    I've wanted to be filmed sleeping bc I get told all the time that I talk in my sleep. When I was still in school as a german major I'd speak german in my sleep and freak out my roommate. Wish I would have been recorded!

    I'd never be able to. I wouldn't be able to fall asleep. If I'm not in my own room with my fan on low, cotton in my ears, melatonin, door closed, I don't sleep. The slightest noise or movement startles me awake if I am asleep.

    Even then if I'm anxious, upset, worried, over tired, or anything other than calm and relaxed, I won't sleep.

    If I thought I was being watched or recorded they would have to drug me to do the test.

    Oh, sure, I've done the sleep apnea test. The nurses were very nice and it didn't seem overly creepy at the time. But it's not very restful, that's for sure. Especially if they do the sleep-deprivation narcolepsy test afterwards, which I'm pretty sure violates the Geneva convention.

    I want to do a sleep test/filming now just to see what it's like. I've made many a boyfriend/ex/family member/roommate jealous at my ability to fall asleep in seconds flat

    I did a sleep study once, and at first it seemed a bit creepy & uncomfortable. Knowing that I have issues with falling asleep in GOOD conditions, I decided to pull an all-nighter (easy for me) the night before... by the time I got to the hospital the following evening, I was too exhausted to care about cameras & cables. Slept like a baby!

    P.S. They gave me a nice private room, with a little television (had like 4 channels) and no visible cameras - so aside from the cables attached to me, it was kinda like staying in a cheap motel. No biggie.

    I also have done the sleep test. The only thing strange was that they attached all the cables to my head. LOL I looked like some weird alien. They also asked me to sleep on my back, which I hate. Before I got my CPAP I never slept well anyway, so I didn't sleep any worse there than I did at home. It is just like being in the hospital (there are always people checking in on you there).
