There are better pillows out there, friend

[-] Lt_Worf@lemmy.ca 36 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm all ears for recommendations. I've wasted money on pillows that were great for one night and then started causing problems. =(

[-] GuyFi@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 1 year ago

Personally I love the memory foam, harder pillow from IKEA I got for £15. It's so comfortable that other pillows feel like shit compared to it. It's not for everyone though

[-] Ryan213@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Lol that's what I use! They're great!

I went and tried the Purple Harmony pillow when there was a similar thread on Reddit ~1 year ago. It was fantastic! I wanted it sooo bad, but it was just too expensive. I did find out later that Purple runs sales a few times a year. Think the best was around Christmas and it was damn near 50% off. So, I've had it since Christmas and been very happy.

I have a tempur "soft" pillow and it's too high.

I used to have a beaten up old fuck feather pillow and you could mould it into any shape you needed, it was great! I miss my shitty old pillow, my futuristic pillow isn't the answer.

When daddy feather loves mommy feather very much...

[-] misterundercoat@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

When two feathers like to get down, know what I'm sayin?

[-] drekly@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It's the feather of a very rare inverse auto correct bird

I feel this. I just moved and a certain family member 'helped' me move by throwing away stuff that I'd already dropped off at my new place that didn't meet their arbitrary standards including, yes, almost all the bedding. So now I'm sleeping through the hottest part of the year with the most unforgivingly thick pillows and the winter duvet.

And wake up in the morning with a headache and can't move your neck.

The thinner the pillow, the better. Fuck hotels

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

So... Do you just use the pillow case? 🤔 That would be quite thin.

[-] Stumblinbear@pawb.social 5 points 1 year ago

I have the purple pillow. It's great! Both sides are "the cold side" and, if needed, you could kill a man with it!

[-] WhiteRaven22@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago

My wife has one of these. I don't like the weird texture it has and often refer to it as her "space waffle" pillow, which gets a laugh out of her.

I bring a couple of pillows from home whenever I can. Doesn't work for flights, of course, but on shorter trips it's a godsend.

Life pro tip for side sleepers who need a super thick / fluffy pillow:

Buy a king sized pillow and put it in a normal sized pillow case that has one of those little flaps at the open end. The extra stuffing compressed to a normal sized pillow makes for the best thick pillow.

[-] ClamDrinker@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Get one of those pillows where you can remove or add stuffing - Be your own Walter White.

[-] Lt_Worf@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

I can't handle that kind of pressure

[-] x4740N@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

You should learn how to fluff your pillow

Your body posture also plays a part and if you have horrible posture that can contribute to pain

[-] Lt_Worf@lemmy.ca 31 points 1 year ago

I have the posture of an ice age caveman huddled for warmth.

[-] DEngineer@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I use one old flat pillow on the bottom and one new pillow on the top. Perfect 1.5 pillow height every night.

[-] CylonBunny@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Where my no pillow gang at? You have an arm! Use it

[-] TheObserver@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 year ago

Wait are you being for real? That can't be good for your neck. I've fallen asleep like that 1 time when i got way too high on the zaza and i had the worst neck pain ever.

[-] Floey@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Haven't used a pillow in five years. Your spine is meant to be straight at night, so no pillow is the way to go. It is also helpful if you have breathing issues.

[-] gun@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I take it you sleep on your back or stomach then? I think for people like me who sleep on their side, my neck hurts just from the idea of not using a pillow.

[-] TheObserver@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

That's wild man. I sleep on my belly with one leg hiked up to my chest and a pillow that's big enough for my head and for me to hug and wrap around. Sure it's also bad for you but man do i get some insane sleep and dreams from it

Seems more like a meme than a shit post

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 1 year ago

Two is just right for sleeping on the side if the bottom pillow is super firm and the top pillow is super not firm.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 year ago

And here I am with a half stuffed pillow because a full pillow makes me choke on my sleep

[-] PatFussy@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

You need to find the right pillow. This is important for good quality sleep. For instance I know that i need a thin pillow if I am on a soft bed but a thicker pillow if I am on a firm bed.

[-] MadBob@feddit.nl 5 points 1 year ago

I have whiplash and two pillows is just right. I'm blessed.

[-] Nacktmull@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Neck support pillows entered the chat ...

[-] nueonetwo@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

I use a Costco memory foam on top of a really thin shitty feather pillow I've had forever. The memory foam is like a cm or two too short for my neck to be comfortable so the feather pillow is used to lift it up that extra bit.

[-] EcstaticChance2050@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

But one folded over is just right.

[-] minorsecond@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

I got a buckwheat pillow and I'm never going back. It's perfect.

[-] droans@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I had a buckwheat pillow but the zipper broke six months in.

It's not fun cleaning up all the little shells at three in the morning.
