Mom was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease 10 year ago. How can I get her to take a nap in the afternoon?

By the afternoon, my mom's feeling more anxiety and stress. She was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease 10 year ago. How can I get her to try to relax? She already takes Prozac (40mg) and refuses to take a nap. When I try to get her to rest, she starts rearranging her closet, or rearranging her dresser drawers. She refuses to rest, can anyone give me some ideas that would help me?

She may need an anti-anxiety drug in addition to the Prozac, something like Klonopin. Talk to her psychopharm doc.
