I have the worse sleep patter. Some days I go to bed around 11 or at night and sleep till 3 pm the next day.

Sometimes I dont sleep at all maybe 2 4 hours

Then I sometimes go to bed at 7pm and wake up 12noon

I cant stand it, I wish i can sleep a normal 10 hours and wake up feeling great but no i always wake up feeling crappy.

Hi 4ev,

I can't seem to tackle this sleep problem. I made a commitment to my therapist to go to sleep @ 12 am & wake up @ 8am ~ every night to combat my issues w/sleep. Take my night meds around 10pm.

I'm way behind in my classes & like to study late at night, so I need to try & train myself to get focused early in the day. I'm on Strattera for my ADHD but don't think it works well for me - I think I need the real stuff.

A sleep study would be great, but my insurance doesn't cover it. For know I'll have to keep trying too change my behaviors around sleep. That includes diet & exercise as well.

Good Luck,

Count me in on the crazy sleep patterns. For me, it's like I just sleep when I can. If I try to go to bed when I'm not tired, I just lay there tossing and turning with my brain running wild. It can last for hours. I've tried a "normal" sleep schedule, listening to music, meditation, a "night routine", medications, herbs/supplements, and on and on. I've been this way since a child. I'm pretty much losing hope that I'll ever sleep normally. :)

I'm the same way as you kite. I sleep only when I can, and it's been like this since I was a child too. It's hard to keep a schedule like this.
