How Oversleeping Destroys Your Body

We all know that sleep deprivation is bad for us. However, studies suggest that oversleeping might also damage our bodies? What happens if we oversleep? And how can we avoid oversleeping?

In 1963, a teenager named Randy Gardner broke the world record by staying awake for over 290 hours. William Dement, a famous sleep scientist studied how his body changed through sleep deprivation. Sleep normally involves REM and non-REM phases which help our bodies to recover. If we do not sleep (and are sleep deprived), however, our body has several issues. Neurotransmitter levels are dysregulated and we start to hallucinate, be less focused and experience other symptoms.
Similar to lacking sleep, oversleeping also damages our bodies. Oversleeping or hypersomnia is characterized by the urge to sleep and symptoms such as headache or constantly being tired. Roughly 4% of people suffer from chronic oversleeping. Although oversleeping can be caused by depression, an underlying sleep disorder or other syndromes, we can also just get used to oversleep - but that is not healthy. Oversleeping is associated with a variety of diseases including heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes or Alzheimers disease. Furthermore, oversleeping is associaed with obesity, a decreased fertility and a shorter lifespan (30% higher mortality). There are several reasons for this phenomenon including chronic inflammation, an altered metabolism, or hormones or unidentified underlying diseases.
Still, sleep deprivation is also detrimental. Already over 70 million people in the United states sleep to little. And this is bad. It is proposed that 20% of all injuries that result from car accidents can be associated with sleep deprivation. Similar to oversleeping, sleep deprivation is also associated several diseases including diabetes. Studies also suggest that sleep deprivation might cause lasting brain damages but there are more studies needed. If we want to sleep properly we should try to have a sleep schedule, workout during the day and avoid bright lights before we go to sleep.

    8:12 You mentioned that oversleeping can be caused by substance abuse, depression or a sleep disorder. Out of the three mentioned, two of those lead to premature death for unrelated reasons. With substance abuse problems, for example, you are likely to engage in risky behavior such as driving under the influence, or overdosing. When it comes to depression, one of the most common side effects of it is substance abuse and/or taking your own life. The fact that people are 30% more likely to die if they oversleep has little to do with sleep. You are discussing a side-effect of the aformentioned.

What helped me was going to bed the same time each night and allowing myself to naturally wake up at whatever time, and then after a couple of weeks setting an alarm for the average time I’d wake up in the morning. I started to sleep around 12, and get up around 9. then after a month I’d change my alarm an hour ahead, so I’d be sleeping at 12, waking up at 8.

    That was my immediate thought too. There are reasons why people are regularly sleeping the amount that they are and most people who regularly sleep longer either are doing so because of health issues that cause them to be more fatigued and/or only be able to function with that amount of sleep, are not getting good quality sleep for a reason like sleep apnea which is a serious health risk in itself, are suffering from things like stress and depression which can cause increased sleep and other issues, or are just generally lazy and sedentary people who probably do a lot of things that damage their health. Also a lot of people have erratic sleep patterns, under sleeping some nights and over sleeping others, and/or push their bodies and/or minds too far with work, stress, ‘having more to do than hours in the day’, etc. so they may feel the need for more sleep due to exhaustion and burn out or sleep debt. It also makes people more tired if they are naturally night owls but have a job or life situation where they have to get up and function early in the day, and they may find themselves needing more sleep to compensate for always having to get up and function in a part of the day that they were just not designed for. Basically, no matter the reason why people are over sleeping, the reason why they are doing so will also be causing multiple other risk factors in their life. Those are probably doing more damage to their health than the sleep. I totally agree that over sleeping is also better than under sleeping too. Statistics show that the rates of accidents increase significantly on the day that we loose an hour of sleep for daylight savings time, for example, and studies have shown that driving tired or after missing even a relatively small amount of sleep is just as detrimental as driving drunk! Also people who have worked shift work have even been shown to have an increased risk of certain health conditions and causes of death, even years after stopping the shift work, due to the way shift work messes with peoples sleep patterns. It’s also important to mention that different people just different amounts of sleep that they need. It’s only damaging to sleep longer if it’s more sleep than your individual body actually needs, and for a person who needs more sleep then it’s more harmful to try to operate within the stipulated 7 hours of sleep just because that’s the generally recommended figure.

    I tossed out the old concept of "sleep per night" awhile ago. I simply sleep in "sleep cycles". Each one is about 1.5 hours. So, I'll sleep in sessions of 1.5, 3, 4.5, 6, 7.5, 9, 10.5, 12 or 13.5. I simply just let my mind decide, and I listen. It works because I'm semi-retired and self-employed.

