Why do I feel so sleepy in the evening but in the night I'm wide awake?
It doesn't make any sense. At around 3:30-7:00 in the afternoon, I feel so sleepy and I just wanna go to bed... but I can't because I need to wake up for dinner. If I feel sleepy from 3-7 p.m, I'm wide awake at 9 pm and I can't fall asleep. This is really affecting my school. I'm wide awake at night time and I can't even fall asleep, so I end up sleeping at like...1:00 in the morning and then I need to wake up for school at 7 a.m. How do I make my system feel tired at night instead of the afternoon?
Why am I tired in the day but wide awake at night?
Well, I found out the question I had for you, by looking at your profile…You are 16…Teenagers commonly deal with this, because of body chemistry. It's funny, because I've answered a lot of melatonin questions lately, and this is another melatonin related question.Everyone produces melatonin. It is their chemical responsible for telling us when it's time to go to sleep. Not everyone produces enough though, and that causes sleeping issues. The elderly, especially, have issues, since as you age, you produce less and less, which explains why grandparents go to bed late (or early), but are always waking up so early. Hahaha!Teenagers, however, go through a period where the melatonin production is a bit out of whack. I'm sure it's to do with puberty and whatnot, but either way, it isn't in a properly set structure during this time of people's lives. This causes teens to not be tired a lot later into the evening, when it finally starts telling you it's time to sleep, which makes you more tired in the mornings, having to get up early for school. Some other countries get this, and their school day starts later in the morning, and a lot of U.S. cities and states are realizing this too, and are starting to change school times to start later, around 9:00/9:30am, instead of 7:00/7:30am.Ultimately, it's not your fault. You've done nothing too cause this, and it's completely “normal”, for teenagers to not be tired at a typically normal hour of the evening, as adults do, and of course be tired having to still wake up at a typical early morning hour to start your day.Give it another year or two, and you should have a fairly balanced melatonin cycle. If after a couple years, you still have issues, you might want to consult a sleep specialist, to determine if you have a sleep disorder, or a low melatonin production, but until then, this is just part of growing up a human. ;-P
Can you be asleep and awake at the same time?
Yes, it is possible, but not literally possible. It’s much like being in a subconscious state as how a Psychiatrist would take the person to a subconscious state, where the doctor would be speaking with the inner-self of the person, rather than the person. In psychology, the subconscious is the part of consciousness that is not currently in focal awareness. This is where, it would be literally like the person’s mind be would operating or existing outside of consciousness, where there is no possibility that the person may lie about any facts he/she says. Its much like mesmerism.Just as the quote “The conscious mind determines the actions, the unconscious mind determines the reactions; and the reactions are just as important as the actions” by Stanley Jones.In this State, the person’s conscious mind would be asleep and the subconscious mind would be awake, which like partially awake and asleep or like the one you have asked in your question.
Wide awake at night but tired in morning..why?
I believe Ya! Just called you a baby ._. - You might be becoming a insomniac: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insomnia if this happens for months on ends, see your doctor he/she might be able to give you something to help other ways, if you don't want to go to the doctor, here are some things that might help: -drink sleepy time tea Or take melatonin(sp)(its a natural sleeping pill you can find anywhere) -Have your room only as a sleeping area, so don't play games there, don't surf the internet there, ect -Try meditating, it relaxes your body and evens your breathing, it also clears your mind. - You can also role play in your head, it gets your mind off not being able to sleep and it might help. - Don't eat two to three hours before bed. - read a book a little bit before bed or go on the computer for a little while, this always helps me - listen to music you like before sleeping, or just listen to a cd of nature sounds, it helps you relax and helps you unwind from your day ^^ I hope I helped! I wish you the best of luck for you! : ) ~ Koko

I just want to know what is it that keeps me up and stuff and how to fix it because i want to get on a better sleeping schedule.
Why do I always wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning wide awake?
You have to reset your internal body biological clock to go to bed early and wake up early at that scheduled time. Another reason for disrupted sleep might be that you are worried about something. If you wake up during the night, do not look at the clock. Try the following techniques for a quality sleep : leaving you feeling refreshed and alert the following day. Tips for getting back to sleep -Try visualization. Focus all your attention on your toes or visualize walking down an endless stairwell. Thinking about repetitive or mindless things will help your brain to shut down and adjust to sleep. -Get out of bed if unable to sleep. Don’t lie in bed awake. Go into another room and do something relaxing until you feel sleepy. - Worrying about falling asleep actually keeps many people awake. -Don't do anything stimulating. Don't read anything job-related or watch a stimulating TV program (commercials and news shows tend to be alerting). -Don't expose yourself to bright light. The light gives cues to your brain that it is time to wake up. -Get up and eat some turkey. Turkey contains tryptophan, a major building block for making serotonin, a neurotransmitter, which sends messages between nerve cells and causes feelings of sleepiness. Note that L-tryptophan doesn't act on the brain unless you eat it on an empty stomach with no protein present, so keep some turkey in the refrigerator for 3am. -Consider changing your bedtime. If you are experiencing sleeplessness or insomnia consistently, think about going to bed later so that the time you spend in bed is spent sleeping. If you are only getting five hours of sleep at night, figure out what time you need to get up and subtract five hours (for example, if you want to get up at 6:00 am, go to bed at 1:00 am). This may seem counterproductive and, at first, you may be depriving yourself of some sleep, but it can help train your body to sleep consistently while in bed. When you are spending all of your time in bed sleeping, you can gradually sleep more, by adding 15 minutes at a time.
How come you can be falling asleep watching TV, then wide awake when you go to bed five minutes later?
When you watch TV, your mind/ attention is occupied. When you are lying in bed going to sleep, there’s nothing your mind is purposefully engaged with, concentrating on, nothing to attach to, which is one reason meditation is so powerful at calming the mind.
