Sleeping too much

I think I am sleeping too much lately, I don't know if it is an addiction or I'm just tired. I arrived late at my work twice last week and once this week, it's weird as I go to bed early and all...

There could be many reasons, it may be because you havent had enough rest or you've been too stressed thinking of worries, etc. Sleep could be a way to get away from worries/probs but too much of this could also lead to laziness.. Try to have a regular exercise it boosts the endorphins in your body : )

That could be caused for several reasons, including stress or emotional problems, some people sleep a lot to forget what is going on with their lives for example...

I think that I have been sleeping way to much as well. I am not sure why, I might be a bit depressed with the winter blues or something of this nature.
