Have you ever accidentally slept the entire day away from pure exhaustion?

This happened to me years ago as a pre-teen after a long trip me and my family had taken, we were all so tired we meant to only sleep for a little while but instead of having a short nap I slept all the way until the next day, I think it was from 9 in the morning until 12 noon the next day. I thought to myself WOW! I slept the entire day and never woke up for even lunch or dinner or to do anything wired huh? Has this ever happened to you in your life completely by accident and what did you think when or if it happened?

Whenever I do sleep the day away, I always feel guilty. Especially if it is a beautiful sunny day.

It happens so often that I don't think much of it anymore.

Oh I honestly thought that sleeping the entire day away was a bit more rare but I guess not. for me its a very confusing thing whenever it happens, though I can only remember one incident so far but I have a feeling its happened before I hate to waste an entire days.

It's funny lol. I already slept since +/- 2pm till 9pm the other day. I slept till I couldn't sleep more. When I woke up I told my mother.. ok, where is dinner? And she told me "today's dinner or from yesterday?". First I didn't realized, but then she told me, and I were astonished about that. I didn't slept the night before because I had an Chemistry Exam that day, so I spent all night studying and drinking coffee. I made the exam, then I returned home. I told her I didn't want to eat because I just were exhausted. didn't had the strength even to eat. Went to bed... and you know the rest zzZZZzzz :p.

I want to accidentally sleep for the whole day but it seems that its impossible. lol There are so many things in my mind that it makes me wake up even if I am asleep. Last Wednesday, I was really very tired and I slept from 11 am and I was expecting I was gonna wake up at night already but sadly it didnt happen because in my dream I was at work. grrrr!

Once i was so tired i decided to take an afternoon nap. The phone rung, i jumped up and answered it, it was almost dark, the older neighbor lady called. I answered her and said i have to go i am late for work. It was night time not morning, called her back and apologized, explaining what had happened, I though i had slept all night and it was morning.

Oh well at least it seems that it was a false alarm for you. but when it happened to me it was the next morning I had not eaten or brushed my teeth it was really confusing.

That has happened to me quite a few times actually(although a couple of the times was not an accident ;D) The first time it happened, i was a little scared. I had thought that i had slept for a lot longer than just one day, and when i found out i just laughed.

Hahaha this happened to me one time... I stayed up really late and then when I finally fell asleep, I slept thru the entire day! It felt to strange waking up I thought it was a joke when I looked at the clock and saw that it was dark outside. I just remember saying... "Oh my god its 5pm!" :D
