essines Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 i got home from work about an hour ago and wound up setting my alarm for half an hour and dozing off. when my alarm went off and woke me up i could have sworn it was my boss calling me to tell me i was 3 hours late (the sun was up and bright and i am supposed to work at 5am tomorrow). i then noticed there was music coming from my computer and i was alone on the futon in my living room. so i immediately thought i did something real bad like got drunk or hit my girlfriend or probably both. then i looked at the time at it was 4pm and i lolled softly to myself and cracked a beer. seriously though, i don't want to nap after work because this kind of shit gives me immense stress issues. come to think of it, everytime i wake up i figure i have to get up/am late for work. my life sucks.

Don't even get me started on napping stress, you know what my sleep pattern is like, well everytime I wake up I think I'm late for a meeting, or I've set my alarm to go into my daycare centre (which I no longer attend but can't get used to) and panic thinking I've got to rush to get out of bed. The anti-depressants making me paranoid don't help, and yeah again as you know I can never sleep so every rest I have is like a short "nap", so four/five times a day I am waking up like this. Fuck that, stress stations or what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essines Posted June 18, 2009 Author Share Posted June 18, 2009 exactly! i never used to nap cause i rarely slept at all, but now with my work schedule i find my self helplessly tired at about 3pm and then awake till1, asleep again till 5, then at work at 6. every time i am paranoid that my phone is going to fuck me over and not wake me up. fuck naps.

Squee Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Waking up can be a bitch. 3 years ago when I was a working man I woke up one winter morning, grabbed my watch which was lying next to me and realised I had overslept. I was supposed to be at work at 9 AM and my watch said 9 AM. So I jumped out of bed, got dressed really fast, grabbed my bag and ran out of the house at full speed and continued down the road. As I was running I felt like something was really wrong, so I stopped up and had a look around. There were no cars on the road and there were no pedestrians either. I had a look at my watch again and it turned out the time was 3 in the morning. When I woke up and had a look at my watch I had it turned upside down so instead of 3 AM it said 9 AM. I laughed my ass off and went back to my house and got back to bed. Needless to say I'm really, really tired and confused when I wake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zaphod Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 naps are scary period. i actually woke up from one a couple hours ago. didn't know where i was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 sleeping can be contradictory power naps are good right? well i read the other day that we sleep in 90 min cycles. so when you wake up before the 90 minute cycle is up you feel groggy. so if you wake up at 6:45am and your alarm is set for 7, don't go back to sleep. maybe its a REM thing. power naps are too short to get at the 90min cycle phase haven't taken a day nap for years.

EdamAnchorman Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 when i traveled to india i couldnt sleep on the 18 hour flight because the fuckin attendants woke me up every 20 mins and the plane sucked ass, but i arrived in mumbai at about 3 am local time. took a van to my final destination, about a 3 hour ride on which i was in and out of sleep constantly. arrived at 6-7 am, got settled and went to sleep at about 3 pm after being awake for who knows how long. alarm went off at about 7pm for dinner. woke up in my new room, totally fuckin disoriented. it seriously took me 30 seconds to realize where i was. scary feeling. try counting to 30 and imagine what its like for those 30 seconds to have no idea where you are, how you got there, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zaphod Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Btw I use my phone as my alarm, anybody else do that yeah my phone is my alarm. problem is, my phone is a piece of shit. so sometimes i'll set it and my phone will die and i won't wake up. although lately what i've been doing is waking up about four minutes before the alarm is set. it really pisses me off for some reason. like i've been cheated.
