      In my case, if I eat around noon, I have to take a nap around 1, I just get super sleepy after lunch and will nod off whether I want to or not, even standing up. Always have. I’m probably meant to be somewhere that does siestas. I do well in heat, too.

      If I don’t have food it doesn’t happen, so it’s definitely the food and not my sleep.

          Literally any food does it. Doesn’t matter what it is or how much. Its just having anything in my belly around noon makes me sleepy as hell.

              Picking apart my diet and habits to try and find a cause for this that agrees with your prior hypothesis is… umm…

              Its always been like this, like I said, regardless of how the reat of my diet and day are structured, its just a thing my body does.

                Got it, later. Keep in mind im just as open to the likelihood i have no idea, its just a curious state ive not heard of. People have covered all the other usual suspects like apnea and such so you do you.

                Apnea is extremely prevalent and underdiagnosed in particular and its not really ever inconsistent with “its how ive always been” because thats the point—they were always undiagnosed until someone nudged them to take a closer look.

                Best

                PS - if your parents have the same tendency it may be hereditary/genetic. Be curious about it, as easy as it is to simply sleep it away it might be your body trying to tell you something important

                If your body was getting sufficient sleep its unllikely you would feel so tired by midday even if there’s a dietary issue at play as well but ill leave it at that. You are your body’s pointperson on whats best for You

                I ('ve) accepted that
