My father also used to tell me that there was a flying monster making people blind if they didn't sleep. When I went to bed I keept my eyes shut until I sleept (if I had to open them I did it under my quilt).

i used to believe that when you had a dream and if there was something you liked in the dream and could manage to hold on to it until you woke up you it would actually appear ( i never was able to hold on to anyhing long enough until i woke up)

I used to believe that I never went to sleep at night. This was because I could never remember the actual moment that I fell asleep, so I just presumed I never did.

I used to believe that it was very likely that I would die in my sleep while I was still a kid. I thought that just the act of sleeping was enough to cause a person death.

once, when declaring to my parents that i was going to stay up all night long, i was informed that morning would never come unless everyone on earth went to sleep. only then would the sun come up again. i fell asleep waiting to see if it was true.

When i was a very small child, for some reason i had no idea that people closed their eyes when they fell asleep, though i knew that you coulnd't see. (I was a strange kid.) If i went to sleep in the living room, i would press my face against the back of the couch so that i couldn't see in order to get to sleep.

i used to believe you died every night when you went to sleep, and were resurrected each morning. you would think this would have scared me more.

i used to think that if i didn't sleep facing the open window the guys that broke in to kill me would stab me in the back, and i wouldn't be able to check them out. If i DID face the window i'd still get killed, but wouldn't really be worried about it coz i could watch them do it.

I was told that if you sleep on your back you swallow your tongue...I have been sleeping on my side ever since

My sister, she couldn't sleep unless the bedroom door was left open .... *I* dreaded sleep, huddled under the blanket, staring at the black darkness of the stairwell beyond the door, fearful of what might slowly emerge ... (in my mind?)

I used to believe that if I fell asleep lying on my front that my boobs wouldn't grow. And they didn't.
