Very Sleepy after eating;Trouble staying awake at the computer?

30yr old, Male, diabetic "always kept under control"

alittle overweight.

Hello,

I've been having issues staying awake during the day. It started around thanksgiving time this year.

It seems that whenever I eat something "cracker,bacon,gum,etc" I start falling alseep shortly after no matter what i'm doing. I have been falling asleep at the dinner table and its happening whenever I get infront of my computer as well. I just start passing out.

Now I don't sleep good during the night. I'm not sure if this is an issues. But i've had sleeping issues for many years. This falling asleep is new to me. My eyes are wanting to close right now as i'm typing this. Has anyone had these symptoms? Maybe some advice. I know I should see a doctor,but got laid off and loss my insurance. Thanks everyone.

    You might have sleep apnea. That is the first thing you should get checked. Especially if you are a little overweight.
