Can you sleep with lights on?

Although I would rather not, I can sleep with the lights on. I worked graveyard shift for many years and slept in the daytime. Not much difference between sleeping with the lights on or with the sunshine filling the room with light

hi i never sleep in the light.Always i sleep when light is off.

If I'm tired, i can sleep even if the lights are on. But if I'm not that tired and trying to force myself to sleep, i will get mad at those who on the light (usually my sister). But i agree that we can have a better sleep when the room is dark when we sleep. I read from a book that says when light are on when we sleep, our brain is not at the resting stage, it's in a stat which is half conscious, and i would make you tired when you wake up.

when I was younger, I always sleep lights on, but after few years I sleep with lights off, don't know the reason behind it, I can't sleep well even if there's just a small light.

yes, i can but don't like sleep under the light. while the lights on sleeping do harmful to your health.

HI rikkabren, I would sleep fine with a night light on but not too bright. Just dimmed enough. I can't sleep when there is no light at all during at night. Because I would not be able to sleep and will feel as if I am suffocating. But if sleeping during day then I may be too tired to care about the bright room, of course curtains are closed.
