In times of boredom, sleepiness and laziness?

Published

I know reviewing for nclex-rn can be so overwhelming for there are alot of things we need to know. What do you guys do when you are answering Q&A in your reviewers and suddenly feeling sleepy? or like ..did you guys ever felt that in the middle of answering questions you find yourself reading in the question but you don't comprehend to what the question is saying? .. I find myself like that at times and I don't know why.:uhoh21:

I don't know if I am the only one experiencing this or not.:thankya:

What do you guys do to fight it?

i feel like that....most of the time! Especially in the morning times, personally..i know this is not the best advice..but I love coffee. So i study with my fave Starbucks..keeps me alert. But when I get really sleepy, that I actually nod off on my books..I just take a nap for an hour. Fixes me every time!

Hope this helps..

Exercise a little. Few sets of stairs or something. It really helps if you're nodding off on night shift as well.

Naps are good, too. Little 20 minute or so power nap. If I sleep much longer than that during the day I'm worthless.
