It's like I suddenly feel like I need to sleep and bam I'm sleeping. It's starting to bother me. Sometimes I am in the middle of something and next thing I know I am asleep. Sometimes it is only for a few minutes but other times it for an hour or so. I have started to keep track of it to see if there is a connection with when and why it happens. It's weird.

in my location someone suddenly wanting to sleep all the time is a symptom of a physical health problem (example anemia, epilepsy, blood pressure problems, dietary problems, )
that said there are sleep disorders where a person does what you posted called narcolepsy and Hypersomnolence disorders.
suggestion contact your treatment providers. they will be able to do some blood work and other tests that will tell you whether you have a physical health problems, a sleep disorder or other reasons behind your suddenly needing to sleep so much.
