You might be depressed. You might be stressed out. You might be not getting enough exercise. If you are taking medication, this could be a side effect. In any case, if you are sleeping way too much, you should consult a professional to find out why this might be.

You're trying to avoid life and you don't see a meaning in it. You would much rather spend time in bed alone without having to leave it. It could also mean that you are anxious about having interactions with other people.

Maybe you're depressed and you lost motivation and passion to do things .It can be also that your reality is hard and you try to escape from it by sleeping.

Your body needs more recovery, may it be from physical, mental, or emotional stress, or from illness. Listen to your body and reward it with the sleep that it needs.

It could mean many things. People sleep a lot when they are exhausted; physically ill; stressed or depressed to name but a few. It may be worth seeking advice from a health care professional if you are worried, as it really isn't a simple answer. I would tend to avoid 'googling' the answer as you may worry yourself unnecessarily. I hope that you find your answer :)

It could indicate depression sometimes, but most of the time it indicates that you just have too much free time! Find something exciting in your life and it will be solved!

It could mean that probably your organism needs more vitamins or much more relaxation and less pressure in your daily routine.

Personally, I love sleep. I think sleeping is great, sometimes a great way to escape some of the realities of the world and let the mind wander off and dream in peace. Physically - when I sleep too much, I end up feeling even more tired and subsequently try to sleep more to work it off, which I don't think works very well. Emotionally - I choose sleep because it seems to lay things to rest. Give the soul a break. Sleep doesn't kill you but perhaps there might be something that makes you want to sleep a lot?

if you're sleeping to much it could mean, you're tired, or you may be depressed, I would go to the doctor because it may be serious
