A member asked:
I get seven to eight hours of sleep but im still sleepy why is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Snore, overweight: The most common reason is if you snore or are overweight. You won't go into uninterrupted deep sleep which is needed for proper rest. Also, you could be dropping your oxygen level during sleep which will put stress on your body. See a sleep specialist for a formal sleep evaluation.