    A week ago I was suffering from extreme sleep deprivation and extreme dehydration. I didn’t sleep at all for at least 3.5 days. This was one of the most painful and scariest moments in my life. To put it in perspective I have peptic ulcers and I puke until there is absolutely nothing left, not even bile. I got stuck in a loop where I couldn’t even hold water down, and would just puke it right back up. Because of the pain I was in, no matter how bad I wanted to sleep, I just couldn’t. As for the effects of sleep deprivation, I began hallucinating “spiders” everywhere on the second day. They would scurry everywhere I look and would even combine into these mega spiders. But day 3, that’s where it really got scary. I became dyslexic. It’s very hard to describe, somehow my brain would scramble everything to something that makes absolutely no sense, it would completely scramble to the extent it wasn’t even scrambling letters, but words. For example: “This sentence right here.” Would look something completely non-sensical like “a hxdjs7 j 02h so l.” Thankfully I was able to force myself to chug water and get some sleep. But it was scary to think I was potentially getting BRAIN DAMAGE from that!! Edit: I think the extreme effects I suffered were from the culmination of both sleep deprivation and dehydration. If I was JUST sleep deprived, I think it would not have been as severe!

    Lol ig im gonna have a lot brain damage because I've spent more time than u not sleeping and I'm still here . Like I said in a comment before seeing yours my worst was sleeping only 70 hours during two months. Sometimes there was a whole week not sleeping and then a night of 4 hours. I was just waking up and going crazy because I knew from my past experience that i would not get any more sleep. It made me do dumb things. It was very difficult during 6 months. Each time I was sleeping more and more normally I would just freak out and think what if I cannot sleep. And after thinking that i couldn't sleep for a new period. It led me do drink, abusing meds and wanting to KMS with all those meds because it was too much sleep deprivation and I think he meds I abused were fucking with me greatly. So I made an attempt, inconscious and after that i was forcing myself to be grateful when I was having only an hour or two of sleep. Which is hard. What made me have trouble sleeping was restless legs, a terrible life, the decision of stopping my heavy psych meds and panic attacks and jerks each time I was on the point of falling asleep. It makes me angry to here that people have trouble with sleeping too much but I totally understand this is valid and bad for the health too.

    I’m watching this video as someone who has been diagnosed with hypersomnia, narcolepsy, and severe clinical depression (chemical imbalance). As testing showed, I automatically go into REM sleep and spend the entire night in REM, never truly achieving a deep sleep. Since my brain is active all day and all night, I feel I am constantly running on half-battery. And since I spend all night dreaming, I have a poor grasp of time and memory problems. The day before feels much longer ago than for others. I wish I weren’t so tired right now.

    I am suspecting that I might suffer from hypersomnia. I can easily sleep more than 13 h (one time I slept for 24 h). I don't wake up from alarms too easily (can snooze for hours before I realise whats happening,) and I am also almost always tired and I suffer constant headaches and pain in my joints. I have moments here and there where my sleep works but more often than not I always have issues with sleep. I also feel like my dreams are very long and intense and its almost like living a whole other life in those dreams, making waking up confusing hard difficult :o I prolly don't have hypersomnia but it seem to fit me so well.

During the times when I sleep very little, I cannot fall to sleep no matter how hard I try. Conversely when I begin to sleep, I feel terribly sleepy and simply cannot stay awake. During the sleepy times I always wake up feeling hung over, confused, and with a bad headache. I have been thinking that this could kill me someday. Now I know I really need to see my doctor!

    I'm also on the Autism spectrum with potential ADHD and/or OCD so just being awake and "productive" for a few hours is so exhausting for me because I have to self-regulate so much. On most days I end up taking a nap in the afternoon for several hours to recharge a bit before dinner and night time activities. On nights I get less than 8 hours of quality uninterrupted sleep, my symptoms will amplify to an unmanageable level and I'll typically have a panic attack or sensory meltdown and then crash halfway through the day. Whenever things get to be too much to manage for me I slip into delusional self-persecutory thought patterns which only makes things so much worse. I've felt most stable on days when I've gotten 10-12 hours of sleep total, which idk if it's because of the sleep itself or if on days when I can do that I'm typically under a lot less stress. What sucks most for me is that I can function well enough to mask when sleep deprived so no one assumes there's anything wrong and expects me to do a regular workload without any consequence.

