Sleep difficulty: The marks on the side of your tongue are from your pressing your tongue forward into your teeth while you are sleeping. However, your fatigue indicates that you are not having a restful sleep, and the tongue thrusting seems to bear this out. Perhaps a visit to a sleep center and a sleep study is in order.

Maybe OSA: I take it you mean you have a large tongue with imprints of the teeth on both sides. This can be one of the oral signs of obstructive sleep apnea (osa). Being very tired is another sign of osa. You should visit your doctor who can determine if there are other signs of osa and then have a sleep study performed.
