What Is Hypersomnia, and How Can Excessive Sleepiness Be Managed Naturally? - #15421
I recently started experiencing constant drowsiness, fatigue, and the urge to sleep for long hours, and after some research, I came across the term hypersomnia. From what I understand, hypersomnia is a sleep disorder where a person feels excessively sleepy even after getting enough rest, but what exactly causes it? I read that hypersomnia can be linked to conditions like sleep apnea, depression, neurological disorders, or even poor lifestyle habits. But how do doctors differentiate chronic hypersomnia from normal tiredness or lack of sleep? One thing that concerns me is that hypersomnia can affect daily life, productivity, and mental clarity. What are the best ways to manage excessive sleepiness naturally, and are there lifestyle changes that can help? Are there any Ayurvedic or herbal remedies that help with hypersomnia and boosting energy levels? I’ve heard that Ashwagandha, Brahmi, and Shilajit can help improve mental alertness and combat fatigue—do these actually work? If anyone has experienced hypersomnia, what treatments or habits helped you feel more energized? Did dietary changes, sleep hygiene improvements, or herbal remedies make a difference?