    I'm afraid I either sleep too much, or too little. Never inbetween, probably mainly because of Insomnia. Even better, don't know if this happens to anyone else, but generally, sometimes before you're about to conk out, you get a random jumpscare, shooting you straight back to being fully awake. To add to more trouble, sleeping tablets (unless very strong) doesn't do a literal thing. Sleeping too much generally happens, but weirdly only during the day. And i mean, the whole day. Usually wake up feeling worse than i did, half passing out on a chair. Another point to mention (sorry to rant on), hypersomnia can be caused heavily by using substances. For me, during a period of heavily abusing something in detail, i'd wake up, use it again, pass out. This happened for about 2 months, and you'd generally feel shit always. Headaches, dryness, grogginess, and even heavily on your weight.

    If sleeping more than 8 hours carries a risk of heart disease, obesity and diabetes, how does that align with the studies that show that sleeping more helps with not getting obese but improves body composition, performance enhancement and building more muscle with less fat cumulation? Like the results were not only that sleeping enough improves this, but that sleeping "too much" as well. To me those improvements in body and performance are directly in opposition with heart disease, obesity and diabetes. For example athletes don't look obese or diabetic but try to sleep as much as they are able to. This begs the question: what kind of studies were exactly performed and on who? Was it backwards conclusions from correlation to causation? Like people who are obese and diabetic (perhaps undergoing increased inflammation) or have some other sickness that alters life and behavior sleeping more due to their condition having more recovery demands instead of sleeping too much causing it? Depressed people often sleep a lot, but is depression caused by sleeping too much? Was caffeine usage monitored in these tests? From what I've understood body is generally very good at regulating sleep needs, like you find that you can't sleep once you wake up after certain period of time. And on the other hand you might feel tired if your sleep quality was poor and feel the need to sleep more. Similarly to being sleep deprived you might sleep more, and on the other hand when you've been well rested and relaxed you might find yourself sleeping a bit less. Unless: there's conditions that affect that. But just like modern people drinking too much caffeine and affecting their sleep quality and having a need to sleep more than the average. You did provide a lot of studies as reference, but like a normal internet person, I didn't read through them, and I doubt I'm qualified enough to spot all the things in the studies that can be concerns regarding making strong conclusions from the results. I'm also not sure if some of the conclusions were based on mechanistic studies, which regarding human body always feel a bit iffy unless there's also a practical study showing that it has a noticeable impact in real life situations. Are there many studies that show no effect or contrary effect (other than sports science)? In summary, I gained a lot of new information from the video, but I'm still not convinced that it's more than an indicator of underlying issue rather than possible cause of health conditions. Thanks for the video and especially thanks for listing all the source studies, that's a huge part of transferring educational science content - to challenge viewers to not only think about it but also do their own reading on the topic and verifying what they hear. Obviously most, like I admitted before of myself, are not qualified to analyze the studies regarding study population and methods and conclusions, but at least they can check that these studies exist and that they said what you heard. And I believe part of educational science is not only to spread information/knowledge, but also challenge what was said and what they heard and bring some discussion (obviously in respectful manner and basing arguments on something, I don't mean just throwing conspiracies in or using extremely biased sources). It might lead to the persons involved agreeing or disagreeing, but everyone should be more informed afterwards, no matter the stance or belief.

    I have what I'd call an incredibly rich dream life. I've taken medication that's made it more intense (Effexor ftw 🙄) but I've also just struggled with that and chronic fatigue since before the meds as well. For me that means that even if I get a full 8-9 hours I still usually feel the need for a nap anyways because my sleep is not usually "restful" or "restorative" under those conditions.

    It's been shown in studies of blue zones that community is a strong factor in longevity. It wouldn't surprise me that much of the negatives associated with mental illness, poor sleep, and illness are inversely correlated to a strong sense of place within your social sphere. Also Im sure much of those things cause each other, any one can cause the other in any direction. Empathy and connection are the antithesis to dissociation and separation. Life vs death in a sense. Meaningful relationships, while not a cure all, are vital to forming healthy lifestyles. They also just give you a reason to get up in the morning.

    I also do a compressed shift, there are times that during holidays the company will request overtime and put it at unlimited. When you hit 60 hrs you get double time and if you work nights you also get 15% more pay than day. So when this happens we have a lot of people that will work 16 hr days. Sometimes 4-6 days in a row so they can basically make their entire months pay in this one week of OT. Even the Holiday time is payed in double time. It is not a healthy way to work at all , but with the capitalism getting greedier and greedier, some people have to work like this to make ends meet.

