it never acutally caught up, I never felt rested. But what I realized is that was just a symptom, the real disorder is that my natural clock isn't 24 hours, but something like 28+ which means my body wants to be awake for like 20 hours then sleep eight, which throws so much off.

But neither of those are what cause the HORRIBLE problems where I can't fall asleep when I'm tired. To that, the other year I learned about Exploding Head Syndrome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_head_syndrome … and it was like my life finally made sense.
