I feel tired but don't kip as I have insomnia so my theory is if I take a nap in the afternoon it may effect my sleep at night

Yes, need sleeps, sometimes events disturb me and I need to shut it out, perhaps people take drugs at these times, but I have to lie down.
If I'm not moving around enough, I tend to go into standy mode, by then I'm ready to snooze....

I work a full day and find that I definitely drop off performance wise in the afternoon. I'm supposed to be taking assessments soon and have told my manager am only really fit to take them in the morning. Whether that has been taken on board is another matter.

The Ritalin MR 20mg I was taking was knocking me out after about 3 hours of taking it so more like midday. I'm now taking 3 at three hour intervals which delays the knocking out until around 6pm or so. Unfortunately, I'm not even getting the focus I was expecting from it so it's the worst of both worlds it seems to me.

When I was at school, especially as the learning got harder (ie less fed to us and more think it out for yourself) I used to come home have a cup of tea, a bite to eat and then fall asleep on the sofa until it was time for the evening meal. In those days it was the sound of the early evening Nationwide tv programme theme tune that used to wake me up.

i used to get home from school and have a dump as i would not use school toilets (is that OCD?) then catch the tail end of either young doctors or sons and daughters that seemed to go on forever then it was my time to get some attention back with he-man or scoobie doo that thelma used to get on my tit's as she would solve the mystery's that would go well over my head even though the amusment part owner was the only other person it could be ;D
