Current Events > Any of you here take Naps frequently?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Yeah like at least a few times a week for like a couple hours. Probably not common for a healthy youthful person?

REST is FOR THE WEARy!!!

Naps are pretty damn great. Sometimes it just hits the spot.

Naw I get good sleep every night thankfully

My schedules so fucked idk what counts as a nap and what's sleep

tried to take one this afternoon (only gotten 4 hours of sleep at best last night). body doesn't want to rest.

though i do nap sometimes they don't last more than 2-3 hours maximum.

I wish I had the luxury of naps

I envy you greatly. I suffer from chronic insomnia. Ive been awake since Monday morning.

I don't.

Had a stretch where every time I took a nap, I'd wake up to bad news so I gave up.

Naps are a scam.

How so?

I try to. I often don't get home from work until after 1am and have to get up by 7 to get kids off to school.
So, a nap is needed most days. But I still have a 2 year old at home so it depends on if she takes one or not.

Almost everyday

Very rarely. My sleep schedule is pretty consistent.

When I worked from home, sometimes I would lay down for the second half of lunch. It was glorious.

Maybe the car sleepers at work have got the right idea.

Not anymore. A year ago I took naps all the time.

Ends up I have a severe case of sleep apnea. Ever since I got a CPAP machine, my need for naps has disappeared

think i got an hour and a half this time. that helped.

while using the machine (i have very mild form of sleep apnea).

Yeah I often to have to take a couple of hours after work a couple of times a week. The alternative is spending the entire evening in a zombie haze. At least after a couple of hours I can make use of the rest of the evening.

Naps are pretty much my only form of sleep now...

just rested earlier w/o acknowledging when I went to la la land

I sleep a lot.

I've read that science says that catch-up sleep is actually no good, and I had never been so sure of an imminent reversal of scientific opinion.

Yeah, most weekdays I eat dinner then nap until about 11. Then I have some snacks and play games and go back to sleep at around 1-2

Usually when I'm feeling sad

so true

have you ever sang Joy? just questioning

Too often honestly. Frequently tied in with insomnia, but I get kind of low energy and just conk out too often even after I seemingly sleep fine.

I'm a little worried about it, honestly. I feel like my energy levels are abnormally low in general and have been since at least my early 20s. It feels like something might be a bit off there. Or it's just depression.

What do you mean it's imminent reversal?

If I do, it's no more than about 30 minutes. After that I'm awoken by the guilt of wasting the limited free time that I have.

We shouldn't be taking naps for more than 10-30 minutes..1 hour naps will ruin your sleep cycle at night

around 40 minutes for me on the times i need a pick me up to get through the rest of the day till i can sleep at normal time (around 10-11:30pm).

i did nap some in the afternoon yesterday because 4 hours of sleep was all i got the night before.

have new problems to deal with (keeping my cpap mask from coming off the face, waking up in the middle of the night due to a throat being dehydrated).

Sometimes. At work I would take a nap at my car during work, but I stopped since getting a new job. There's day when I'm exhausted after work and immediately go to sleep for a little bit.
