To Sleep More 잠을 더 자는 것
Recently I'm really tired. I need to sleep more than before. But even if I sleep more, I'm still tired I think. What should I do?
요즘 전 정말 피곤해요. 전보다 더 많은 잠이 필요해요. 하지만 제가 피곤해서 잠을 더 잘지라도 전 여전히 피곤할 것 같아요. 제가 어떻게 해야 할까요?

Recently I have been really tired. I need sleep more than before. But even if I sleep more when I feel tired, Im still tired I think. What should I do?

1. Recently is used with present perfect, not present tense. Recently means that it started in the recent past, and has continued.
2. You normally will use "before" with an object, not on its own. With "before": an event happened, and after "the event" something changed. So if we do not know what the "event" is, we are confused if we read "before".
3. "when" is better than "if" in this context, because "if" has the nuance that you have not tried to sleep more.
4. Being tired is not something you "think" about. You just are tired or you are not tired.
Example:
1. I constantly feel like I need more sleep, but even when I sleep more when I feel tired, Im still tired. (This sentence is bloated)
2. I need more sleep than I used to, But even when I sleep more, I'm still tired.
3. I feel like I am not getting enough sleep, but I feel tired even when I do.
