Hello, we're sorry to hear about your circumstances. If you feel that anxiety and stress could be causing you not to sleep, it could be an option to talk with somebody who can help you improve your mental health, like a counsellor or psychologist. It would also be recommended to visit your GP for a medical check-up also, to rule out any underlying causes for your lack of sleep. Best of luck.

[@nrhasan2543]

Never try to fight with your anxiety just accept your feelings like...it's ok if you are nervous it's ok if you're fearing or anything just accept it. If possible talk to someone at that time about what you feel. Try to be focused n positive all the time. If you aren't sleeping it's okay you're also alike others don't think you're diseased. Always try to focus your mind on what you are doing at that time.also try not to talk to yourself or over thinking. Stay Blessed

I've had sleep problems my entire life. But within these past few years it's become more obvious that there is something ligitimitaly wrong with me. I can literally sleep for 2 days and still be exhausted the day I go back in for work. Even then I need to take some sort of nap. I fall asleep while I'm sitting down on the computer for 10min On some days. It literally hurts me sometimes how tired I am. It doesn't ever matter how much sleep. I don't have the energy to do anything when I get home or take my girlfriend out places. My entire body constantly feels drained. I feel some moments after I have just woken up where I feel great and energetic and happy. But then that all goes away within about an hour or less. It is so depressing. I wish I had some answers.

i am kind of like you on that like few years ago i started having trouble falling asleep at night even being on psych drugs of course extended release so while i am more tired during the day i am not even getting enough rest while i sleep i already have OSA. i haven't been able to find good cpap method hope newer options. i am sick of the added depression and missing out on good things and oh the headaches. i don't even drink a lot of coffee no energy drinks. i mostly drink G2's or water. at night i sometimes take a melatonin sometimes help me fall asleep faster but depends on how much actual rest and oxygen to brain i am getting. i had been on few sleep aids before but hallucinations are crazy and since i live alone no clue if had been sleepwalking which possible side effect like no thanks that could be dangerous. sometimes i have last second things i need to do so when i take melatonin well anytime i take it not sure i have 8hrs of sleep i have tried going bed earlier but i just lay there restles toss and turn my legs bother me. i am def due for a sleep study consult to set up a sleep study i gotta call this monday been so busy but to reschedule the appointment i had for dec 11 due to snowstorm i have to rely on others mainly my mom for rides. i actually have been disabled since i was 24. i am 37 now. i legit though have my mom witness and a friend this was noticed more then when it was my friend i started to wonder so end of march i went down to florida to visit my dad after 2 days long story ended up thank god my friend lived so close to spend rest of my trip at her place which was more peaceful. so day of when i was to head back to airport to go home to massachusetts, i was just chillin with my friend and her son i was tired but weird for few minues i must have like zoned out because i swear i had just been talking with her and then i hear her saying are you ok i was like uhm what i think so. she said i had been staring off in like a trance and she kept trying get my attention i asked her how long and she said a couple of minutes like usually would zone back. afterwords i was like that was weird told my mom she said could have just been circumstance i was in why i stayed rest of my trip at my friend's but then when i started falling asleep sitting up while talking to my mom and her shaking me awake which still dozed right back off and i tell you i swear i could hear her talking. so freaky. i do need a sleep schedule but i need better therapy for my mental health and maybe some med tweaking still need find a psych had one he left and place i went to just up and closed down not long after. and i need cpap therapy if possible probably. i think my migraines would be less occurance. speaking of headaches ugh it's my med time anyway. also doesn't seem to matter when i take my meds on getting to sleep for bedtime.

[@Mixter81]

I have same thing. I read there is a molecule discovered in the spine thats common with us hypersomniacs in that acts on GABA. This "sleep euphoria" also happens when I wake up or try to sleep and is the reason I sleep/again so much, it is like a drug but the consequences are wrecked day/night rhythm and problems attending meetings, school and work, etc. Also the strange thing is that coffee makes me so sleepy. This is not normal. 3pm fatigue is a BIG problem for me if I wake up at 9am. I can sleep between 10 to 20 hours. I am on disability, but now I try to study to become something, but I pray to God that I will do it. There is no treatment other than using heavy stimulants, even Modafinil doesn't work.

The naps last about 15 minutes, but I wake up feeling extremely sleepy. Yesterday I decided to fight my sleep. It gave me the worst headache I ever had, and a nosebleed last night that I slept through. I can only stay awake long enough to get 1 or 2 things done. I was playing the piano for 4 to 8 hours a day. Now I'm too sleepy to do what I enjoy the most. If I get depressed, then it will be from sleeping too much. I'm already yawning again.

