Sounds like you have a sleep disorder. There are 87 of them and quite a few that could cause these symptoms. You should make an appointment to see a sleep specialist and in the meantime you may want to start a sleep diary to take with you noting when you go to bed, when you get up, how many times you wake during the night and how long they last. Include naps etc. Also take one of the sleep test on SleepNet's Sleep Links page and take the results with you when you go in for your consult.
