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 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.

My guess is that the guy you replied to didn't bother to put a /s at the end because he was obviously being sarcastic enough without it.

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.

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.

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.
