Understanding Hypersomnia

Hypersomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness. It is important to understand that hypersomnia is not just a result of normal tiredness or fatigue. Unlike feeling tired after a long day or experiencing fatigue due to physical exertion, individuals with hypersomnia struggle to stay awake during the day, even after getting a full night's sleep.

This constant feeling of sleepiness can have a significant impact on daily life, work, and relationships. Imagine feeling drowsy and lacking energy throughout the day, making it difficult to concentrate at work or engage in activities with loved ones.
