ever since i started working at freds i've gained a sleep disorder called hypersomnia. it's really bad these days. i'm feeling really tired when i wake up in the morning because i also have insomnia so it's hard for me to get home at whatever hour and go right to bed. my mom has hypersomnia so i know that it's just genetic too. she used to work nights and would come home and sleep right until she had to go to work again. i never saw her. now, she works during the day and comes home and can sleep until the next morning, or on the weekends she'll go to bed at 10pm and wake up the next day around 1pm, sometimes.
in my case, i don't get ENOUGH sleep so i'm always tired. i can be fully awake for a period of time, and then i get so tired that i can't even keep my eyes open. it physically hurts.
i don't know what to do.

well i know how you feel, i went through a phase somewhat like that and what the doc told me to do was to exercise, even if it was just a bit at first and...also when you finish showering, let some cold water out and let it pour on your head for a bit...breathe deep and have a balanced diet haha...also falling it love can keep you awake lol but that's worse i guess. lol anyway, hope my little word of advice helps you :) or...kick fred's ass lol whoever that is. jk
