i have the same problem, but i play tons of sports. i am a very deep sleeper, nothing can wake me up. i can sleep for 14 hours straight. but it seems like the more i sleep the more tired i am. when i only get 5 hours of sleep im more awake than when i get like 12
you need to look into any medication that you are taking to see if any of these side effects are coming from that direction . do u have high or low blood sugar? also do u have anemia? low blood? this can make u very tired. you may also be depressed. talk to your doctor!! thats way too much sleeping

If your finding yourself always tired, it could be a lot of things. First off it could be anemia. Which is a lack of red blood cells (They carry Oxygen). 2nd, you could have an illness called Mono. 3rd, you may just be not getting enough sleep. 4th you could betaking a new medication that causes drowsiness...

I strongly advise that you go see your family doctor who will do some simple tests and send you for blood work.

Hope this helps.
