the sky made me think you objected more to the concept than the comfort, despite your kinked neck reference. Guess I misread.
1-2mg of Melatonin, remain motionless with eyes closed for ~20 minutes, you’ll be out like a light. Make sure you take a smaller dose - most gummies are 5 or 10 mg, it honestly works better if you subdivide.
Headphones in, zone out, drift off, wake up with a crooked neck.
The noise of the engines tends to help me. Same with sleeping on a long car journey. They hum or white noise or whatever of the engine and the road really help. Also why I like to sleep with a fan on. Not only to help cool down. But also because the noise really gets me to fall asleep sooner.
