Help me! I am having Hypersomnia
For a couple of weeks there has been an urge that keeps making me sleep for almost a day(12hrs or more), if i go to attend my classes then i don't sleep there but do feel fatigued. Otherwise if i stay home i sleep all day, i just don't feel like to work
I am really getting frustrated due to this, when i search on the internet it says Hypersomnia. I want to confirm if it is that or something else is leading itself to Hypersomnia.
I hope you can help me.
