Question
I am a female. I am 23 years old and I feel particularly sleepy every day, taking short naps in the morning and afternoon. I don’t have any obvious discomfort, but I just feel like sleeping, and I have a regular lifestyle. Please answer the doctor, thank you.
Answer
The cause of feeling lazy and weak with excessive sleepiness may be due to mild narcolepsy resulting from physical fatigue and poor mental state. This condition is common in adolescents and young adults, possibly due to a habitual reliance on physical energy to support mental state, which leads to more sleepiness problems when physical energy is severely depleted.
