I just slept for 20 hours. What's wrong with me?!
Question: I just slept for 20 hours. What's wrong with me.?
Hi, I'm a high school junior and i don't get alot of sleep during the week. i probably average around 5.5 hours of sleep each day then came friday night, i came home from school at like 3 pm and i simply knocked out on my bed and woke up the next day at 11 AM. Is something wrong with this.? I've been doing this for the past month on each Fridays... is something wrong!.?! thanksHealth Question & Answer
Answers:
You are not getting enough sleep. You need at least 8 hours a night. Because you are not getting this during the week, your body is trying to make up for it on the weekends. This is not healthy, and can lead to more health problems down the road. Your thyroid could be affected, you could develop a mood disorder, there are all sorts of things that could be caused by lack of proper sleep. I would suggest reevaluating your bedtime routine to make sure that you are able to get 8 hours of sleep each night.Health Question & Answer
