Why do I wake up after a nap and feel a little empty inside?

1.In terms of time, the biological clock will change accordingly after developing the habit of napping; As far as light is concerned, the effects on sleep are through visual conduction, and the effects on ambient temperature, humidity, and body temperature. In terms of visual conduction, the intensity of light can affect the secretion of melatonin, which in turn affects the quality of sleep.

Some respondents mentioned that there may still be residual melatonin in the body when they wake up, which causes people to be in poor spirits, and it can be relieved by receiving high-intensity light at this time.

2.In terms of temperature, there is an optimal temperature (around 23°C in winter and 26° in summer), and higher or lower temperatures can affect the quality of sleep. It should be noted that the higher the temperature, the more impatient the mood will be, and the lower the temperature, the lower the mood.

Some respondents mentioned that the drop in body temperature after a person enters a deep sleep will also affect the mood after waking up.

The simple summary of Zhou Burun is that the emotional experience is gradually weakened due to the changes in the neurotransmitter composition of the brain during sleep. In this way, when you wake up in the morning because of the longer sleep time, your emotional experience is more weakened, and you appear calmer than after a nap. On the other hand, it is not as calm after a nap as when you wake up in the morning.

I don't really like naps because I get nervous when more than an hour of naps come together. When I was in elementary school, I took a nap on Sunday, and at that time it seemed like I slept from 12 noon to 6 p.m., and when I came together, I looked at the alarm clock at half past six, and I thought it was the next day, and the first thing I thought of was that I didn't eat or take a shower last night. Then I saw my mom come into my room, and the conversation was like this, and I started to complain about her

Why don't you wake me up, I'm going to be late for school. My mom looked at me puzzled: "What did you say?"

I ignored my mom. I started to run into the living room to pack my school bag, and when I saw my sister again, I said to her, "Why don't you wake me up, you want me to be late."

Then my sister said to me funny, "You went to school on Sunday."

I'm confused, Sunday? Sunday? Then I suspected that my sister was lying to me, and I ran to ask my mom again

Is it morning or afternoon? My mother said, "You're sleeping, it's almost dark now."

I took my mother's phone and looked at it to find out it was still Sunday. Later, when I came to junior high school and high school, boarding students, after taking a long nap in the afternoon, they would get up in a daze and complain about people, why did no one call me when they saw me sleeping, did anyone help me ask for leave? The roommates were very confused at first, and they got used to it after a lot of times, and once they slept for a long time, someone called me to get up, probably looking for me to borrow money, and then I didn't feel anything at that time, but I took the money to my classmates very calmly, and then went to sleep.

I came to repay the money in the evening, I didn't know that my classmate had borrowed money from me (that classmate was not very reputable, if I wouldn't have lent her money usually), she told me that it was only four hours after I borrowed me in the afternoon, I didn't ask her so much at the time, I went back to the dormitory and asked my friend, looked at my wallet, and found out that he did borrow my money, although I don't have any impression of lending her money until now. <>

There are far fewer studies on napping than sleeping at night. In the existing research, there is a lack of support or explanation for this phenomenon in the problem. It can even be said that napping plays a similar role in the selective repair of emotional memory as nighttime sleep, and has a certain repair effect on negative emotional experiences and important traumatic events.

In other words, instead of feeling depressed or anxious, a proper nap should be refreshed and energetic. However, this phenomenon does occur in the subject and some people around him, so we can only put forward some conjectures:

1. Payne et al. (2015) found that some people did not have the REM phase (memory reinforcement) in the process of napping, but also had the selective regulation of negative emotions. This is contrary to the conventional wisdom that the SWS period, which is generally considered to play a different role in the regulation of emotional memory, may play a different role in napping than nighttime sleep. Does this difference cause the physiological state of the brain (especially the limbic system) to be at a low level of activity during a certain NREM period of arousal, inducing the illusion of depressed mood?

2. In the daily rhythm of emotions, the level of fatigue rises linearly after noon, and this fatigue is related to peripheral system activities to a certain extent, especially in the case of overeating at lunch, which will exacerbate the experience of fatigue. If you take a nap for too long, there is a significant difference in the fatigue you experience before and after bedtime, and this fatigue can easily be identified as a low mood. We often have a feeling that we are getting more and more energetic and emotionally high in the morning, and as a result, we have exhausted our energy and depressed after eating and sleeping, and it is obviously not scientific to attribute this change to the effect of a nap.

What's more, when someone takes a nap, the sun goes down, and the light has a significant impact on the depressed and depressed mood, which obviously cannot be considered as the effect of a nap. <>

Sometimes it's empty, sometimes it's lonely, sometimes it's cold.

In the afternoon, it is advisable to take a nap, close your eyes and refresh your mind, and sleep for about half an hour to replenish your energy. The work in the afternoon should be arranged to be fulfilling, so that you have something to do, otherwise you will wake up with nothing to do, and you will feel empty and panicked. The nap time is usually short, and the brain is not easy to adjust from sleep to waking up quickly, and people cannot control their emotions normally during this period, and often have a low mood or depression.

