What is it like to have free time to nap

 

Werent you just at a beach house

 

Wrong.

 

Don’t have kids

 

Vacation and when you have a 3 year old it's not relaxing lol

 

Why is this thread always somehow the most aggressive and personal on the site, lol.

 

I have insomnia so no naps for me

 

Anything longer than 20 minutes resets your circadian rhythm

 

The good thing about a 2-3 hour nap is that it feels like you are in a new day. Basically I get to live two days for every one the rest of you get.

 

Me trying to figure that out

 

I get literal anxiety if I nap too long because it makes me nervous that I will stay up all night and destroy my sleep schedule

 

What's a sleep schedule

 

I don't nap, feels like a waste of time to me

 

I sleep pretty reliably from about 11pm-6am daily

 

Every night 1:30 - 9:00 is my style

 

I am stridently anti-nap for myself and nap agnostic on how others choose to live their lives

 

This is my ideal based on my job

This is what my brain prefers

 

I’m confused, how exactly does one decide on how long they nap? My naps are never planned. My body tells me when it’s time to nap and when it’s time to wake up and that can be a very large window at times.

Also the concept of “I’m about to fall asleep, let me set an alarm for 15 minutes from now” doesn’t seem physically possible lol.

 

If I’m taking a nap it’s because I’m tired so I set an alarm for 30 minutes later and usually sleep for 20-25 minutes.

 

Are you a small child, or perhaps a puppy?

 

At my previous job, I’d keep a pillow and blanket in the back seat of my car so I could take a nap for my 30 min lunch break. And instead of setting an alarm on my phone, I’d put on Enema of the State (which is roughly 30 min long) so when it ended I’d know it was time to go back into work.

 

this is absurd. i love how faithfully you stick to your brand.
