Am I better off staying up or sleeping for an hour?

A few years ago i used to take a nap every after noon while i was at work. Then after doing this for along time i would have a early day and so i wouldn’t nap at work. And I would be completely buggered by the afternoon.
But now that I dont nap anymore in the afternoon i feel much better all day.

Now i was just continue on and not nap, so i guess its different for each person for how they react to napping.

This is good advice if you are continually in a sleep deprived state. However, if it’s a one off thing with a decent amount of time to recover, I think the all-nighter is better.

It’s a matter for everyone to find out what’s best for them. I, personally, would say that a nap is better than an all-nighter.
