Not usually...if this is happening on a regular basis you should see your MD as it could be caused by a variety of different illnesses from depression to a major infection in the body to diabetes and more...

Yes, I've done it many times and it looks like you're working on it tonight\n\nIn fact, if we are kept out of the light and unaware of the time many of us have a wake sleep cycle that would have 30 hours of wakefulness followed by 16 hours of sleep.

It's fine to work at at 5.00 am as long as you're getting between seven and eight hours of uninterrupted sleep each night.

Normal human being have 6-8 hours sleep in 24 hours and its better if one have this duration in a stretch. If your required quta is fulfilled then its psychological factor that you feel asleep all the time. Try to remain busy and have some productive and positive hubbies. By the way, why you laydown so many times?

That varies but I tend to be tired all day if I don't get at least 12 hours of sleep.

A normal can sleep 6 to 7 hours a day.Also it is good for health.Where as it is not good for health to sleep after having a lunch or dinner.So adults can have sleep upto 7 hours a day and that's the maximum.So If you are aadult follow this guidelines and have better life for tommorow

depends on how old you are, but basically no. you have to sleep at least 9 hours so if you wake at 7AM that's marginal...

Not enough in general. We need good six hours sleep .\nAlso your age sex your physical conditions the type of work , all play a role. How can I pilot or driver be continuously exposed to short periods of sleep and endangering the life of many.\nIf you are enjjoying holidays and watching WORLD CUP FOOT BALL MATCH DAILY LATE IN THE NIGHT AT PLACES LIKE ASIA then less sleep, intemittent sleep during night and a day time nap is ok. You cant help it. We get to watch such matches once in four years and there is thrill in watching LIVE not recorded and replayed

That is enough sleep for adults.  Children need more, 8-10 hours.  When adults sleep more than 8 hours it is actually bad for their bodies.

I get about 8hrs of sleep. I go to sleep at about 10pm and wake up at 6 am, but thats only because its my senior year (17 years young)of high school and I have like the easiest classes everrrr. Even with my two AP classes I finish homework so quickly. The last 3 years of high school I had alot of homework though so I usually went to sleep like at 2 every night. and got about 4 hours of sleep.

everybody is different. I found out that some people can get by with 6 hours while others need 10 (average 8.) I'm in the 10 hour range, so I have to sleep around 10-10:30.

It really depends on your own needs - some people take naps during the day, others just naturally need more or less sleep.  I have a friend who could sleep 12-16 hours a day if she let herself.  If you find yourself sleeping more than you want, you should be able to slowly change your sleep patterns to something that works better for you.

hey i do that too! apparently its bad for your body because one continous sleep in a dark place is better to rest or vital organs blah blah blah. if you sleep at noon, more than 8 hours, im sure its ok though. as for health. aside from health, it totally affects like meeting people and getting phone calls etc. but you're only concerned about the physical body part of it right? im sure u alrady know its not a really good idea, though unevitable

I get about 6 hours on an average night.  I am a light sleeper and I tend to wake up and not be able to fall asleep again.  At my best I get 8-9.  I am a young adult.
