Sounds like your suffering from insomnia. It's not a disease but it can happen sometimes when your stressed out. For others though it's much worse.

What is the right amount of sleep?? but most importantly, what are the right hours to sleep?? If you sleep 8 hrs per day but you go to bed at 1 am do not expect that it is the same as iif you had gone for sleep, say at 11 pm . There is evidence that there is an optimum 8 hrs of rest and that is between 10pm and 6 am the next day, since it is during those hrs that our body takes inventory of what is missing and goes about replenishing it. Meaning if you are out and about during those hrs, not only you are not replenishing but you are 'spending' also additional energy/ body resources at a time when your body is not really prepared to do so. Do not expect such advice to be widely disseminated in our electricity frenzied societies, however if you ask any honest phsyician, they will tell you so.\n\nI have been trying lately (the last 2 months or so) to at least prepare for bedtime at 10 pm, and be under the covers by 11pm the latest, during working days. I still feel drained at times, but I also began to feel a little better during other moments. (It also shows a little in my face too)\n\nAnother possibility of your being worn out, is that there may be some health condition that has not fully manifested. A first and easy step would be just some standard blood tests which are failry inexpensive, that will give you some indication of that, (if any exist)\nA third possibility is that we are all under some intense stress ( I hear more and more people complaining of feeling drained) which is putting us down

You don't do enough to burn all the energy you've stored up from sleeping. Try exercising in the day or dancing in the evening, you'll tire yourself out. Then you'll go to bed easier, and wake up refreshed.\n\nPS it's not that you have too little energy, it's that your not use to using the amount you have.

It's a strange thing but sometimes too much sleep can actually leave you feeling tired, but I dunno any more than that.  Maybe you are just so rested that your body and mind are waking gradually.

I have a few suggestions for you...\n\nI have insomnia and problems sleeping and staying asleep etc, due to a head injury, so I've tried nearly everything to get myself to sleep.\n\nFirst off, if you're in bed and you're not sleeping, get out of it and do something else. Try to keep your bed as a "sleep only" area. \nThat way, when you get in the bed again, you associate it with sleep.. and not like paperwork or phonecalls, etc.\n\nSecondly, tea or warm anything helps sometimes. There's actually a specific tea out there that I found at Albertsons, made by Celestial Seasonings, called Sleepy Time EXTRA. And there's a red flag that says "VALERIAN MAKES IT EXTRA!". Valerian root is a natural sedative. Taken in low doses I have found that it calms, or, in a tea such as the Sleepy Time (It's Chamomile Mint I think, really good with a little honey) it puts ya right to sleep. (high dose)\n\nThere's also another natural sleep aid called Kava. My mom found it in the healthfood store (Rainbow Market) in a little drink called Elixr. The bottle says to drink the whole thing, but I tried just one tablespoon and I was out like a light. I did some research on it, and apparantly the more frequently you take it, the higher dosages you'll need to be able to sleep. (http://www.elixirtonics.com/)\n\nAnd of course there's sleeping pills. Walgreens has "Tylenol PM". That works, or "Simply Sleep", which is essentially the same thing. But it was nice because it did not have me feeling groggy and ridiculous or hung over in the morning. I just woke up feeling refreshed.\n\nYou could also consider prescription sleeping pills. I just got an Ambien prescription... I tried it once and hated it though, guess it works differently for different people, etc. I was miserable all night and felt unrested and a prisoner in my own body. Like my body was dead, couldn't move, but my mind was racing. I was overheating and sweating and couldn't do a damn thing about it. So.. I haven't decided if I hate that or not, I'll have to give it another shot, but I'm hesitant to even bother... \n\nReading helps too.\n\nOr turn on the radio on a quiet channel, or a soothing cd or something, and get it nice and dark and before ya know it, it's time to wake up. It really works.  Just don't put on a station or something that you'll be singing along with, it doesn't quite work out.\n\nAnd sometimes I go in the yard and just breathe. The darkness and the cold air makes me want to bundle up in my bed and usually I just knock right out. Sometimes with a little coaxing from a warm drink too. (non alcoholic of course)\n\nWell then I heard some people drink (alcohol) to relax and calm down and eventually sleep but that's apparantly highly unrecommended.\n\nI always fall asleep on my side with the pillow even under my neck. Maybe you're having trouble with either your pillow or your sleeping position? I read online somewhere that sleeping on your back is bad for people that are prone to snoring who have sleep apnea, because it's harder to breathe and it's not a restful night if they even get to sleep. And I also read that sleeping flat on the belly isn't that great either because your neck is craned to one side, and could lead to neck problems. \nIf you're a belly sleeper, maybe try sleeping with one leg up so that you're not totally flat on the bed. It will also make it so that your neck isn't completely craned to the side, and the pillow can be adjusted around the head and maybe a separate one for under the chest or knee for good elevation so you don't suffocate yourself.\n\nOh and maybe a body pillow too... ever try just holding something to sleep? It could help... pillow, teddy bear, someone.\n\nSometimes when you feel really safe where you are, you'll just knock right out, without a second thought.\n\nGood luck, hope you can catch some

