Nap? Or no nap?

[katlupe]

I have never been able to take a nap. I do go to bed early and never have trouble sleeping so don't know if that is why. Even when I lay down to put my feet up during the day I cannot sleep. I read instead.

I'll nap when after a rotten night's sleep, but otherwise I generally don't.

Come about 4pm most days, I wrap up whatever tasks I'd intended for the day and shift into a relaxed gear. Read, watch a movie, surf the net, talk, text or zoom with friends/family. That kind of thing.

Unless I'm really sick, I only nap on the couch, never in bed.

They say napping is not good for us, but I have no choice. If I don't take a nap, I'm not only a useless zombie but, when bedtime finally does arrive, I won't be able to sleep.

"They" say a lot of things Then "They" change their minds. I say, do what makes YOU feel good, within reason - of coarse.

Today, not feeling great at all - laid down in the back office on a cot for about 20 minutes. Didn't sleep, but it helped to rest.

Why do they make little kids take naps they hate, and tell adults not to nap? In some countries, don't they all go home and nap ?

I hope you’re feeling better now.

Naps work for me if I'm home and not out driving !

If I'm really sick, like when I had the flu last month, I can go to bed and sleep around the clock, only getting up when I must. Otherwise, no naps ever. If I do those, I wake up very depressed.
