Could spending too much time in front of the computer cause drowsiness and somnolence?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Monotonous work or actions tend to be boring and loss of interest may incite drowsiness. But again, this should not cause sleepiness. Consider 'loss of sleep' in the night .. Like in 'sleep apnea' and myriad other sleep problems.
