i really cannot do without having an afternoon.it can just be for some 30mins only,but i really need it.and if somehow i am not able to sleep,might because someone has stepped in or i have to go somewhere,then i really have headache in the evening.how about you?does any one of you do have this problem ?is it normal?

hi nkhanna.since i am working in a full time job from morning to evening so its not possible for me to have a afternoon nap.i guess you would be staying in the home that's why you have ogt this habit.even my partner has this habit.she stays at home and its must for her to have an afternoon nap.i guess its with all the housewifes.

I can never take naps. Once I am awake that is it. I sometimes wish I could make myself take a nap, especially like now when I am sick and my body needs rest. I used to take small naps with my babies when they were just born but considering the lack of night sleep it was all out of whack then.

Maybe your body is sort of used to too much sleep and maybe you are having withdrawall symtoms, an occasional afternoon nap is ok but my doctor told me sleeping is all connected with the mind and it should be regulated.

I also need an afternoon nap, like you i experienced headache at night whenever i skip an afternoon nap. My mother said it is because of my astigmatism, so i badly needed a rest for my eyes.
