Sleep, Accident and Health: Panic!

Panic!

By Bleach dat Blood - 20/07/2015 03:02

Today, I woke to find a pool of my own blood all over my pillow. Frantic to find the source of the blood, I rushed into the bathroom and tripped over my too-long pajama pants. Crashing to the floor face first, I broke my nose. Turns out I had just bitten my lip in the middle of the night. FML

Today, there was something itching me in my bed, it was the tag to my pillow case. I ripped it off, very hard and slipped and punched myself right in the face. I broke my nose. FML

Night fight

By FistFighter - 09/04/2011 04:01 - United States

Today, after getting up to press snooze on my alarm clock, I climbed back into bed. When I went to reach for the covers quickly because I was cold, I missed, yet still managed to pull back my fist with force punching myself in the face. I now have a bloody fat lip. FML

Today, I woke up with my face covered in blood. Turns out that yesterday at my colleague's birthday party, I got so drunk that I started yelling "Nappy time!" before falling out of my hammock and face-first onto the concrete ground. FML

Today, while I was sleeping, I managed to knock down the curtains by my bed. That would explain the gash on my head and blood on my bed. FML

Today, I couldn't sleep. I had to pee really badly but I'm terrified of the dark, so I closed my eyes all the way to the bathroom. On the way, I tripped over my dog and fell face-first into the door frame. He then humped me as my nose bled all over the floor. FML

Today, I wound up in hospital because my boyfriend covered my face in fake gore while I was sleeping, to see if I was really as scared of blood as I claimed. Sure enough, when I saw my reflection in the bathroom mirror, I fainted, smashing my head against the counter on the way down. FML

Today, I tried to go down the stairs two steps at a time. I slipped, fell flat on my ass, and busted my lower lip against my overbite. When I tried to get up, I realized I had also peed my pants. FML

Romance isn't dead

By broken - 13/09/2009 04:26 - United States

Today, I was fooling around with my boyfriend in his room. He grabbed me behind the head to pull me in for a hard, romantic kiss. He accidentally smashed my nose into his cheekbone, and my nose started gushing blood and continued to bleed for over 2 hours. It's broken, and he just laughed. FML

Today, I stayed home, sick in bed. I had been sleeping on my arms. I got up quickly to grab the phone. My numb left arm rocketed and punched me in the (now cut) lip, which threw me off balance, making me smash my (now bloody) nose off of the headboard. It was a telemarketer. FML

Less haste, more speed

By D J's MOM - 18/09/2023 20:00

Today, at 11 p.m., after getting up for work at 4:45 a.m., I ran up the stairs to go feed my cat. I slipped on something, missed the handrail, then fell down and cracked my head on the tile floor. My hairclip was dead center, so I then had a fun night in the ER while my dang head wouldn't stop bleeding. FML

It's happened to me too, op. I bit the inside of my cheek after I got my braces a while ago and I was sleeping. I was drooling blood on my sleep apparently haha... It was scary

Why would you freak out so much and not consider that you may have had a nose bleed? How big was the pool of blood (which I assume is a slight exaggeration)?

Or, if you bit your lip hard enough for it to bleed, wouldn't you feel the pain in your lip and realize it must be related to the blood?

That, too. There are a lot of holes in this story.

some people actually bite through their tongue in their sleep so id still consider you somewhat lucky

Really? I'd much rather bite my tongue than break my nose. The mouth is the fastest healing part of the body so it would heal a lot faster than a broken nose, it would hurt less, and you wouldn't have any visible marks or scars from the injury, either during or after healing.

I'm wondering about a few things... First, how in the world did you bite your lip hard enough to make it bleed and not feel it at all? Or, how did you not manage to put two and two together if you saw blood near your face and your lip really hurt? And second, how in the world did you manage to fall on your face hard enough to break your nose? Do you have no reflexes whatsoever? Because the only possible way I can see for that to happen is that you did absolutely nothing to even attempt to break your fall, and literally just allowed yourself to go straight down face first and drive your nose directly into the floor. Why didn't you try to catch yourself as you fell, or at least turn your head and/or body to the side so it wouldn't hurt as much or hit anything delicate when you hit the floor? What did you think would happen to your nose if you drove it straight into a solid surface? Have to say YDI on this one. Sucks that you bit your lip, but the rest of it was definitely your own fault.
