Default How can I sleep during the daytime? - 12-21-2008, 09:11 PM

I work early mornings at least once per week (from 6:00am-2:00pm), I am usually very tired during the afternoon and I want to take a nap, but I have trouble sleeping during daylight hours. Is there any way I can catch up on sleep better during the afternoon, without losing sleep through the night?

I'm always nodding off in the afternoon without any effort, usually in all the wrong times....while I'm in class or driving. It's how to sleep at night that perplexes me.Have you tried completely covering your windows?

I find that when you wake up annoyingly, it is usually that either- Your natural body clock needs to adjust, which is probably not your problem if you have worked with this job a while.-If you need the loo then that can prevent you from sleeping, so try and go to the loo as much as possible-Another thing I find keeps me awake is being hungry and not realising, try eating a healthy snack about 20 minutes before trying to nap

well try to close all blinds/curtains to make your room or living room or w/e dark. you can try to isten to music till you are super tired. or just lya down and let your mind wander then youll fall asleep. goodluck
