Hi Dee351972! I do take naps in the afternoon when I slept late and then woke up early in the morning. Or when I have nothing else to do, sometimes I get so sleepy. However, in your case it seems you are exhausted or burn-out? Is that correct or I have misunderstood what you have said? Anyway, I hope you will feel better soon and take care of yourself always. Have a nice day.

Hi Dee351972! Oh, I know the feeling. I got depressed too and that was a month ago..I just wanted to sleep the whole time. I felt so sad and so hopeless but then I really have to shake myself out of that depression state. I have to fight it off because I really don't like the feeling. I just hope you will be feeling alright always. Oh, and you're moving out? Good luck and take care. More blessings to you.

I love to take naps and I know I sleep better during the day than at night. However feeling the need to take naps has been linked to a chemical imbalance with your seratonin and melatonin levels. If you are finding it hard to get a full nights sleep to feel rested enough during the day try taking one caplet of melatonin about half an hour before bed. However, if you dont feel comforatable taking meds to sleep, even if they are natural, another way is to spend more time out in the sun during the day. That will actually increase you bodies level of seratonins which your body will then convert inot melatonin later.

I take naps too and that is provided that I'm really tired in the day. It's also nice to take a cold nap when it is raining outside. As for your problem of unable to sleep at night, I suggest that you take a short nap in the afternoon, say an hour or 2. Also try to avoid taking late naps because it also affect your sleep at night.

I do take my naps all the time, especially right now because of our semester break. Also, whenever I think I'll be over eating, I'll just take a nap, so that I won't be eating, and when I have PMS, it hurts really bad, I have to take a nap for a while or so, for me not to feel the pain

I usually don't take naps during the day but sometimes I do but only when I'm really, really tired or if I'm sick. Now before my hubby got a job all he wanted to do was sleep during the day and then he wondered why he was up half the night. Now that he is working he does take short naps on his days off but not as often and only if he is sick. I like to stay up late but can't do it as much as I used to because of the medication they have me on for Bi-Polar. It knocks me out and I sleep all night but without them I am up half the night and then sleep for a few hours during the day. Sometimes I feel better when I take about an hour nap and sometimes I feel worse so I don't do it often. :)

I can never take naps, it's really hard for me to sleep when it's bright outside, because the sun shines in my room and it gets really bright.

I love taking naps. When I was having my internship before, me and my partner had free time so we would sleep often. In college, when the professor wasn't around yet, I would rather take a nap than talk with my classmates. It makes me feel relaxed.
