tea and sugar pills

I’ve been sleeping a lot lately. This worries me. I usually don’t sleep for more than 6-7 hours a night. And that’s on normal nights. For the last 2ish years, I’ve had rather severe insomnia. So this is a strange and rather unexpected turn around. My past has mostly only had me sleep as much as I have been (upwards of 14 hours in a day) when I was extremely sick.

At first, I thought that maybe it was just depression, as it is sometimes a symptom that comes with depression (though I usually get the opposite effect). I also wondered if possibly it could be caused by my medication, since both my Lithium and Prozac have “may cause drowsiness” as a side effect. Though drowsiness often does not equal sleep in my life.

I’m not sure what to do about this. I’m not even sure I want to do anything about it.
