At one stage I had a desk job which was very boring and I had no interest in it at all. Even though I had slept well, after sitting at my desk for an hour or so my eyes would feel as though they wanted to close and had to fight to stay awake.
I suggest you change your job to something you have an interest in. Either that or take a job that involves moving around. a bit of action.
Of course you could be lacking in something, maybe vitamins or your blood pressure. Pay a visit to your doctor and explain how you feel.
Hope you get it sorted out. There is nothing worse than feeling tired all the time.

Sleepy At Work

Your problem is a complex one. It can happen due to many reasons, they include
Depression
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Anxiety disorders
Other physiological - medical problems
Consult both a physician & a clinical psychiatrist, evaluate and find the cause.
Hypersomnia, also known as excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), is excessive amount of sleepiness.
Even though people with hypersomnia may sleep longer than is considered necessary or healthy, they suffer from an inability to stay awake or alert. They may need to take naps in order to remain awake and alert during their normal waking hours.
Hypersomnia can be caused by genetics (heredity), brain damage, and disorders such as clinical depression and fibromyalgia. Hypersomnia can also be a symptom of other sleep disorders such as narcolepsy, sleep apnea, and restless leg syndrome.
People who are overweight may be more likely to suffer from hypersomnia. This can often exacerbate weight problems as excessive sleeping decreases metabolic energy consumption, making weight loss more difficult.
Another possible cause is an infection of mononucleosis, as several instances of idiopathic hypersomnia have been found to arise immediately after such an infection
In some instances, the cause of the hypersomnia cannot be determined; in these cases, it is said to be idiopathic hypersomnia.
Hypersomnia can be treated with stimulants such as Modafinil or other medications that increase the amount of neurotransmitters in the brain, such as tricyclic antidepressants. Over-the-counter stimulants, such as caffeine, are also used by some sufferers. As this is usually a long term ailment, care should be taken regarding undesired side effects from any drugs.
Take one Wellbutrin SR 150mg in the morning and a Zolpidem (Some trade names of zolpidem are Ambien®, Stilnox®, Stilnoct®, Hypnogen® or Myslee®) just before going to bed.

You have accumulated sleep-debt that can't be erased by just one good night's sleep? And seven isn't enough anyway... ideally it should be 8-9 hours....
Hope you get some rest, I know how much it sucks being in front of a desk with your eyes at half-mast - I do it all the time!

Get at least 8 hours of sleep and have a nutritious breakfast. Your body gets weak without nutrients.

You may also have a low functioning thyroid...check with the doc--tell her your symptoms. You may want to do this earlier. I waited for twenty years...and staying awake during the day is one of the symptoms, along with depression ect al...
