Are you getting enough sleep?

I got ALL the symptoms.

- You need an alarm clock to wake up
- You sleep longer and better on weekends
- You have trouble getting out of bed in the morning
- You feel tired during the day
- You have bags or dark circles under your eyes
- You doze off while sitting in a public place, such as a movie theatre, or meeting
- You doze off while driving
- You have trouble concentrating
- You have early morning headaches

If you notice any of these signs, you may not be getting enough sleep. Try to gradually increase the amount of sleep you get each night until you find the right amount - you'll know that you've got it when these signs start to go away. If you haven't been getting enough sleep for a long time, it may take a while to recover.
