Hypersomnia:Information, Symptoms and Causes

Hypersomnia is an excessive amount of sleepiness, resulting in an inability to stay awake.

Even though hypersomniacs sleep more than is considered necessary (or even healthy) at night, they may still need to take frequent naps during the day.

Symptoms

The symptoms of Hypersomnia are simply excessive sleepiness.

Causes

Hypersomnia can be caused by a range of factors, such as:

  • Being overweight
  • Heredity / Family History
  • Brain damage
  • Depression

Random Sleeping Tip
People who are in the habit of resisting their sleep can just lose the normal sleep cycle not only for that night but for weeks because then they would sleep late and would wake up late and this will only be corrected when they would be taking the step of sleeping early one night and then waking up at their regular time. Therefore it is really important that if you are feeling that you need to sleep an hour or two before the regular time then go for it and do not resist.