Normal human being have 6-8 hours sleep in 24 hours and its better if one have this duration in a stretch. If your required quta is fulfilled then its psychological factor that you feel asleep all the time. Try to remain busy and have some productive and positive hubbies. By the way, why you laydown so many times?

It's only been a few hours - everything's okay.  It will wear off.  I know it feels weird, and it's probably annoying as heck, but just be patient, and everything will be fine.  Maybe try taking a nap if you can, or do something else to take your mind off it.\n\nA few more hours and it'll be back to normal.

Sleep depravation is very bad for all of us. Seems like you are just exhausted and then you can't think or concentrate. You need more rest whenever you can get it.

Realize that sleeping is not something that you have to try to achieve, its something natural that should occur on its own.\nTrying to go to sleep will only keep you more awake, just lay back, don't think too much and let sleep take over you.\n\nHere's some tips to help you ....\n- Ensure you do not eat anything at-least 2 to 3 hours before bed.\n- If you drink too much coffee or high energy caffine drinks during the day, reduce or try to eliminate them completely. Avoid coffee in the evenings, a cup of tea is better.\n- A cup of hot milk (unsweetened) before bed, should help.\n- A good shower before bed works just as fine.\n- Make sure your bed is comfortable, and the temperature in your room is set to a comfortable setting to your body.\n- If there are any external noises distracting you from sleeping, do something about it to ensure its quiet and peaceful.\n- When laying on your bed. Focus on your breathing. If you find your mind drifting to thoughts, slowly bring your attention back to your breathing.\n- Before bedtime, DO NOT engage yourself in an activity that may get you excited, such as reading a book or watching an engaging TV show, this will only make u more alert. However if it relaxes you, then its fine.\n\nHope these tips help.

what time do you go to bed?\n\nyou might want to examine your sleep hygiene and make sure that you're getting QUALITY sleep... (even if you're getting enough quantity)\n\ndepression can definitely cause insomnia and hypersomia (too much sleep); do you ever feel "blue"?  do you feel stressed?  how's your appetite?  it's still winter (at least in U.S.) and sometime mild depression can be seasonal\n\nsleep problems could also be do to endocrine problems such as w/ your thyroid\n\nhere's what I would do:  1) try to normalize your sleep (go to bed ~same time, wake ~same time, don't eat or exercise close to bedtime); 2)try to exercise regularly (just not within a few hours of going to sleep); 3)eat well; 4)consider if you may suffer from depression (it's nothing to be ashamed of); 5)if it continues, talk to your doctor \n\nalso, consider that different people need different amounts of sleep... some are fine with 6 hours while some need 9 hours\n\nsleep is very important and problems with sleep generally correlate with problems with your health!  take it serious!
