@vervain in my case it's not pain, just discomfort. I suspect I need a much softer mattress than most people, because every one I've tried has been too firm. Recently I'd been trying with a mattress topper which was kind of okay but not great (ie, I could sleep but not fantastically). I bought a $40 foam one at kmart on a whim and tried adding that as well; it felt lovely and plush, but then I felt even worse the next day. I don't know what that means. So last night I tried no topper at all, and it was a disaster. I don't know what that means either. I've tried just plain on the floor as well, since I've managed that once or twice at game jams. It didn't work, without the sleep deprivation of a game jam...

    @Hyperlynx When you say discomfort, is it a sensory thing? Like your skin maybe needs the softness? When you had it all plush and it felt amazing but the next day was bad, in what way was it bad? Do your joints hurt? Your hips? Lower or upper back? Maybe you have multiple things going on and your solution needs to address all of them.
