Sleep apnea?

Yeah, that's what occurred to me too. Potentially very dangerous - get it checked out by a doctor and a sleep clinic.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Sleep apnea, sleep apnoea or sleep apnœa is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep.

Further reading discovered no discussion regarding sleep apnea as a cause for over-sleeping. The article does suggest that persons with sleep apnea can fall asleep while sitting and resting or having a conversation with others. More information is available at:

Possible, but I highly doubt it. I also sleep very well when I sleep. I rarely wake up while sleeping.
