Jerlene Posted November 10, 2018 Posted November 10, 2018 I have never liked taking naps. I feel like if I nap then I'm just wasting my day away. I don't care how tired I feel, I will force myself to stay up. This helps me with my insomnia. If I force myself to stay up I can usually get to bed at a decent hour.
o-o Posted November 11, 2018 Posted November 11, 2018 I don't like to take naps. As I work on shifts, if I take naps it's quite dangerous to not sleep well at night. It really depends on the day.
Jerlene Posted November 12, 2018 Author Posted November 12, 2018 Same here. I guess it depends on what I've done so far during the day, or what I did the night before.
killamch89 Posted December 29, 2018 Posted December 29, 2018 I take naps some days especially when I have been working non-stop since the day began.

Yeah I work rotating shifts for many years now and it seems like I just get naps … Gets frustrating not to get a full 6 to 8 hours.

Sometimes, there may be an underlying issue that is disrupting your sleeping pattern which causes you not to sleep peacefully for the regular 6 to 8 hours. Have you seen a doctor (one that you can trust and not some random one that'll say anything to put you on meds)?

Alexander. Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) I have never liked taking naps, formally when I was a child. Generally speaking nowadays, I think I'm starting to appreciate sleep more than I used to when I was at school. Working long hours is enough for me - after my shift I would be lucky to get 6 hours rest. Edited April 9, 2019 by xXInfectedXx
Moony Burbage Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I wish I could take more naps. I love them and take every opportunity to take one when I'm tired (which is, pretty much, always). But I agree, the fact that I'm loosing time while napping is annoying.

Napping is a light recharger and doesn't cost you much time unless you are going over 30 minutes. This is where you need to set an alarm to prevent yourself from over-indulging in your nap.
