Anyone else becoming shorter when taking midday nap?
« on: September 24, 2018, 08:40:37 PM »

I think my spinal disks are being compressed but I lose around 2 cm when i take a midday nap.
I hate being so self-conscious about this, some days im ridiculously tired but I try to stay awake so I don't shrink

Its small things like that which tilts me towards LL, i want to be a free man again. I want to live without such fear and self-conscioussness.

You don't get shorter laying on your back,It's the complete opposite,axial loading throughout the day compresses the discs,hence making you shorter.You've got it the wrong way round buddy.

I already know the spinal discs get decompressed when i sleep at night, hence feeling taller in morning and shorter in night.
But the midday sleeping is not a joke. It goes in opposite direction, I experience it and thats why I asked if anyone else felt it too.
Its instantly noticable, like the floor is closer to my eyes when i get up from bad.

It doesn't happen.
When I sleep for 1-2 hours after 8-10 hours awake and not laying on my back, I gain about 1 cm.

Anyway, it is impossible to lose height when sleeping. Imoossible. Something you are measuring wrong.
