Yes, it might be. However, very important to take it into consideration with a whole constellation of symptoms. This includes difficulty enjoying life to the fullest, energy level, changes in appetite, etc. So, very important to not solely isolate this symptom. It’s a great question. Excellent idea to pursue this with your mental health provider. Ideally, a psychiatrist.

Oversleeping can be a symptom of depression or several other medical problems. You may need a complete medical work-up to role out other causes.
