Almost anything can cause this from stress, to depression. I would make an appointment with your doctor to have an evaluation on this. Give him/her all your symptoms on how you have been feeling, and the fact the you are up every morning at 5. They will help you to work with it or get you what you need to take.

Melatonin is the all-natural nightcap. It's secreted by the pineal gland, a pea-size structure at the center of the brain, as our eyes register the fall of darkness.
"At night melatonin is produced to help our bodies regulate our sleep-wake cycles. The amount of it produced by our body seems to lessen as we get older. Scientists believe this may be why young people have less problem sleeping than older people.
"Studies suggest that... supplements can hasten sleep and ease jet lag, without the hazards or side effects of prescription sleeping pills."
It may have many other uses and has been reported to make people feel better, strengthen the immune system, and reduce free radicals in the body. Current research is underway to determine it's effect as an anti-oxidant, immno-modulator in cancer, delayed sleep-phase disorders, and jet lag. Tests are still under way so there is much to still be learned about it and its effects on the human body. Travelers and people suffering from mild sleep disorders.
According to the article, a typical comment from discussion groups on the Internet is, "'Folks, I've tried it and it's great. It has ...restored my sleep cycle, given me lots of energy.'" (6 Nov. 1995, p. 60-63)

Maybe you should go to your doctor and get some mild sleeping pills so that you can get your sleep schedule corrected. The sleeping pill thing wouldn't have to be real long, about a week usually.

Hmmm, sounds like you may have a lot on your mind and maybe thats why you cannot sleep. Ever try reading to you fall asleep or keeping a notebook near your bed so you can write down whatever is on your mind until you can fall asleep?

this sounds like you need to consult your physician. He or she can prescribe you ambient or lunesta or something. Are you depressed? Depression can cause insomnia
