My whole life I’ve been told that if you fall asleep in the bath then you’ll drown, or something. But is this true? I’m a grown ass adult I think I’d just wake up if my head fell under water

Even assuming you start with room temperature water, it’d be several hours before you start feeling the effects of hypothermia. Given the water starts off warm, it’s only a bathtub of water so body heat will keep it above room temperature, and you’re (probably) in a small room that’ll help hold in the heat, I’d say you’d more than likely be okay assuming you don’t sleep more than 8-10 hours. If you pass out in the tub for something like 16-24 hours then I’d be more worried.
In some ways, I’d be more concerned about what would happen in the drain plug wasn’t completely watertight and the water drained away, particularly if you weren’t naked and were wearing clothing that holds in water like cotton.
