Can anyone tell me why i cant sleep at night but sleeps in day time?

Question

me

Answer 1

Try not sleeping at the daytime...everytime i take a nap in the afternoon i have trouble sleeping at night. When i dont take a nap in the day, it is easy for me to fall asleep, unless i got use to my previous sleeping schedule. Maybe you are use to your schedule or soemthing, try not sleeping and be tired, then once its night time youll be very tired and try sleeping at night.

Answer 2

I wouldn't be too worried about this. It's totally normal to be scared of something. Why not try getting a tv and falling asleep to a movie that has nothing to do with things that scare you. Disney movies are really good for that. It will get your mind off things that creep in the night and let you get a good nights sleep. Or try sleeping with the light on. Maybe seeing everything around you will help convince yourself subconsciously that there is nothing there but you.

Answer 3

The first answer is probably the nearest the mark. You're not awake at night because you slept in the day but the other way round. You're tired in the day because you got no sleep at night. It may be worth trying not to nap and see if it makes a difference, but you may need a little help to get back to a good patten.

Answer 4

You've got your days and nights mixed up. It will take about a week of real discipline to set them straight. For a full seven days, you need to force yourself to get out of bed early in the morning and stay awake until at least 10 o'clock in the evening. Then, you need to force yourself to stay in bed from that time until early the next morning. Eventually, you will sleep during the night. Maybe it will take two weeks. You have the same problem as people who get jet lag, only it is from habit, not travel.

This is assuming you don't currently have trouble sleeping during the day. If you are having trouble sleeping at night AND during the day, you might have a sleep disorder.

Answer 5

I have a two word anwser for your problem......SLEEP CLINIC! They help, if you have insurance check into one. Like someone else answered, your internal clock is all jacked up. However, you didn't include info about your job...do you work swing shift or graveyard? Or have you been working those shifts? What about dope, alcohol, prescribed meds? They all play a part in your sleeping habits. Other than that...whats on your mind? Seek professional help. Good luck and sweet dreams!

Answer 6

It comes with old age. Keep a list of good things to do in the middle of the night. Listening to Coast to Coast (Art Bell, George Nori, etc.) on radio. So much can be learned on this radio progam you can accomplish more than you would if you slept it away so make use of it.

Answer 7

Your internal time clock is off schedule. What I do to correct that is stay up a whole day, which is by no means safe or healthy, and then, in my exhaustion, fall asleep at the correct time.

Answer 8

try to regulate your sleeping paterns and your body will get it...if you have traveled to a different country or state and the time zone is different you may be jet lagged...try going to bed and waking up about as close to the same time as possible...(of course whatever time you would like to get up...not the time your body gets up)....

Answer 9

u might be lazy. train yourself to sleep at the right time and force yourself to stay awake when you should be awake! ALL THE BEST

Answer 10

You work third shift and your boss gets pissed when you sleep at work, I know mine does.
