Takes me 3-hours to fall asleep!!

Posted by Ken Aomori on December 20, 2002 at 22:40:30:

Can anyone help?

I try to go to sleep around 11pm. However, I find that I may lie in bed for several hours. I'm noticing that I don't really fall asleep until about 2:45pm - 3:30pm. I then wake up around 8:00am. I then lay in bed for a short while and then fall asleep until about 10:00am. It is during this last 2-hours, I feel like I get really good rest. I don't understand this phenomenom. It happens very regularly. Has anyone else seen or experienced this?

Also - I have taken all kinds of sleeping pills, but they don't seem to kick-in until several hours after I take them. I try not to take these pills regularly; because I don't want to become addicted to them.

Has anyone experienced this syndrome or know of anyone who has? I sure would like to know.

Ken
