Question 1

is it safe to sleep with earbuds on?

Accepted Answer

without music: If you are using earbuds to block noise the main problem is if you get tangled in the cord. In that case foam earplugs or a white noise machine might be better. But if you are wearing them to listen to music or audiobooks you need to be aware that the longer you are exposed to noise the greater the chances of hearing loss. Save your noise exposure for when you are awake.

Question 2

could i sleep with earbuds in?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You could, although I question why you want to. Are you trying to drown out sound that bothers you?

Question 3

it's really easy to fall asleep while listening to music .. but is it okay to actually sleep with earbuds in?

Accepted Answer

Not advised: I would not advise falling asleep with earbuds in while listening to music.  That could lead to foreign bodies into the ear canal or trauma as a result of such.  Try a speaker or headphones that cover the ear rather than go into the ear canal.

Question 4

is it bad to listen to netflix with earbuds on while i sleep?

Accepted Answer

Not ideal: It's obviously not ideal ... But, if you're doing it - just listen and don't look at the screen (ie, use ur phone laying down not the computer) - as this can mess up your sleep cycle.  Also, I'd suggest turning off autoplay. Last, be extremely careful that the earbuds don't cut in to your inner ear canal - as this can cause damage. Hope that helps!

You may get huge: I am sure you already know that the us is suffering an obesity epidemic because we have too much foods, often not the healthy type. If you over-eat/too much, you will get fat.