Her sleep disorder is called hypersomnia which is a "cousin" to narcolepsy... Or a form of it... Her brain has trouble waking and falling to sleep or the transition... Also they tend to be.programmed for being awake at night cause the brain falls asleep with daylight... A reaction to the sun...very strange, she also has a slight sun allergy... Really strange stuff.... But it caused disruption in her life, being late for work, school or absences...

I’ve been trying to seek help for years now. Absolutely miserable process along the way. Took an entire year to get sleep study and narcolepsy studies done to have them ruled out. I got a Positive diagnosis of hypersomnia over a year ago and my doctor said there’s nothing that could be done other than take stimulants from a psychiatrist. He told me “just check your mirrors while driving and try to stay awake.” I was defeated and gave up. Eventually out of desperation I saw the psych iatrist who was not a specialist. Prescribed me pills in less than 10 minutes, only worked for 1 day before returning back to excessive sleepiness. When I told the Psychiatrist she gave up and said I need to find a specialist. I’m getting bounced around like a ping pong ball, nobody seems to know how to help me.

Watching videos keeps your brain active and sometimes that's also a reason for not being able to sleep. I'd suggest listening to calm music, or vibrations, meditation or a voice that you can fall asleep to, or read something before going to bed. Breathing exercises help a lot to fall asleep. The slower your breath becomes it will signals the brain to fall into a sleep state. Sometimes changing the furniture in your room, or your bed can help a lot as well. Don't drink a lot before going to sleep because you'll need to go to the toilet. Keep a bottle of water next to your bed though. They say the best time to sleep is usually around 9-10. I wouldn't suggest an alarm because the sudden disrupt of waking up by an alarm can cause even more tiredness since we usually have an automatic alarm in our brain. But if you do need to wake up at a certain time maybe a calmer sound for an alarm will help, or you can ask someone to wake you up.

My roommate is 74 he is bi-polar. He sleeps 16+ hours every day. He does not seem depressed. He cannot control his sleeping, even during the day. When he is awake he is not very active but he is capable of doing normal activities. He does not sleep particularly well, he gets up to use the bathroom every 3 or 4 hours. His hips ache, I assume from sleeping so much. I feel that if he was able to stay up during the day he would sleep better at night. His doctors have no idea what is going on. His overall health is not bad, blood tests and such are relatively normal. He sees a psychiatrist occasionally and he says he does not think the sleeping is psychological. His general practitioner seems to have no clue what is going on. He retired at 60 and quickly began to sleep for very long stretches so this has been going on for years. I believe this is starting to affect his mental functioning somewhat as well as his physical health. Do you have any suggestions as to what might be going on?

I used to sleep a lot but things are getting out of hands during this lockdown. I slept at 4 am woke up at 11 am then again slept at 3 pm and woke up at 9:30 pm and this irregualr sleep pattern is getting out of hands, whenever i wake up from these long naps I hve no energy to do any work I'm still tired, it's so bad I'm behind a lot of schoolwork it's drastically affecting my grades and not being able to do anything just makes me feel so useless and pathetic

I almost slept 36 hrs straight the other day.. I woke up once or twice to eat but I just kept sleeping

I sleep 15 hours a day and work 8 I need help 😭

[@danielthalion]

They are spraying the skys with heavy metals like barium Alluminum and lithium. Its results in many people are a feeling of lethargy and uselessness. This is becoming more and more normal I see it in the children more so than ever. Kids usually are full of energy you cant slow them down, but recently the kids are always tired and want to stay home. It's crazy

[@ammullen8301]

I was diagnosed with Idiopathic Hypersomnia in 2017, after a lifetime of complaining to various doctors who told me nothing was wrong. I sleep approximately 10 - 12 each night, and go to bed between 6pm - 8pm every night. If I don't get a minimum of a 2 hour nap each day, I'm unable to function. My doctors won't prescribe any medication besides Vyvance, which just made my sleepiness worse. So I have to work part-time, limit my physical activity, and disappoint my kids daily because I'm so tired. It's worsened as I've aged, especially after age 30, and again after age 40.

This made me feel sleepy

[@rizzar]

I stay sleeping from the night, right now it's 4:30 and I just woke up. I slept easily 14-15 hours. I used to have "a clock" telling me when I get up, but now I don't? I don't know, but I keep sleeping so much and I hate it.

[@SarahFashaTV]

I have been diagnosed with idiopathic hypersomnia almost a decade ago. I was told there is no cure. Maybe bc mine is idiopathic. I take stimulants to help, it does, but I’m pretty immune to them now. So is there a way to reverse idiopathic hypersomnia??

[@TopDoctorsUK]

Hi Sarah! We aren't able to provide medical advice in the comments because those of us who monitor the KZbin comments are from the marketing department. If you believe your current treatment isn't working, it's best to talk to your doctor or a neurologist to consider what possible treatments are available. Take care! The TD team.

