A sleeping disorder characterized by attempting to go to sleep earlier than usual, only to wake up a couple hours later. This is due to the person's brain thinking they are only taking a nap, rather than wanting to sleep for a full night.
Affects mostly frequent nap takers, night owls, and those with no sleep schedule.
