For the 8 hours per day rule with binders, does that mean 8 hours straight, an accumulative 8 hours, maybe longer accumulatively if you take breaks throughout the day?

Asking bc I put a binder on an hour ago and I’m quickly finding I probably need a nap, wondering if I can sort of reset the 8 hours timer once I wake up or if I need to subtract how long I’ve had it on from the time I have left when I put it back on after the nap. Like can I wake up at 1:30 and wear for for another 8 hours aka until 9:30 or just 7 hours aka until 8:30

8 hrs cumulatively from my experience. i loved my binder and also it hurt so much at the end of the day

i would play it on the safer side and do 8 hours cumulatively and make sure to take breaks. even a well fitting binder can cause damage to your ribs if you wear it too much or while excercising
