I like the door idea someone suggested or you could find a cheap version of this: Just for the hilarity of it all :-)
The canopy is cute but you need to take it down and save it for when the child is much older for a play spot (maybe reading nook) not a sleeping decor.
If you like the look of a canopy may a wall canopy.
Your friend needs one of these:

EDIT: I’m not sure there really is a “normal”, but I’m sure your friend wouldn’t be the only person to talk about night fears with their therapist. That’s what they’re there for, may as well get their money’s worth out of their sessions.
I have this on my desk at work. It is a bit hard to manipulate to which light to cover. Also need a relatively stable small arm for it to attach too.

This is one product a lot of people at my work use.

I asked my neurologist for a note for accommodations. My work blacked out the lights above me with covers. We cannot remove a bulb or turn out lights but this is an option. I also wear rose tinted glasses.
Florescent lights is the worst. It is right up there with the sun and perfumes. I hope you are able to get some thing figured out to help with your job.

I kind of want to make a huge one and hang it as a bed canopy like this.
Blackout Fabric Canopy!
It made such a difference during the daylight hours. It’s a breathable fabric that blocks out the extra light in the tent, allowing me to sleep much easier (without an eye mask).
Truly worth it when you need all the energy/sleep you can get at a fest like EDC!
Residual benefit- helped dampen the echo sound within the tents as well.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you can fit a queen sized air mattress back there.

Tarp camper/backpacker here. Borah makes a decent tarp for $54.
Their lead times are around 4 weeks right now though.
As far as netting, I've had my friendly swede mosquito net for a few years and really like it. Paired with a DIY Tyvek groundsheet it gives me plenty of protection.
Nothing too special, just something like this.
this one
i don't have screen on my door
You mean like this?
So this is my nursery for my babygirl. I didn’t want to go with the typical pink scheme. I had something different in mind. It came out better than I had imagined. Fell in love with it once I finally put it together. Hope it can give some ideas as well. Here’s a link to the rest of the nursery.

Hope you guys can pick up ideas from my nursery!
If it occurs when you sleep I recommend a bed net. They are cheap and keep the bugs out while you sleep. No chemicals or anything like that.

You could try a light-blocking canopy like this one. Maybe hang it up with those Command Strips that are supposed to come off without damage so you don't make any modifications to the room.
Regardless, you need to talk to your roommate so at least you guys are aware of the problem and can reach a solution.
I have similar issue but I normally just pull up my thicker covers over my head when I know my roommate needs the light.
Good Luck!
nearly impossible. Just get a big mosquito net that hangs from the ceiling. It looks elegant and keeps those fuckers off of you. Also, they're easy to kill from inside the net because they just press up against it all night trying to suck your blood. Fold the net back over them and smoosh away.

To be honest, it seems like you're doing just about everything you can. In the meantime you might want to look into something like https://smile.amazon.com/MEKKAPRO-Mosquito-Repellent-Openings-Curtains/dp/B01KKMZRFK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1540814355&sr=8-2&keywords=extended+double+bug+net to at least give yourself a good nights sleep.

To be honest, it's really shitty that this is such a problem considering how much cornell charges for housing, I hope you get it sorted out soon OP!
For the curtain idea, you could use regular curtains and hook them with the above mentioned ceiling hooks, or, do canopy curtains (which is more like it) like this (except these are black) :

Just get a mosquito net. I use this one with a tarp and ground cloth. No bugs and much lighter than a tent.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B016BX3P6A/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1486444789&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=mosquito+net&dpPl=1&dpID=51ozwfSV0cL&ref=plSrch
I tried what seemed to be clone of the S2S from The Friendly Swede I used it with my MYOG modular tent that is very similar in dimensions to the hexamid solo. Unfortunately it just didn't work, the geometry of the net was too off center, designed for A frames. The S2S design seems to be a little more symmetrical, but I had mosquitoes on my groundsheet the minute I laid it down, I couldn't seem to keep them out even with the edges staked out and sides weighed down. At that point I didn't even care that it was drooping. Just a little too spartan for me, that experience made me go back to a full tent for summer months. However, I know a lot of people swear by using that net. If it was me, I would be willing to pay the extra cash for the full bathtub. Good luck!
I bought this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IVQ4ADC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I accidentally ordered 2 in my frenzy to pick gear up when i caught the bug, and they differed in weight by almost a full ounce. Right out of the package the lighter of the two weighed 7 ozs, but ditch the included stuffsack, cordelette and mitten hook and replace with microcord / just wrapping it up in the tarp to save almost 2 ounces.

edit2: edit1 redacted.
edit3: also consider this
I believe it's this one.

If it was me I’d just put up a good curtain in that case like a thick blanket or sleeping bag lol

The BEST 46.00 you'll ever spend to protect smaller vegging (potted) plants. These enclosures block essentially all (but thrips, etc.) crawly pests, allowing me to defer my preventative maintenance (in my case BT) until the plants are older!
Here's where I'm at now, thanks to these tents (now put away for the season)! As you can see, the leaves are essentially bite-free.

Definitely this. I was getting 10-12 bites every night from sleeping with windows open (no A/C), and now I get hardly any.
I found this one much cheaper on Amazon for ~$25 and comes in a variety of colors. It fits over my queen size bed just fine.
Here you go!
thank you! I bought the canopy on amazon here and then used push pins to hold it up! I thought about buying hooks and using that but it’s fairly light and it’s held up well :)
I dress up like a ghost
I bought this one and love it https://smile.amazon.com/MEKKAPRO-Mosquito-Repellent-Openings-Curtains/dp/B01KKMZRFK
I would get to a dollar store or some such place and see what decorative items you can find - candles, little knick-knacks, cheap artwork on canvas to hang on your walls. Most of the stores around me have surprisingly cute things!
For privacy in the bedroom, you might be able to rig up a privacy curtain or get a [mosquito net canopy] (http://www.amazon.com/OctoRose-Round-Canopy-Netting-Mosquito/dp/B00J2AHDO0/ref=sr_1_5?s=bedbath&ie=UTF8&qid=1450702710&sr=1-5&keywords=canopy) to block off the space around your bed a bit more. You could also look keep an eye out for privacy screens at thrift stores and yard sales, or, if you're into DIY, look into [making one] (http://inmyownstyle.com/2012/07/diy-how-to-make-a-decorative-folding-screen.html).
Are your beds just three in a row, or do you have them tucked into corners? If you can rearrange them so that you all have a small bit of the room, it might help.
For the living room, if you put a mirror opposite a window, it makes the space feel bigger and reflects light to make it brighter. Get some cheapy fake flowers and little side-table for punches of color!
Be sure to check Craigslist or Kijiji or your local equivalent for free items - you can find some really neat stuff from people who are moving and don't have room for something.
I'm pretty sure with canopy beds the posts are part of the bed frame.
You might look at these DIY canopy bed ideas, or try one that hangs from the ceiling?
If you just looking for posts to add to an existing frame, some version of fence post might work.
It'd probably help if you added more details on what you're trying to accomplish.
Buy this and stay up and work as long as you want.

It's okay. I had some little fucker in my ear too. I poured rubbing alcohol in my ear and bought one of these for sleeps. keep it tucked in always. All is well.
