I know I am not working and can have the privilege of having those afternoon naps but I don't want to because I find it difficult to sleep at night. so, how do you fight these so as not to nap?

I try to keep myself busy during the day, whther I am in here ro doing something else. When I start to relax, that is when I fall to sleep. I am doing better though, as I haven't been sleeping during the day lately, and that is good, as I hate it when it happens.

@funkeyguhl I fall asleep a lot too, when K don't want to. I have been pretty much staying awake when I am in here though, so that is a good thing.

same here! Not that I don't welcome sleep but it's just that I don't like doing it in afternoons because it kind of shake my body clock or something. I try to keep myself busy too but since I am in front of the computer most of the time... I feel that the light makes me sleepy :p

There are many ways of doing this Basically you need to make sure you are getting adequate sleep at night. I recently wrote three discussions that are natural help in sleep. Sleep is very important and we all have times we can't sleep. When it becomes chronic it can become a health issue.

@funkeyguhl ...That should be good. Some people need more or can even do with less. I wrote a three part discussion about it.

I would think I do have adequate sleep because I get about 6-7 hours of sleep.

Relax yourself and pick up a boring book. Perhaps the boring book will make you feel sleepy.
