Hi again,

I've posted information to you several times; found articles/links and shared them with you...but you've never acknowledged one of my posts, so I'm not sure if I should even write to you? If I said anything to offend you, please let me know.

I have the same problem. I know what you mean being tired and unable to sleep. It was the abolsulte worst with anxiety--so horribly tired but unable to sleep...even when I don't have strong anxeity, I feel that way though.

I recently discovered Melatonin-take 2 mg at night. It helps. My 'cycle' is all screwed up too. Under normal circumstances when I'm not all messed up from medications, I sleep 8 to 10 hours if I don't set an alarm. My body also seems to always want to revert to an approx. 10 am wake time/2 am go to sleep time, if I'm not working or doing anything highly structured.

I've always felt that my body clock doesn't match the rest of the worlds. Since I could remember.

I've had jobs where I had to get up at 3 am. No matter how much sleep I've gotten the night/day before, I felt miserable. Always.

Would be great if someone knew of research in this area. I did come across something, maybe I already posted it, about melantonin deficiencies. All I remember at the moment is that you cannot produce melatonin while in the light. Looking at computers late at night can affect your bodies production (but wouldn't you just make the mealatonin when you shut the light out??). Wish I knew where that article was right now.
