Anybody else TOO SLEEPY to function??

...See more I've been going through a lot of emotional and mental duress over the past 6-8 weeks (my therapist wanted me admitted cuz it was so bad... which is why I tried out 7 Cups in the first place & so far its helped me a lot) and this week I got absolutely b*tch-slapped with a FATIGUE sledgehammer. I've slept close to 80 hours over the past 6 days, including taking quick naps during my breaks at work. I have NO IDEA why I am suddenly so tired all the time. At first I assumed it was because of my monthly Flo Visit, but usually I never get this tired (and if I do I can drink a small coffee & be fine the rest of the day)Then I thought it may be because of all the stress finally catching up with me? I dont want to schedule an appointment with a doctor just for them to tell me I "just need more rest" & send me home with an astronomical bill. I am wondering what I should do? Could it just be from over-stressing or should I see a doctor? (this has only been happening for about a week or so) I was also gonna ask my mother for her opinion (shes been a nurse for 28yrs and is currently studying to be a doctor) but I was also curious if anybody else on here has had this happen or has an opinion of what this might be? Any coping mechanisms I can do to help me be less tired? (aside from sleeping or OD-ing on NoDoze pills) Any advice is appreciated!
