See your doctor: There are many possible explanations for your sleep/wakefulness issue. Your pcp can address your concern and develop a treatment plan. Anxiety, depression, or sleep disorder, as well as other problems may be causing this. Make an appointment and get it addressed. Best wishes!

No.: The problems of excessive daytime somnolence eds is usually due to inadequate or ineffective sleep. You need to see a sleep specialist ify our doctor cannot solve the problem quickly, eg, a change in medication. Sleep deprivation and eds kill 50, 00 people yearly; as bad as alcohol, but more easily diagnosed and treated. Don't wait.
