Sleep

[dodger87]

The other day i was sick so i stayed home from school and had a nap at around 1 o' clock in the afternoon. And then i go to sleep again at around 10:30pm and i couldn't sleep at all! I had stayed awake all through the night right up until 6:00 in the morning when my mom's alarm rang. The whole time i was just laying around in my bed. And the day afterwards it wasn't so bad i slept from around 1 o' clock till 5 o' clock so about 4 hours. But that day i didn't nap at all, because i was scared i wouldn't be able to get any sleep at night. Third day my sleeping routine went back to normal.

That was the second time it had happened to me. And the first time i had taken a nap just before going into shower (6:45pm - 7:45pm). And its the exact same routine. 1st day no sleep at all, 2nd day barely any sleep but get around 4 hours, 3rd day routine goes back to normal.

I am guessing that its because of my naps, but it wasn't always like this, i use to be able to nap whenever i was sleepy but now even if i was missing sleep and i napped this kinda stuff happens to me. Can anyone explain how this happened? And any suggestions on how to deal with this?

i think i have a similar problem. i don't think my body works on a 24hour clock. i like to get 8 hours sleep when i can but when i do, i don't get tired for like another 18 hours or so. doesn't bother me too much tho, i've kinda got used to it

I used to suffer from insomnia when I was young. Don't worry, when you get older and you are REALLY exhausted, you won't have this problem anymore.

Man, I feel like the advice queen around here.:eek:
