Why are you even more tired after you get too much sleep?

Why do I always feel tired even though I workout and get 6-7 hours of sleep?

• I workout 3-5 times a week in the gym - lifting weights. I get about 45-50 hours of sleep during the week. 6-7 hours every night and then up to 10 hours on each weekend day. I still wake up everyday with my entire body feeling tired like I want to stretch badly or get a massage to make me feel better. I am 28, 5'9" and 170 pounds. Other than epilepsy (I control it by medicine and the last time I had a seizure was in 2004), I am a healthy person. This tiredness started happening end of last year. I do work a lot since I work for a smaller company and there are tight deadlines. I spend up to 15 hours a day on the computer both work and personal. But this shouldn't really be relevant to my tiredness or is it?

• Answer:

  Have you explored a sleep disturbance? And I have read that most people require approximately 7.5 to 8 hours per night consistently.  You could read some of the information at http://yoursleep.aasmnet.org and see if that offers you anything new.
