What do you think

I don't know that this is what I have but I know that from what I have read it sounds very familiar. I can sleep for hours yet I am still tired when I get up, I can sleep at anytime of the day or night but am always tired I have very little energy and am lucky if i can stay awake for more than about 2hrs at a time.

Hey,

This could be anything really. I mean, certain metal-toxicities can cause chronic sleepiness; but so can some parasitic infections. I strongly recommend going to your local doctor about this. Chronic sleepiness is not a good thing.

What do you think?

Take care,

You really need a quality time for you to rest and have enough time to sleep.

If you are unable to sleep , you'd by now have realized how irritating insomnia can be . Every person goes through insomnia at one point in his life . It's just natural . I would suggest you change your diet in such a way that it's balanced . If the diet is not balanced it causes a lot of problems . Dehydration causes insomnia too . So you really need to keep yourself hydrated by drinking lots of water and fresh juices . Being hydrated will make sure the body is healthy and pumped up always .Have a great day and Have a good sleep

I too have a sleeping problem. It’s just amazing how I accumulate bad sleep habits over time that can be so hazardous to our physical and mental health, and we don’t even know it! It made me realize how it has had a detrimental side effect on different aspects on my waking life, including my performance at work and my ability to relate to my family and friends. But now, I am beginning to feel the benefits of getting a proper night’s sleep after having a session of Yuen method. During the session, I felt an energy swirling around my head as if it lifts me upward. This sensation went through for the first 10 minutes of the session. After the session, I experienced being filled completely with energy. After the healing, I felt very light and comfortable. It was a very pleasant and very peaceful experience I had. And now, I am living, laughing and happy and have a better sleep.

I totally agree. Hypersomnia is not a very common sleep disorder and there is no guarantee that traditional meds will work (as they didn't with me). Every case is for itself and requires (in my opinion) a consult with a mental specialist. Most sleep disorders are associated with peoples' lifestyles to a much greater extend than with other underlying medical conditions. Identifying what keeps you stressed and dealing with the problem combined with some easy to maintain techniques to live healthier could do wonders for you. Achieving a peace of mind is the best cure for sleep disorders in my own experience.

It sounds like you are not getting proper quality of sleep and it leaves you tired no matter how many hours you stay in bed. You need a sleep study.

The basics of sleep. There are 4 levels of sleep. Level 1 is nodding off. Level 2 is sleep, but not dreaming. Level 3 is dreaming, Level 4 is very deep sleep where even dreams stop.

My most recent sleep study showed I only experienced level 1 sleep and that was badly interrupted by short periods of waking that I did not remember. I would get out of bed exhausted. The day went downhill from there.

It could also be obstructive apnea. Do you snore? If so, you are likely to have some apnea. If you don't snore, you can still have apnea. Snoring and apnea are different, but they often occur together. Apnea is where you stop breathing for a time. The oxygen level in your blood drops which causes you to wake and catch your breath. Most people fall back asleep without realizing what happened. There are 2 types of apnea. Obstructive apnea is caused by the throat relaxing and blocking the air passages. It can be treated with a CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure). It is a mask you wear at night with air pumped into your nose at low pressure. It takes some practice to tolerate it. The second type is central apnea. The brain stops telling the lungs to breath while sleeping. There are some drugs that seem to help this.

Get a sleep study to find out what might be the problem. It really sounds like you are not getting good quality sleep. Once the results are available, the doctor will likely have many more options than I have presented.

These problems can be difficult to solve. Don't permit the doctor to try one or two things then give up. I hear that story far too often. There are more than 2 options for any problem you have.

By the way, I am doing much better thanks to some herbal supplements, meditation, and I sleep on my side instead of my back with 2 pillows under my head. A cool bedroom also helps. I took the TV out of my bedroom too. Your solution may not require an expensive, high tech solution. Find the problem first.

good luck
