Everyone who still sleeps with a fan on, know the effect!<\/p>\n
I always thought I couldn\u2019t sleep without the low hum of my old silver desk fan blowing cool air across my face. My friends teased me about it all the time. My coworker Maxton even joked that I\u2019d marry a fan before a person. But last week, I read an article online that rattled me. It said sleeping with a fan could dry out your throat, cause allergies, and worsen asthma. It made me wonder if that was why I always woke up with a scratchy voice.<\/p>\n
That night, I decided to sleep without the fan. I turned it off, slid under my covers, and lay there in complete silence. At first, I thought I\u2019d get used to it. But the quiet was unsettling. Every creak of the house felt amplified. My mind drifted to things I\u2019d pushed aside during the day: unpaid bills, my stalled freelance projects, the awkward dinner with my sister\u2019s fianc\u00e9 who kept checking his phone.<\/p>\n
I kept tossing and turning. By 2 AM, I gave up and flicked the fan back on. The whirring instantly soothed me, but I couldn\u2019t shake the unease from what I\u2019d read. Was I hurting myself just for the sake of comfort?<\/p>\n
The next morning, I told my neighbor, Callista, about the article over coffee. She laughed and said she\u2019d never heard such nonsense. But her teenage son, Ewan, who overheard us, chimed in that his friend\u2019s dad got bronchitis and blamed his nightly fan. It planted a seed of doubt that kept growing in my head.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
