I am really sleepy these days.

Question

i have been really tired lately and i havent really been doing tiring activities. If i would let myself, i could sleep-in till 12 or take long naps in the middle of the day. I play basketball about 2-3 times a week but just for 2 hours at a time so i dont think that would make me that tired! is this bad?

Answer 1

Then go to sleep EARLY.

Answer 2

If you are getting good sleep like 6-8 hours during the night, then you shouldn't feel sleepy during the day. One reason for feeling sleepy is tiredness. Maybe your food intake isn't sufficient. Never go to bed on a empty stomach even if you are tired.

Answer 3

Have your thyroid levels checked.  It is a simple blood test.  If you are hypothyroid it could definitely lead to feeling sleepy.  I was tired ALL the time for several years before I was diagnosed.  )I also was frequently cold and felt like I had no memory) Since starting on thyroid medication (a small pill you take once a day, with almost no side effects) I have felt MUCH better.

Answer 4

Answer 5

It could really be a lot of things.  Lack of sleep.  Worry.  Stress.  If it persists you should go to your Dr. It could be your thyroid or something else.
