Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
The same thing happened to me when I was your age, and I can remember my family called me lazy! I was not lazy..I was so very tired! Eventually I got really sick and it turned out that I had mono, probably had it for a long time, but because I was usually very healthy it took a while for the major symptoms to appear. Another time as an adult..I was also that tired, I could barely get out of my car and make it into the house after work. I went to the Dr and had a hemaglobin done and I was anemic. My best advice, from experience.. would be to go to the Dr and tell him how much you are sleeping. Perhaps he will do some tests. If everything is okay, then you can work on something such as getting into a good routine, but best to rule out health causes first.

same thing happened to me when i was that age. always sleepy, very pissed at everyone. most times i would come home from school and plop onto my bed with my shoes still on till dinner, then go right back to bed soon after, usually waking up late for school. cant say as how i figured it out, it went on for about a year then i was back to my chipper self. if you want to get better at staying awake i say invest in an alarm and start drinking coffee or tea.
its just those hormones dude, you'll get over it sooner or later, trust me.

The more you sleep in the afternoon, the longer you'll stay up at night. It'll get to be a never-ending cycle...
Make a plan.
On the weekends, plan on going to bed at 10pm.
Plan on waking up at 8am - you'll get 10 hours of sleep, which is about what the average teenager needs every day, although most only get 6-7 hours of sleep. :S
Keep at this cycle, and on school days, plan on sleeping for 10 hours, going to sleep at 8 or 9, waking up at 6 or 7.
It'll take awhile for your body to get used to it. But if you keep it up, you won't be as tired during the day.
Try drinking coffee in the morning to help wake yourself up - but don't drink any caffeinated beverages after 12 or 1pm because then it'll effect your sleep cycle...
If you need anymore help, feel free to ask. ^_^
Best Regards,
