What's weird is that I can do stuff around the house all day on the weekend and be fine. If I go to a grandkid's soccer game and stand outside, or go shopping for an extended period of time (browsing, as my lady calls it) I'm taking a nap when I get home. It's about the only time I take one.

I nap if both my kids are down/accounted for, nothing is on I need to watch live, I have nothing else standing in my way. Its usually 20-30 min.

It's rare I take a real nap, but probably once a week or more, I'll have a 20-30 minute stretch where I'll lay down and close my eyes without actually falling all the way asleep.

This

if i have anything i could/should be doing, the slight bit of anxiety from that pending task makes napping virtually impossible.

as such, i rarely nap.

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea about 12 years ago. Before using a cpap (which I use every night), I was always trying to grab a chance to take a nap. Since then, I have probably taken about two naps.

I have sleep apnea but I do occasionally nap. Nowhere near as much though.

On a side note, when one of my grandkid's was younger he thought my job/career was taking naps.

Never been able to nap.

couple times a week

Only when I have a hangover , so about a hundred and twenty or forty or so

Working night shift, my sleep schedule is fucked and probably taking years off my life. I only sleep 3-5 hours at any given time, whether the day before working that night, or the day after, or on nights where I don't work at all. 

If I'm at home instead of work, I'll usually sleep a few hours at night and be wide awake by 0430. I'll end up laying back down for another few hours later that afternoon. 

Took one Friday for first time in years

Just about every day.  Working 8 to 10 hours every night 5/6/7 days a week combined with classes at inconvenient times Mon thru Thurs has done wonders for my sleep schedule. Some days I sleep in shifts and others don't get to bed until mid afternoon. 

It doesn't matter if my nap is 30 minutes, or 3 hours. I ALWAYS wake up sluggish from a nap.  

A handful of 20 minute naps a year. Usually on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Never planned, always spontaneous. 

Maybe about three times a week a pseudo 20 minute nap/ mediation shutdown mid-day
