Hypersomnia: Obviously, this is greatly impacting your life. The hypersomnia and exhaustion have many possible causes. At this point, I would definitely recommend that you seek medical evaluation to get to the bottom of this. I hope you are well soon.

Exam please: A complete history and exam are necessary to help properly diagnose your condition. Do you drink coffee or soda pop? Do you use presribed or illicit drugs? What is your diet like? Have there been any unusual stressors in your life? Also standard lab studies can help rule out anemia, infectious diseases or other illnesses. Please go to a clinic for a full evaluation.
