Or something else.
Hi.
I'm Nicole,
And I'm a sleepoholic.
......Hii Nicole.....
Haha, I do make myself laugh sometimes.
Anyway,
Lately (or ever since I've started this semester in college)
I tend to sleep.
A LOT.
Not only do I get between 6 and 7 hours of sleep at night,
But if I don't come home and nap for at LEAST 2 hours when I get home, I just can't take it. My eyes.
Will.
Not.
Stay.
Open.
And it sucks, because it's really screwing with my college work.
I've been known for depression (self-diagnosed)
but could this be a real wake up call?
Or could I have mono.
I don't know. But is there ANY advice that could help me get through the day without naps?
Thanks.
Oh, and happy valentines day. :)

Throughout the day when I'm going to my classes, I'm usually fine.
Exhaustion surely fits.
But I wouldn't know what to do about it.
It may very likely have to do with your diet and weight as well as possibly being low in iron. Unfortunatly these things all sort of cluster together.
You could start by taking a multi-vitamin with iron and see if you notice any difference within a couple of weeks. Exercise will also help.
It very well could be depression too though. You sound exactly like me when I was in high school and for me it was a combination of all of the above.
