Does this happen not too long after meals, even if it's just a few snacks?

1. Eat "very" light in the morning before setting out. Don't have breakfast at work. You'll shutdown.
2. Take light lunch between noon and 3pm, you can eat heavy foods after 4pm
3. If you eat late, take dinner between 8 - 9pm, I'm sure you'll feel sleepy almost immediately after. You need to go to bed early in order to wake up early and sharp.
4. Do some exercises
5. Take a moment for some 30mins rest at work if you feel sleepy. That'll be enough gas to take you through the day. You may need to set an alarm so you don't overshoot.

I hope these can help you.

For about 5 years now I've been battling extreme tiredness . Asides that I sleep alot most especially at afternoons. At night,nonce I sleep around 11pm and not going to work the next day, I can wake up by 10am or 11 am.

During afternoon and night sleeps, the sleep is usually very deep (REM phase or whatever you medics call it, please correct me) and usually characterized by heavy dreams.

Even during work, I'll always take the risk to create some time to have a little sleep. I've been battling this for about 5 years now. What could be wrong.

Stop masturbating.

You need to think back to the point this started - did something significant happen in your life? Did anything change..? Or was this a sudden development?

When it started 5 years ago, it was so bad people often asked if I was sick or something.

Cc lalasticlala Dominique pls frontpage.

Age and food have something to do with this.
As you get older Post Prandial Somnolence gets real.
PPS is the sleepiness you get after eating a good meal.
Reduce food intake for a start

Narcolepsy is part of what you described, there is need to see a sleep specialist

Whereas some of us find it hard to sleep.

This life no just balance!!

You're not eating balanced diet and your blood pressure is low

Yes. It's drains energy, the soul and all that is good out of a man, whether physical or spiritual.

You might be anaemic.
Consult a doctor and check your iron level and run other tests. 5 yrs is a long time to keep quiet though.

in terms of energy expended, are maturbation and normal sex the same. If they are not, which drains more energy

You need to consider the following things

Getting fatigue could be a sign of BP or laziness, worst still a medical condition

Eat less for more energy to stay awake during the day

If you should eat beans be ready for sleep no matter the combination of food you eat it with, same thing is applicable to pap

Laziness and also feeling that you don't have any life challenges can also make you to keep sleeping as much as you want just because nothing is disturbing your peace, from their you will ems up becoming not just lazy but a liability to your future partner

Seat yourself down and look deep, you will definitely find out the root to all these tiredness and sleepy times

It happened to me...but to God been the glory.... Mine stopped

It may be the symptoms of hypersomnia, you just need three cup of coffee per day and regular exercise, stimulants herbs like kola nuts, ginger, Cayenne pepper, ginseng, cinnamon and mint leaf or natural antidepressants treatment like cannabis oil, vitamins. If it persist after 2 weeks, you'll need to visit a doctor.

tellsblinks:
Do more exercise

Exercise go double the rate of sleep.

Stop eating heavy duty food like 6 wraps of fufu,Eba.Eat more fruit and exercise

Go for a medica test
sometimes sickness dey hide for inside body
my guess is malaria/typhoid

Hmmm, first pratice walking long distance, to know your endurance level, you need to burn some cholories for energy,

if you still get tired easily, try keeping at it, walking long distance

as for the heavy sleep try taking a little coffe before going to bed, it makes you sleep lightly,


but if it persist, visit your doctor, to run a general test

My friend don't waste your time here in nairaland, nobody will give you good advice here, just use your Google search to ask why you sleep a lot, read through and know the next step to follow, all the information you needed is already out there on the internet

Go and beg your formal girlfriend

From my experience, i am not a doctor, but from what i observe about myself, i think there was a time, i slept anyhow, felt tired and here are some things i observed, about how one can have more strength.

1) Don't be afraid the first thing is, consulting with a doctor to discuss in detail, to know what test he may need to perform, maybe blood sugar test, or x-ray to ascertain if you have a medical condition

2) DIET, have you observed how your body reacts to what you eat, for me, i normally sleep and feel tired after taking pap, so i rather eat moimoi without pap in the morning. Also sugar, I don't take much sugar, my body feels stronger and more focused without much sugar.
If you want mental power take ginger tea, gives you mental power and some strength, it may not be immediate on the day you take ginger tea, the next tea, it will enhance you mental focus and body strength.


3) Consistent Rigorous Exercise. You can improve your strength levels by having rigorous exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, and for three days in a week. Try rigorous exercise for 30 minutes, make sure you are consistent, and at least find time within 3 days in a week, the week end is good and one other day.

4) Try something exciting or something new, meet friends and talk or go out with family to a new place and explore, this will stimulate you brain, and enhance perhaps cortisol, and enrich your mood.

5) I mentioned Cortisol, but i should not have said so in number 4, because Cortisol is related to sexual activity, released after such activity, calms the couples, which is a happy mood hormone, that relieves stress and thus enhance mood and strength in the long run , I am not saying you should abuse sex, but perhaps with you partner, have good time.

6) In Summary, you strength can be increased, if you try some changes maybe in diet, you try consistent exercise, you enhance your mood, and you enrich your daily activity with new productive experiences, you may just need to train your body more, although all this may not be helpful, but there is much you can learn and can be helpful to yourself and others with similar condition.

Have a blessed day.
