Maybe it's anxiety over sleeping. I know I do the same thing. I'm so worried that I'm not going to get a good night's rest that I worry about it which makes it hard for me to get the sleep I need. I take anti-anxiety pills to help but it's really a trap because you end up getting tolerant to the medication and then it does no good unless you up the dose. It's a complete vicous cycle. the more you worry about your sleep the more you wake up in the night. Maybe try deep breathing or something that is relaxing. Good luck!
