Is it normal that my girlfriend sleeps for 12+ hours every night?

Think you need to get her a 23 and me test

She might have Koala in her ancestry

It's not weird if she has ADHD....Legitimate ADHD - Means that she has received a full (at least 8 day) diagnosis by either a psychiatrist who "specializes" in ADHD and not ADHD, BI-Polar, Hoarding....not a Doctor that has 20 specialties...Or, a Neurologist. Teachers..have absolutely no business diagnosing anyone for ADHD...One of the signs/symptoms is needing at least 10 hours a sleep at night. A few others are: Can only absorb info on the subjects she interested in and what she does well.....she does extremely well..., has trouble staying organized, constantly losing things like car keys, glasses, cell phone...etc, Is she late all the time at least 10 mins if not more..you can research it but I know from very personal experience that needing at least 10 hours sleep a night is a sure sign of ADHD along with the others.....

There are lots of medical reasons why someone would feel they need so much sleep. She could go to her gp and get a blood test. That would be a good start to identifying what the problem is. A common possibility is a vitamin deficiency. Don't underestimate those, they can really mess you up.

Some people require more sleep.

I'm one of those people. Even as a child I slept for very long periods of time and it would scare my parents because they wouldn't see me until nighttime. Now as an adult, I complain about there not being enough hours in the day, because I can't get the sleep I need. Thankfully, my boyfriend understands and just lets me sleep on my days off.

Drugs

Update: I confronted her about it again and she said it's because she's depressed and jobless and doesn't feel like she has much else to do. But now that I'm working, I stressed to her how important it is I get to talk to her before I go to work. She said she was sorry for letting her negative emotions get the best of her and she's been trying and succeeding the past couple nights to wake up around 11am.

I have had 3 doctors tell me that with my genetic conditions I need 13-14 hours of sleep each night. It could be her genetics.

Oversleep tends to make us more tired. Depression does as well. Exercise, especially in the morning, gives both a healthy amount of energy, and an ability to sleep soundly at night.

Habits both good and bad are tough to create and tough to break, but are huge in so many facets of our lives and are worth recognizing and trying to improve.

She might really like sleeping.

Or... She might have underlying issues, I could probably name at least a dozen really bad diseases and mental illnesses.

But you really shouldn't think too much into it, I also have a couple friends that just really like sleeping the day away.

Maybe she's depressed, or has sleep apnea?

That's weird AF, but some people just sleep more.

I sleep alot when able. Used to sleep 10 hours every night 12 onoccasion. Working 2 jobs now I'm lucky to get 7 hours a night and in my day off I cant sleep cause I'm to used to waking at 6 or 7 every morning

Wish I could have 12+ hours sleep every night, I bet if I did, I would be a much more peaceful person.

You will sleep 12 to 18 hours per day if you take zyprexa.

Sounds as if that's normal for her and also normal to want to do other things rather than sleep when she's with you.

If she's not worried about it I don't think you should be.

Ok what the fuck?

Wake that lazy bitch up!! Get an alarm!

Does she have a job? If not tell her to get a damn job. Who on earth has the that much free time to sleep.

This is how I would play it. She falls asleep lets say we give her the full 8hrs. But it goes to 8hrs and a minute…

Shove the D in the A! Like super hard.

Wake that mofo up in a second! Just be sure to get her to sign some consent form first…

Or forge the signature your choice.
