    AH answer: I listen to herself getting her breath back.

    Real answer: sometimes podcasts.

    ASMR whispering voices or tapping sounds.

    Sword and scale, podcast, but it knocks me out

    I have a hypo-tropic cardio myopathy, so I listen to my heart every night to make sure it is still beating!! It's both soothing and soul-destroyingly stressful.

    Put some Debussy on. You need to avoid the soul-destroying stress!

    I'd rather hear my heart stop than "Claire de Lune". Christ, I can't stand Debussy.

    Fair enough. Where do you stand on Motörhead?

    The lovely silence of living in the back of beyond.

    I hear it sounds a little like the middle of nowhere, but with less midrange?

    Podcasts or talk radio. Always.

    The amount of headphones I go through is ridiculous.

    FLAC or mp3?

    Nothing like a couple of gorilla biscuits with a glass of warm milk at bedtime.

    At least Motörhead songs are in a consistent key! To hell with Debussy and his Jazz!

    White noise from a generator app - helps me get what little sleep I get.

    When I was a teenager I used to always listen to music going to sleep, I'd find it hard to sleep otherwise. It'd have to be an album I knew very well though. Nowadays I usually either watch something I've seen a load of times, or more often read. I'm a really deep sleeper too, so I'd often wake up in the middle of the night still with the book propped in front of my face

    Handy. Just pick up where you left off in the morning.

    Usually goes more like, pick the book back up the next evening read two pages and then go "I'm 90% sure I've fcuking read this already, bollocks how far did I get at all"

    Put a little dab of mascara on the tip of your nose. When you fall asleep, book drops and marks itself!

    For a while I couldn't sleep without listening to the Ricky Gervais show on xfm a few times a night. Just listening to Karl say the most insane things and Ricky nearly die laughing really put me at ease when I was going through a really tough time. I could forget about real world shyte and eventually fall asleep which I don't think I could've done with those shows..
