Have you been experiencing a lot of stress recently?

Sounds to me like you are displaying some of the symptoms of depression...

-fatigue (having no energy)
-hypersomnia (sleeping all of the time)
-change in appetite (which can be either over- or under- eating)

You should consult a doctor or therapist if you experience 5 or more of these symptoms in a two week period, and they have to be different than how you would normally act outside of the last two weeks:

1. Depressed or irritable mood most of the day—nearly every day

2. Loss of interest or pleasure in activities (such as hobbies, work, sex, or being with friends) most of the day—nearly every day

3. A sudden change in weight (weight loss without dieting, gaining more than 5% of body weight in 1 month), or a change in appetite

4. Inability to sleep or sleeping too much, nearly every day

5. Agitation or restlessness (observed by others) nearly every day

6. Constant fatigue or loss of energy nearly every day

7. Frequent feelings of worthlessness or inappropriate guilt nearly every day

8. Difficulty concentrating or making decisions nearly every day

9. Frequent thoughts of death or suicide (or a suicide attempt or plan)

Hope this helps.
