Is it normal to feel tired after being awake for 1/2 hour and taking a 3 hour nap?

Tiredness : No it is not normal. You should be evaluated further by a sleep specialist, including polysomnography to check for things such as sleep apnea, barcolpeay, periodic limb movements during sleep, parasomnias, etc.
