Hi, since I was a child, I’ve had a problem with waking up in the morning. Eight hours of sleeping are never enough to me. Do I have a sleeping disorder?

I know what you mean, I have the same problem. Alarm clock, phone ringing and stereo volume max can’t wake me up in the morning. I don’t know how I still have my job. I’ve been late so many times, but it’s not because I’m irresponsible. It’s only because I have a problem that I can’t control. I sleep eight hours at night minimum, but it doesn’t seam enough. I think it could be connected with my anxiety. I went to specialist, and told her what I think. She agreed that it is possible that I can’t wake up in the morning due to my anxiety, and she prescribed me Zoloft. It has been a week since I started taking it, and I’m still waiting for it to work. If it doesn’t help me wake up in the morning, I will surely lose my job.

It sounds to me like you may have a serious sleep disorder, and it would be a good idea to talk to a doctor about it because it doesn't sound like it's going to get better, so please see a doctor or a sleep clinic about your issue so that you can get help for it as soon as possible because I don't think it would be fun to live that way.

Please let us know how this turns out for you.
