Why Does My Boyfriend Sleep All The Time?

April 2023 · 2 minute read

The first step is to recognize that not everyone operates on YOUR timetable! And it’s a good thing they aren’t because things would be quite different otherwise. In this scenario, food would not be delivered on time, there would be no doughnuts available at the store in the morning, there would be twice as many trucks (and traffic) on the highways throughout the day, and so on.

We are in desperate need of individuals who are able and ready to work late into the night, and some of us do so because our internal clocks are different.

Regarding his health, if he is receiving 5–8 hours of sleep each ‘day,’ it is unlikely that it will have an adverse effect on him unless he is being ‘forced’ to sleep at times when his body does not want him to. I barely get 5 hours of sleep a night (my wife requires 8), and anything less than 4 makes me feel exhausted… Anything more than 7 o’clock and I’m exhausted! It took a bit for me to figure everything out.

Please be considerate of one another’s schedules.
Whether it’s late at night or early in the morning, try to keep an awareness that your spouse is sleeping—and avoid disturbing them if possible. You should wear headphones and install a nightlight in your room so that you can get into bed without having to switch on the lights (or crashing into anything in the dark).

It’s possible that he has a sleeping problem. In such a scenario, your partner should consult with a medical professional. Depression is well-known for producing extreme tiredness and an overwhelming need to sleep all of the time. Furthermore, depression medication must be closely watched and titrated since what works for one person may not work for another (Celexa was terrible for me but Wellbutrin worked wonders, for instance).
