I recognze your symptoms very well. I have narcolepsy. Even with the sleep medication I take, I still find it impossible to stay asleep for more than a couple of hours at a time.
Only a complete sleep study can determine if and what particular sleep disorder you have.
It is very frustrating to wake up to start your day when you've been in and out of bed all night. In my case, it is time to change my sleep medication, which I have to do every few years. When I change from one to another, for a while, I'll sleep 4-6 hours at a time, which feels really strange. Then , eventually, I guess I build up a resistence to the new med and then I'm back to the two hour thing. Good Luck.
