Do you often take naps?

Bless your heart. You need a whole day just to catch up on your sleep, don’t you. I used to not be able to take naps even if I didn’t sleep the night before. Nowadays, I can get a good nap, and it isn’t enough. You’re a hard worker, and I hope people see that.

I take breakfast naps before late morning to feel refreshed and go to work,

I seldom will take a nap. If I do, probably it means I am going to feel ill.

That's great that you are caring for you.

Most days I feel sleepy after Lunch but now I am refraining from sleeping because if I sleep in the afternoon I am unable to sleep at night .

I understand your situation and it makes sens to have power naps with your schedule. From my childhood, I have not been fond of naps and prefer sound and deep sleep at night. I do take naps when i am sick or tired and it is comparatively less. For me , naps could be anywhere between 15 minutes to 2 hours. Worse part for me is that my night sleep gets delayed even if i take power nap of jut 10 or 15 minutes. Perhaps thats what my body and mind is programmed for. I am aware of people who take power naps and that gets them refreshed and better going through the days.

I'm sorry to hear about your routine. Looks like you are too exhausted to work if you don't take any nap. Sleep is an important factor in our life to keep us fresh for the next day's work. I do, however, take naps intermittently. But not quite regularly. Though, whenever I do, I do feel fresh after waking up. But you know what the problem of power naps for me is? Well, because my body has got some rest in the afternoon, it's a bit difficult to fall asleep at night. That's why, I mostly avoid sleeping or even taking naps during the day time.

I really wish I could take a nap in the middle of the day, but time will not allow it. I am exhausted in the evening though and will typically fall asleep on the couch for a while until it's bedtime .

I do when I need to. But it's not a daily habit. I had to wake George I think to get him to take his night pill on time.

the answer is super YES! maybe because I have a problem sleeping at night and when I sleep I tend to wake up every single hours.

It is good to take a nap every day. It refreshes you.

I nap when I sleep less at night

That's a very long working day for you. I'm not surprised you need a power nap during the day. I'd need two or three if I worked those hours.

I take a 15-30 min afternoon nap every day.

I do Every single day - for about half an hour after lunch

Yes! I personally have Elhers Danlos Syndrome so I take naps frequently! It’s recommended due to lack of sleep on a nightly basis, if I don’t nap it can cause serious memory issues/brain fog/irritability. My naps last for three hours at time! Then I sleep anywhere from four hours to thirteen. My record is eighteen hours!

There are times in the afternoons i like to stretch out and read and sometimes I get a sleepy and not off for a while,

I nap every afternoon

No, never.

Yes , i can relate. But i can nap in that time around five in the morning , i will sleep again then maybe i can wake up around seven in the morning!
