Hello dear mylotters! I just woke up from an afternoon sleep! Well, you know I have to get to sleep because I wake up early today since I have class at 9 AM. Now that I travel and still have classes at night, I have to sleep between 12 PM to 3 PM in order to regain my energy. Do you guys take afternoon naps?

Nope I don't take naps in the afternoon even when I have less sleep. Because if I do I would surely have a bad headache as soon as I wake up. That would be require to take tablets which I really hate. However, there were times when I feel so sick I would lie in the bed in the afternoon and only realize I've fallen asleep when I woke up. So then the headache starts.

Hi yes we all are different. I have this friend who always sleeps. She really loves to sleep even if it's already 4 or 5pm when in fact she woke up around 12nn. So when she gets up around 7pm she will eat and then sleep again by 10pm.
But I am really different that's why even if I feel so sleepy in the afternoon I try to do things so I won't think of lying down in the bed and sleep.

I used to have afternoon sleep when I am free without any job. Today I went for a nice sleep for 2 hours. I feel that I don't have much sleep in night days when I have sleep during afternoon sessions.
Do you people feel the same ?

Most time i don't sleep in the afternoon. On the weekdays, i try to have a napping at the noon after having lunch, since napping has so many benefits to our health, no matter how long it is, i will try to lie on bed and enjoy it each noon.
There are a few times i sleep in the afternoon, most time it is on the weekends. I try to have a rest after lunch, but fail to weak up later, then have slept for 2-3 hours. You know, sleeping in the afternoon when it is rainy is really good.

Hai friend...
This is my hobby...If I have no classes, I will sleep for 3,4 hours after food.....
It became as a part of our life.....I will feel like sleepy in the working days(college)..I will sleep in that time in college....I like to do the works in night...I always do all my works like assignment at night..Because there will not have any one to disturb me...So I can concentrate on my studies....I will not feel of sleeping at night....And I will stay for a long time to complete my works...
But I can't to get up early morning....The sleep after noon helps me to concentrate on studies....I like to sleep at afternoon....It's really nice.... Enjoy sleeping and mylotting..... :-)

I like sleeping in the afternoon although sometimes it is very irritating when the weather is hot. I can relate with all the things you say since I am also a college student. In college there are a lot of things to do plus the pressure that our professors give.

I do at times but I try not to as I then find it hard to sleep at night but I must be honest I have a better sleep in the afternoon than I do at night...but for you it probably good for you as you have a lot on your plate at the moment.

Yes. Sometimes we find it hard to sleep at night since we have already slept in the afternoon. That only happens to me when I have nothing to do much really especially during breaks. I agree to you too. Afternoon sleep is better. As in much much better and I like it.

So you are a student also just like me. That 9 hour regular study is very stressful. Thus you really need to rest for somehow of an hour or two. Because after resting, our body is able to have back its energy. Don't forget also to have afternoon snacks. We feel hunger every after we sleep.

We are definitely the same. But I just experience it now taking afternoon naps since I am going home by 11 o'clock right after my class. The travel from school to our house is very tiring. Also the sun is so high and hot already. I also go to sleep late at night because I have to do assignments or study.

I think it is good in free hours to sleep after mid day meal because it makes us very tired n we feel sleepy.
