Lately I've been getting around 12 hours of sleep a night (bad bad I know) and I'm tired the rest of the day. Is it from sleeping too much? Should I try and get 7-9 hours in stead?

Either too much or you could be eating a certain food that is triggering poor sleep.




Probably from sleeping too much. The body goes through phases like this. I do. Maybe you need it though.

Yeah, sleeping that long feels good, but it makes me more tired than if I only sleep 7-8 hours a night. Sometimes the body just needs that rest, especially if you're working a lot. Physical jobs like dancing really take it out of ya.

OMG, I wish I could sleep half that much.

Yes, oversleeping will make you letharic the rest of the day. You need to set an alarm.
^ And exercise if you don't already.
It could also be illness? Maybe you should go to the doctor's to check it out. I was always complaining that I was tired because I was sleeping around 15 hours a day and waking up still tired, and everyone kept telling me that I was tired because I was oversleeping.
Turns out I had Glandular Fever (sorry I don't remember the American name for it?).
You can have other symptoms like, sore throat, flu like symptoms, but you don't have to have any at all other than being lethargic.
I had that plus weight gain. Your doctor can do a simple test to find out.