    We *REALLY* need to get over this misconception of 8 hours of sleep. It's technically 9 or 7.5 hours. That's because we sleep in cycles. Now the length of these cycles can vary a little from person to person, so yes it COULD be 8 hours for you, but on *average* these cycles are 90 minutes. Which means the average person need either 6, 7.5, or 9 hours of sleep. Like I said these cycles can vary per person woth maybe like 5 to 10 minutes (per cycle), either shorter *or* longer, but even up to 10 hours is not necessairly over sleeping. I am best rested with 9 hours, but one of my best friends likes to sleep for 10 hours to feel optimally rested. Remember, with this kind of thing it's very simple: *If it feels good, it is good.* *TLDR;* We sleep in cycles of approx. 90 min. Aim for anywhere between roughly 7 and 10 hours per night and just remember, with this kind of thing, IF IT *FEELS* GOOD, IT *IS* GOOD.

    I used to think that way, got very obsessed about the 90min cycles that I always timed my alarm perfectly but it just isn't that black and white. Cycles vary a lot from person to person and the only way you find out your own personal "time" is just through trial and error over the years. I can do 7 hours and I will feel like DEATH incarnated. Bump it up to a round 8, even though it's supposedly mid cycle, it makes a massive difference and I can actually leave the bed.

    My sleep schedule is like combining oversleeping and sleep deprivation. It's very common for me to sleep around 10-13 hours "daily". Then again when something has to be actually done, I have to stay awake and then being awake for 18-40+ hours is usual. Some times after a long period of being awake, and/or getting short sleep for a few days, I may sleep 16-20+ hours. I've been asleep for 20 hours without getting up at any point. One time I slept for 22 hours. I have kind of "sliding" sleep schedule and every once in a while it just goes to "normal mode" out of the blue, with pretty much spontaneous waking up at mornings and natural need for sleep in the evenings. Though it is very uncommon and usually lasts for maybe a month at a time, max. I do think I have autism, sort of an ADHD, but kinda without the hyperactive part and interest toward perfectionism. Often times when the night comes, I feel the need to get something (projects) done or watch youtube, gather information on something etc. My inconsistent sleeping habits have wreaked havoc to my employment and integration towards society and as things sit, I don't really see other options than to become a sort of an entrepreneur. There are those mornings that I simply can't get out of bed but it is not accepted in any part of "proper" society, even though I would do a shit ton of work to even overcompensate the loss of working hours.

    If your mind is racing, you have hyperactivity, just in the mind. Also, I relate to this type of sleep schedule, I've been actively trying to staying awake for 36 hours (4-6am - 4-6pm the next day) and sleep for 12, because when I get 12 hours exactly, I feel bloody fantastic, refreshed, able to take the next "cycle" (day-night-day awake) on by the horns. When I get 9, I can function, but any less and the day is ruined, I literally cannot do much, maybe one productive thing if I force myself. So far, I can stretch it to 24 hours before conking out. Which is no good cause it throws the whole schedule out of whack.

    I overslept for a year and a half recently, no work or only part part time work, no life, so I remember sleeping all morning and day and not getting up until 8pm. But the depression and drinking probably helped that along as well. Now I work every single day, have had one day off in the last two months, I rarely sleep but I am fine. I think it works because I am so busy and don't have time for anything else, when I had all that free time I was super depressed, my arthritis felt a lot worse, but now working 60 hours a week on my feet all day I don't think about it that much, I still get stressed and all that but everything is not as bad as when I am a lazy piece of shit. Plus I have money so I can use that and be like well I am just working, have no life, but while at work I can think about what I want to do or buy or eat when I have a moment and you just use that to keep you looking forward to something at least rather than nothing so that helps. Do whatever you need to do, one thing I did that really changed a lot was when I got a new phone number after forever, that has been great, you are basically blocking the past, and then you wonder who if anyone has that number now? I can imagine the amounts of calls they are getting from all those telemarketers and debt collectors and other psychos, I am sorry, if it gets too bad change your number! Change your number, never put your actual address in the first place, make them do the work, they will give up and forgive all that.

Was referred to a sleep specialist and after a polysomnography and MSLT was diagnosed with Idiopathic Hypersomnia. After repeated sleep studies the diagnosis was changed to Atypical Narcolepsy - when I lived in Tokyo took part in a study at Tokyo University conducted by Yutaka Honda who discovered the HLA haplotype (the genetic marker common to people with narcolepsy). In my 40s my sleep disorder became debilitating - had a stressful job in financial markets and worked up to 12 hours a day (thanks to stimulants) but would then sleep all day Saturday. Apologies for the digression- the point I wanted to make is that *if you have sleep problems please go see a specialist for an overnight polysomnography in a sleep lab.*

