Have you ever been totally wide awake one minute, and then just dose off, or feel like you can't keep your eyes open, the next? I get plenty of sleep, so I know it's not that. Does anyone know why that happens?

it's called narcolepsy...make an appointment with your Dr. to get yourself checked out.

Maybe you have sleep apnea. My mother suffers from it but before she was diagnosed, she swore blind that she got a good nights sleep! She would fall asleep whenever and wherever and she always said that her eyes felt so heavy that she couldn't open them. After a sleep study, she found out that she had only slept for 10 minutes of every hour she was 'asleep', so in the 8 hour study, she had only slept for 80 minutes. She has a severe form of apnea and it is dangerous so go and get checked out. Good luck

Sounds like Narcolepsy. It used to be thought of as a dangerous disease and people were denied driver's licences because of the risk factor. BUT...that was back in the day, and now there are several treatments available. Make an appointment with a Neurologist and get tested ASAP.

Take everyone's advice and see a Dr. ASAP. Besides Narcolepsy another option could be sleep apnea. It doesnt matter how much sleep you get, the question is if you get quality sleep.
And please dont drive until you get checked out!!!

There is a condition called Narcolepsy in which you just suddenly fall asleep. Make an appointment with your doctor to see if that's it, or something else.

You may have sleep apnea, please read up on it. If not you may have narcolopsy read up on that as well and you may find yourself in one or both.