Generally, 20 minutes after waking up, the brain returns to a fully awake state, and the emotions are in control, and the low mood will disappear.

It is recommended that napping should not be carried out immediately after lunch, you can take a short rest, or take a little walk, relieve fatigue and then take a nap, generally the body is easy to feel tired after lunch, the main reason is that the gastrointestinal tract begins to digest food after meals, and a large amount of blood flows into the gastrointestinal tract, which can easily lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain. Most young people are tired of work and lie on the table for a while to take a nap, but sleeping on their stomachs for a long time will not only lead to soreness in the arms, blood flow, affect the work efficiency in the future, but also lead to the cervical spine tilt forward, and finally the spine deformation. Therefore, it is best for those who have the conditions to find a comfortable place to squint for a while, or buy a comfortable U-shaped pillow that fits them.

Whether you need to take a nap or not, in fact, varies from person to person, and some people do not have a nap in their habits, so natural napping has become a redundant item.

Taking a nap itself is to make yourself more energetic and better able to cope with the challenges ahead, and if you just take a nap and let yourself fall into a tired and uncomfortable situation, it seems too much. I woke up satisfied with my afternoon nap, and my spirit and mood were good all afternoon. It doesn't take much time, half an hour to an hour is enough, on the contrary, if you don't fall asleep or are woken up, your head will be groggy and you don't bother to say it, you have to get a cup of coffee to refresh your energy.

If you're feeling down after a nap, find a job or goal that keeps you motivated.

It's very special, or it may be that there are some bad things in life that make you feel very depressed, or it may be caused by insecurity, or there is no family at home.

Because of the long nap time, every time I wake up, I feel very lonely in my heart, and the whole world abandons me.

I often have that feeling, that is, when I take a nap or sleep at home in the afternoon, I wake up and face no one in the whole room, and the sense of loss is particularly serious, maybe I am relatively lonelyWhen you see an empty room after sleeping, you will seem to be even less loved, and if someone is waiting for you to wake up, you will not feel this way, and you will feel very happy.

I developed the habit of taking a nap when I was at home before, and every nap would sleep for a long time, and when I woke up and saw the light under the curtains, I was in a trance, and the house was quietI was alone and a few light sources accompanied me, which made me feel a little like a world away, and then I felt very empty in my heart, thinking that I really had no one to love, but in fact, this had a lot to do with my emotions, mainly because I slept for too long.

Therefore, people must set an alarm clock when they take a nap, so as to save their brains from sleeping for too long and not being able to do anything well, especially in the summer when they are napping in the company, they must not sleep for too longI think that a nap of about half an hour to an hour is enough, and you don't need to sleep too deeply, because if you sleep too deeply, it is easy to dream, and if you dream, your brain will become very tired, and you will definitely be in a bad mood when you wake up.

I don't have the bad habits I used to have now, I know how to take a nap in moderation, I usually squint for a while, and I won't sleep too deeplyI know myself too well, as long as I sleep to death, I don't have energy all afternoon, and it will be much better to get up and move after sleep to cheer myself up.

Maybe it's because you had a dream that made you very uncomfortable during your nap. Of course, it's good to go out and take a spin. Or maybe you had some nightmares that affected your mood, or maybe you took a nap with something.

Maybe it's because you didn't sleep well this nap, or you had some nightmares that affected your mood, or maybe you took a nap with something.

If the nap is too long, the brain will be very easy to feel tired, which means that the mood will not be very good, and the heart will be a little empty.

You didn't sleep well this nap, or it affected your quality too much. Or you don't continue to sleep at noon in the future. If you feel empty inside, find someone to fall in love with.

Sometimes you are in a bad mood when you take a nap, probably because you have a dream that makes you very uncomfortable during your nap. Of course, it's good to go out and take a spin.

This is because you take a nap for too long, and you should not take a nap for too long, which will cause you to have headaches, weakness in your limbs, and not want to get up. It will also affect your own mood.

It is often said that the time to rest should be appropriate, so if you sleep for a long time during a nap, it will make people feel tired, so the time for a nap should be appropriate and not too long.

Changes in brain function (emotional perception and ability) during sleep-wake processes.

Dramatic neuroendocrine (neurotransmitters, hormones, peptides, etc.) changes often affect the perception and processing of emotions, making them manifest as abnormal or illogical. It's all of us in adolescence, women in menstruation, and everyone is emotionally unstable before sleep at night (why do people often become hypocritical in the dark?). -Owl of Minerva's answer).

After waking up after a long nap (1h), the neuroendocrine mentioned in Part 1 happened to complete the 'trigger switch mechanism' back and forth at the fastest speed, in this case, the sleep regulation endocrine situation in the human brain is the most drastic. These endocrine changes and regulation begin in the hypothalamic thalamic region of the human brain. This area is the old cortex of the human brain, and its structure and function are very complex and intertwined, and it does not have good functional specificity and functional topology like the cerebral cortex.

Neuroendocrine regulation in this region inevitably triggers seemingly unrelated functional changes.

I think it's because there's too little light in your sleeping place.