    I have "Long Phase Idiopathic Hypersomnia" which I started to see the effects of around the age of 7-8 and has ebbed and flowed in varying degrees of severity over the years until I reached the age of 40 when it seemed to steadily get worse until it plateaued to the moderate to severe level it is at now (I'm 47). No matter how much sleep I get, my brain and body functions as if I'm 2-3 days sleep deprived...this is something I have gotten used to and compensate for pretty well so long as I'm strict about taking my sleep aid meds at night by a specific time to ward off insomnia and I at least get 4-6 hours of sleep during that period. The less sleep I get at night, the more hours of sleep deprivation that get added on to what I'm already naturally deprived of at baseline. This makes trying to get through the daylight hours absolutely hellish and when I start having more premature ventricular contractions than normal, that's when I know I've gone too far on not getting enough sleep at night and it is time for self-correct...cause if I don't, then I know the next symptom I'm going to start experiencing is Orthostatic Hypotension which can be potentially dangerous for me since it involves my heart rhythm getting thrown off, not just my blood pressure dropping. But, by far the worst part of this sleep disorder is the oversleeping. Because my sleep rhythms are abnormal my mind and body naturally want to sleep 10-16 hours. If I go with what my body and mind wants over a span of several days, I end up having symptoms similar to Fibromyalgia where I have widespread inflammation throughout my body, especially in my tendons and joints, I begin to experience blood thinning (which Doctors still can't figure out), and slow wound healing (I had bug bites on my legs from working out in the garden that I never scratched or picked at, but they took TWO MONTHS to heal...and even here a month later, there are a few dark marks that haven't fully gone yet)...and while the weight gain is a thing, I'm lucky that it is only 5-15 lbs that don't push me into the overweight category, and it goes as quickly as it comes on. Oh, and the headaches with oversleeping are not headaches...they are brain crushing migraines. So, the consequences on my physical wellbeing from over sleep, do seem more drastic than those I get from not sleeping enough. That being said, despite a well managed sleep routine, I still struggle with malfunctions of my autonomic nervous system that can cause dangerous spikes in my blood pressure (which is typically in the healthy range) out of no where, if I get upset...especially angry, my blood pressure can decide to just bottom out which is again, dangerous...my blood sugar too can totally bottom out, even when I have eaten recently. There have been many times it is like my brain forgot how to tell my mouth and esophagus how to work together to perform the act of swallowing and the scariest thing I have experienced is a hand full of times I was just about to fall asleep and my brain decided to just skip out on sending the signal for my lungs to expand...it takes me sitting up or standing up for my brain to go "OH! YEAH! MY BAD!" Again, all that latter stuff is when I'm getting proper sleep. This sleep disorder is no joke...and the necessity for just the right amount of sleep is not something to take for granted. Not getting enough and getting too much can literally end you way sooner than you'd like and the health issues it can cause before hand are in no way fun...they are debilitating.

    Wow! The first thing I noticed and an really impressed by is your insight and awareness for what if happening and why. I can relate to having almost too accurate of insight and it seems to be benefiting you some in your life. I can relate to a lot of your symptoms and the struggle of not enough or too much sleep causing symptoms one way or another. I'm also diabetic and this of course is a main factor in my symptoms and moods and sleep. Since you mentioned blood sugar levels I was curious if you were also diabetic or not? With the insight you have I suspect your quite aware of how high and low can affect you as well as fluctuation. Anyways I hope your day is good.

    It's scary how close this is to my experience. :( I am in my late 20s and have been (finally !!) diagnosed with idiopathic hypersomnia a couple of years ago, and it's the first time I find such huge similarities with another person, notably how early it started, and the hypotension I was diagnosed with first that just gets worse with more sleep, let alone the feelings, blood acting up, and migraines that are pretty much the same and I hate it, I'm even suspecting some form of diabetes at this point... I can only sympathize. The only difference is I tend to loose a lot of weight because I don't eat at enough intervals, since I sleep all the time. Weight's been impossible to keep steady.

    At one point I was so depressed it was better to spend 14 hours a day getting ripped apart by zombies or having all my teeth rot out than be consious for even a few minutes. I'd wake up screaming then go right back down. Eventually I'd have to wake up and be even more tired than when I went to bed. Turns out I function better on 2-4 hours of sleep at a time cause I don't get into REM and have full blown nightmares.

    My mother has been sleeping too much for the last 50 years. She’s now 93. She’ll probably live to be 100. She’s also been an awful, abusive person her whole life. Copious amounts of sleep, and Evil, are excellent preservatives.

    I always wake up automatically after 6-7 hours of sleep and I feel refreshed, so I'm good. My fitness tracker also shows me that I get adequate deep sleep.

    I think it's just if you have a damaged body, then you tend to oversleep and oversleeping well you'll just burn slightly less calories if you oversleep but your circadian rythm won't be disturbed.
