Hello, I am 18 and am currently in high school. This is my problem. I work about three days a week and i get home around 10:30. I seem to get to sleep around the same time every night, about 11:30. Nights that I dont work, I might get tired alittle earlier and get to bed around 10:30. When I get in bed, I fall asleep very easily and am not awake for more than about 10 minutes. Now in the morning, I have my alarm clock set to 6:00am because thats when i would like to wake up seeing as how Im supposed to be out the door at 7:00am for school. When my alarm goes off at 6:00am I usually wake up and turn it off but it seems like I dont even have a choice of whether to get up or not even if i wanted to force myself because I feel like i fall asleep right away before I can even decide. Then I guess my alarm goes off 2 or 3 more times which I unitentionally hit the snooze button without even waking up. My mom comes up all of those times and says that i tell her that im awake and eveythign but i have no memory of those 1 or 3 times each morning. Finally at about 6:45am I feel like I actually wake up enough to decide weather to get up or to sleep longer and I usually get right out of bed because I know that i will fall asleep again. This happens all the time regarless of whether I go to bed early or not. Also when i get to bed really early, lets say 9:30pm or 9:45pm, I am miserable in the morning and just feel super tired. Whats my problem!?! Also, any suggestions?
