over the summer, i have been grounded a lot. so for about a week now i have been very bored, (that explains my re-appearance here) and i have a pattern of playing video games, getting on the computer, reading a book, and or watching t.v. and then having a nap afterwards when i am bored. now, i can't sleep for more than two hours at a time; i sleep for a few hours, wake up, stay awake until i am bored again, sleep, and wake up again. i never have a bed time now, is this healthy? and normal? 😕

i always thought that it was healthy to take short naps rather than sleeping all at once at night, that is what napoleon and leonardo da vinci did

Originally posted by Dr Strangeloveno, he lol made it clear that it was not in addition to sleeping, it was in substitution of it.
When your teacher said it was good to take naps, I think she probably meant in addition to your normal night time sleeping and not instead of.

Originally posted by EcstremeVenomIf he said you should only take naps, he was wrong, or at least going against everything I have ever heard about sleep research (among other things I had a seminar on chronobiology and chronomedicine at university). It's important to get several hours of uninterrupted sleep because otherwise you don't get through all sleep phases. There are big individual variations in how much sleep (total and uninterrupted) you need, though.
no, [b]he lol made it clear that it was not in addition to sleeping, it was in substitution of it.[/b]
