Sleepiness issues. I DO sleep at night, but dream almost instantly and I’m told that is NOT good. I can dream in a short nap, even when just nodding in a class or something, I get into a dream state, at times, get confused.
I can’t go to sleep early most nights as the brain won’t shut down, so I must exhaust myself, or bore myself so I can go to bed.
Once in bed, I usually, but not always, am asleep in say 10 minutes or so. At times, it’s 30-45 minutes, but not too often.
I nod off at my desk, I have an uncontrollable urge (LITERALLY) to nap on weekends to the point I MUST lay in a chair. And that’s usually within a couple hours of getting up in the AM!
