Or maybe you're just not used to sleeping in the recliner? If so, could you rig up your wheelchair so you could nap in it--as you apparently are doing, but making yourself more comfortable so your head is supported better, for instance?

Just a thought.... I'm sold on the idea of getting enough sleep.
