If you feel like sleeping during the day, it may indicate lack of sleep, fatigue or stress. But that's not all.

In some cases, this symptom may indicate serious illnesses.

Doctor Sergei Khomyakov spoke about this, RT writes.

As the specialist explained, daytime sleepiness indicates that a person has mental illnesses. This could be depression, anxiety or bipolar disorder.

In some cases, this indicates a vitamin deficiency in the body.

In addition, as Khomyakov noted, this could be a symptom of diabetes, oncology, and various infections.

For this reason, if daytime sleepiness continues to bother you for a long time, it is important to see a doctor.

It is also worth adding that such a symptom can be caused by less dangerous reasons, for example, if a person drinks too much coffee or energy drinks.
