Question:
My gf thinks I sleep too much on my days off. Yes, I am depressed, but I have been getting treatment.

What more can I do? One day at a time.

Answers:
I take one everyday with my 3 year old son. I do not work...I stay at home with him. My husband has said that I sleep too much as well but I suffer from depression also and have taken Paxil for years and it makes me sleepy. Naps are great!
I like naps. They're good if they don't get your sleep schedule too far off.

Try not to take a nap if your gf wants to do an activity together with you, though!
Naps can be a good thing, but do not nap longer than 45 minutes, or you may have trouble sleeping in the PM., but I feel naps can be quite refreshing. i believe in them.
I think naps are necessary during the day. Everyone should be able to take one. They say that even a 5 minute cat nap is healthy for you.
If I was you I would sleep so you dont have to think about things and rest your mind! If you are that tired You need your rest!
Naps are the best! I take one every Saturday and Sunday. If I didn't have to work, I would take one during the week.

"No day is so bad that it can't be fixed with a nap!"
I wouldn't unless you are sick or something. I think that taking naps makes it harder to sleep at night. Go outside or something while it is light outside!
I'm not depressed, but I could make a career out of sleeping. I love to sleep. Do you think that we could get paid?
having short naps throughout the day and sleeping less at night actually ensures you get more sleep.
i don't know much about clinical depression but when i'm feeling down i find exercise and being outside makes me feel better
so take naps if you need to get more sleep, but i think getting some fresh air would be good.
if i take a nap during the day when i'm not planning to say up late i usually can't sleep at night. but your treatment you say you're on, (medication, etc.), might be making you sleepy, and you need to take naps.