I move and talk while sleeping.. I wake up flailing my arms.. kicking my legs.. doing the the "swiping" on a cell phone (I'm not actually holding) .. laughing.. crying.. I'm always exhausted.. like .. very unnatural exhaustion

[@justinwalker2460]

I think that most of you are going to sleep at the wrong time. Instead of staying up late at night get in the bed early. Regulate your circadian clock with melatonin. Create a sleep pattern and your long sleep should shorten drastically. The problem is that most of you screwed up your clock by having unhealthy sleeping habits and always staying up late. There is nothing wrong with you. Get in the in the evening not at night.

[@TwoPyramid]

Perhaps. But there are also people who are naturally morning persons and are high energy during the day which has nothing to do with self discipline nor conscious choices they made about when to go to bed. On the other hand, I worked as a late night security job and it was absolutely effortless and enjoyable for me to work those hours, while the same schedule could be very difficult for a 9 to 5 person to adjust to.

[@TwoPyramid]

I am going to try your suggestion, btw. It can't hurt to try.

[@jennetteraspatello8558]

Pretty sure most of us have tried this obvious solution- it’s bigger then that. Not a willpower type thing.

[@uoohoo99]

I sleep anywhere from 16-22 hours a day and still sleepy. This has been going on for 15 years. NOT ONE DOCTOR has suggested a sleep study. They just say I'm depressed and give me meds, ie antidepressants, ritalin & provigil to keep me up and I drink 5 hr energy whenever I am awake. But I can still sleep through it all. My life is worthless. 😴😪

[@moonrockinmynose5689]

What specialist is most likely to deal with hypersomnia? Psychiatrist or neurologist? No matter how much sleep I get, I can fall asleep during the daytime at any moment and in any place possible. It affects my studies and work negatively.

[@TopDoctorsUK]

Hi! Sometimes it's a combination of the two, but to generalise, it will be a neurologist who will help with hypersomnia. We hope that your sleep pattern is able to improve so that your work and studies are more positive. Take care! The TD team.

[@catarina9536]

I do not fall asleep in social situations. I just sleep 12 or 14 hours per day. I always took a lot of time to fall asleep, 3 or 4 hours, so I naturally grew desinterested to go to bed early (it is a pain to try to sleep and can not fall asleep staring into the dark for 3 or 4 hours). I am sleeping 12 or 14 hours per day for 2 weeks or 1 month consecutively is this really bad for the brain?

My mother is 82 ,up until a year /18 months ago she would be up between 8-9 am ,but She is now sleeping through to the afternoon,something she has never done before. She started to have memory problems around the same time and we have yet to get a diagnosis of Alzheimer's etc ,a CT scan has detected small blood vessel disease and some brain .atrophy . Could this possibly be the cause?The disease destroying the internal clock in the brain . Could it be heart problems

I sleep for 11/12 hours when I'm not going to school,and feel tired during the day and take a 5 hour long nap and STILL feel tired after that. This affects me so much and I'm confused on what to do with my life at this point

[@TopDoctorsUK]

Hi yagirl nextdoor, It's very common to sleep for 11/12 hours on the weekends if you're of a school age, especially if you don't get enough sleep during the week. As for napping, it's entirely possible to nap for too long! Usually napping for less than an hour is recommended, because if you are a sleep for a few hours you'll go into a deep sleep then wake up feeling very groggy. Of course, if you're consistently getting more sleep than average through the week and you're still feeling tired, it's worth seeing your GP and family doctor about it. Best wishes, The Top Doctors Team

I'm 13 and i don't know if i have hypersomnia because I don't want to sleep but still I can sleep anytime, anywhere. Mostly in the afternoon. Even when I'm at school, i fell asleep during class. Even when I'm at home, i distract myself but still i fall asleep. And also, whenever i unintentionally fell asleep on weekdays, I will instantly wake up between 5 and 6 am which I find weird because like i do sleep late sometimes but i still wake up early

i also forgot to mention that part of reason i think i could/ might have trouble sleeping which i have no cure or treatment for is Interstitial cystitis aka painful bladder syndrome though pain can be managed it's the constant need to urinate all day and few times at night i can't stop. it's even hard to stay hydrated like not too hydrated but just enough. lot of times i don't get reccommended fluid intake and i still have to run to the toilet. i hate road trips because of it got diagnosis through a surgery back in 2011. i always have make sure wherever i go has a working bathroom. holding urine too long puts me high risk of urinary tract infections. i do have overactive bladder too but had a horrid reaction to medication for that i almost ended up hosptialized for a severe anger outburst episode which well told there was risk for overactive bladder meds interacting with psych meds.
