Are we all doing this now, because I’m exhausted by noon everyday. (TikTok screencap)

I genuinely don't understand how people can nap during a 20 minute break. I need two hours just to consider falling asleep. Unless I'm trying to stay alert, at which point I'll crash immediately, but only as long as I don't actively try to lie down and sleep.

I don't trust anybody who can shut down on command to not be an infiltrated cyborg.

I was a flight attendant in my early 20s. I had no set schedule and often worked really early or really late paired with multiple takeoffs and landings made sleeping on command a necessity. I can usually fall asleep within 10-15 minutes. Faster with airplane engine noise.

I've heard the same from a lot of ex-military folks.

You don’t have to be fully asleep for a nap to be restorative. Even if you just lay there with your thoughts (NOT YOUR PHONE!) for 15-30 minutes it can be very beneficial.

My personal experience is if you try to nap every afternoon consistently at the same time, your body gets used to the schedule which allows you to get to sleep faster.

So why doesn’t that work for sleeping at night

[-] moody@lemmings.world 1 points 1 month ago

It does. Going to bed at the same time every night and waking up at the same time every day helps you fall asleep faster and sleep better.

I did it all the time working nights. Just close your eyes and konk out. But set an alarm.
