Do you lot nap or wha'?

I do, all the time. I don't know what I'd do without a nap sometimes. I tend to get very cranky when I'm tired. Cranky Christy is not very nice.

I had a nap at lunchtime to get me through the rest of the day. I generally limit my napping to 30 minutes as I like feeling refreshed and I think if you overnap, you nearly feel worse than before you decided to nap.

Any nappers in the house?

Never could; I either fall asleep and sleep for the usualy 6-9 hours or else just wake up feeling much worse than before.

Rarely have them. I feel terrible after naps. Really groggy.

I used to be a great woman for a disco nap.

I still enjoy a snooze on the couch after a good weekend

I voted no, but could do with a snooze right about now to be honest...

Never. Always find a nap makes me even groggier.

Sleeping during the day is horrible anyway, used to do it working night shifts years ago.

Never. Napping is for old people and babies.

I used to take naps all the time a few years ago. I don't know why but I just stopped doing it. Probably because I used to nap for 1-2 hours and wake up more tired than before.

Nope, never!

Blasphemy!

If you're feeling groggy post nap, you are more than likely napping for too long. A nap should never be longer than 30 minutes. I always set an alarm.

I had a nice bit of fish with rice, and a Twix.

unless you are ill there is no excuse for such behavior

I wake up very confused after a nap.
I can then never get asleep that night.

Used to but if I nap now I won't sleep properly at night so never do it anymore!

brevity · 07-07-2015 05:13PM

I like penguins.

Magico Gonzalez · 07-07-2015 05:26PM

I'm a big napper at the weekends, during the week not as much as I'd like.

PizzamanIRL · 07-07-2015 05:30PM

Hate sleeping during the day. It takes me ages to wake up properly and if I think of something I did earlier that day, it feels weird, like it wasn't today or it wasn't yesterday.

The_Valeyard · 07-07-2015 05:35PM

I work better with naps. I find it incredibly difficult to get to sleep. So when possible it's nice to take a quick 20 minutes power nap. Rarely happens. But that's life.

Harry Palmr · 07-07-2015 05:37PM

I quite like 30 minutes of "eye rest", not sure if it really counts as a nap.

But how do you know when the nap will start?!?

Most men like 'eye rest' between their **** too.....

Yes I do like a nap every now and then. Only weekend naps though, couldn't during the week, it'd mess with my sleeping too much.

I do face the issue of alarms / nap lengths though, as you can never really know when you'll actually drift off.

Is it not sleepy dreamy nighty snoozey snooze though? Myself and my boyfriend have a blanket, a good nap blanket as it happens, that we have christened sleepy dreamy nighty snoozey snooze, or sleepy dreamy for short. So you see my concern at the title of this thread.

Four hours is a good night's sleep for me and if I took a nap I'd probably never sleep. So it's not worth the risk.

catallus · 07-07-2015 06:03PM

4 hours?! How the hell do you function!? I get really upset if I don't get my 9 hours.

Fear Ciarrai · 07-07-2015 06:06PM

I used to but dont bet anymore

cloud493 · 07-07-2015 06:14PM

I never ever nap. Makes me feel like ****e.

Public_Enema · 07-07-2015 06:20PM

For me, waking up from a nap is like waking up from a hangover.

Xaracatz · 07-07-2015 06:27PM

I reckon short naps are good. I'd go for ten minutes' sleep in the shower room in my last job if I couldn't keep my eyes open, and I did feel better afterwards.

Napping in the daytime during the weekend though makes me feel worse. Probably napping too long, but can't resist hitting that snooze button.

I think that, once you fall into a deeper sleep, your body gives you the two fingers for waking up again too early. Post nap grogginess is shit.

I function fine thankfully, but I'd loved to be able to sleep for 9 hours. I probably haven't slept for that long since I was a kid.:(
