Eh, dead arm is better than dead leg. At least you can get up to pee.

having this feeling on the leg is so much worst than the arm, I literally dont want to move…

This shit reminds me of that cartoon commercial in the early 2000s. The animation style freaks me out.
The cartoon had a woman using a giant paintbrush.

In highschool I feel asleep on the bus to school and I'm a tall guy and the bus had no leg space so I had to ball up.
When I woke up one of my legs was completely dead. Like I couldn't feel it at all, couldn't but weight on it. Had to do the most awkward hobble off the bus of my life.
The bus driver looked at me like I was crazy because I was using the seats as crutches.

At night if id wake up and my arm is dead I usually just throw it where I plan to turn and just go back to sleep

What I do is, I sit on my hand for, like, 15, 20 minutes, until it goes numb. No feeling at all. And then I rub one out.

At one point someone was selling mattresses with grooves cut into them for your arms to prevent this problem

Whatcha gone do? Duct tape your flaccid hand around your peen and use your other arm to make it move? That's a lot of work just to schmeet your meat

I rolled my ankle real good one time by trying to walk with a dead leg. Best to wait for most of the feeling to come back.

I fell asleep with both arms above my head, I woke up and they were BOTH dead and flopping around, it was nuts

I answered my phone with a dead arm. I had to hold it up by the wrist with my.. living arm.
TheW83 t1_j2y4ik5 wrote
I woke up once in the middle of the night to go pee and freaked out when a rat jumped on my leg. I smacked it away in a frenzy only to realize it wasn't a rat but my other hand. My arm was absolutely dead numb and it took about 10 minutes to get it back to almost normal.
TravelSizedRudy t1_j2y52yy wrote
It's such an odd feeling. It's not like.... pain. But it is so unbearable.
is_that_optional t1_j2y6nne wrote
I get that sleeping on my stomach and stuffing my arms under the pillow. Super comfy unless you fall asleep that way. Massaging your armpit gets the blood flowing a bit faster but good luck doing that with wet noodle arms.

It sucks at first, but moving your limbs around a lot helps them "wake up" again after you've lost circulation.
DarkOrb20 t1_j2yjleu wrote
That's the worst.
xXxPLUMPTATERSxXx t1_j2ylbnf wrote
Often I fall asleep with my arm off the edge but locked straight because the elbow is pointed down. Instead of being dead it's fairly painful and I have to bend my arm slowly to get back to normal.
seanbrockest t1_j2ylc5o wrote
I still remember the first time I woke up with that, I was about 12 or 13 I think, and I freaked out so bad because I thought my arm had been paralyzed. It was such a weird feeling having a dead limb just hang, no sensation, it was like an extra piece of meat just hanging from my shoulder.
BabiesDrivingGoKarts t1_j2yn0ww wrote
LPT: If it's asleep, rub the appendage. Anecdotally it seems to work for me. Like for example, if its my arm, I just take my other arm and rub up and down the length of it as if to stimulate circulation.
When something goes to sleep, I have heard that it's not a blood thing, but a nerve thing. My pet theory therefore, is that while you probably are stimulating some blood flow to some capillaries that were squeeze shut with pressure, it's moreso works because you're stimulating nerves or some bullshit. Also doesn't hurt that just massaging a limp appendage is a little more calming than panicking.

It doesn't. It's clearly a frame by frame drawn animation.

sometimes I sit on my own penis until it falls asleep. that way it feels like I’m jerking off someone else ☺️👍

For some reason I only ever get dead arms when I eat gluten (it’s one of the symptoms that led me to discover I was celiac).
Since I cut out gluten a few years back haven’t woken up a single night with dead arms.

Then why do the mitten hands randomly turn into full hands with fingers for a single frame every now and again? That's not hand drawn.

I have some nerve damage in my leg that causes it to permanently feel like dead leg. It’s a nightmare, and even worse when I get it from a laying on it wrong situation.

One morning I woke up and could not feel my entire arm at all, used other hand to move the arm and it moved looking as it was broken. I nearly shat myself. Never slept again with arm under my head again lol

I vaguely remember it making me panic a bit because I stood up and tried to grab the bedroom door handle to open it and couldn't it was just basically disabled.

They sell pillows for people with acid reflux that have an arm tunnel under them. They are popular with people 5hat have bad shoulders too because the wedge pillow takes the weight off the shoulder

I had that once too. I felt like Ace Ventura after he gets tranquilised. It was both hilarious and also kind of scary.

I also woke up with a completely numb arm this morning, it hurt a lot when it came around.

Joel Haver's stuff is done with a program that cant handle quick movements at all, even something like hands waving it smears everything around.
This seems to be rotoscoped by a human, albeit really poorly.

DragonflyWing t1_j2zxir6 wrote
Oof, I did this too, except I jumped down from sitting on the back of my car because I didn't realize my leg was asleep. Sprained the shit out of my ankle and got road rash on my arms and knees because I went flying when my leg just refused to support me. That ankle hurt to walk on for a full year.

I did that once in high school. Hear my alarm and go to shut it off... nothing, so I try the other arm and still nothing. Had to sit there adjusting myself until the feeling came back (and the pain of the feeling came back subsided) to turn that damn thing off.

This happened to me in the beginning but it also didn't last long. Since I have rounded shoulders from years of pc gaming, I always try to sleep with my arms above my head to stretch my chest muscles. Never happened again. Maybe you have circulatory problems too.
