Yes I do have sleeping issues you are not alone buddy and keep your head up!!!!

Yes..I have this same problem. I'm a senior in highschool and I really, really struggle with this problem. I don't want to get up in the morning and face another day either. One the weekends i sleep 14+ hours straight. You're definitely not alone. I also have little to no motivation.

I also have sleep issues. I am up so far into the night most nights because of racing thoughts. I mentally abuse/try to excuse myself for every aspect of myself nearly every night. I do get up in the a.m. because I have children who depend on me, which is a blessing as I'd no doubt sleep all day if not. You are not alone! Although if you are young a big part of it may simply be that you physically need a lot of sleep, so don't berate yourself unnecessarily for being those hours of sleep. But I do hope you can find something that makes you want to be awake.

Since I was 15 I've had sleeping problems, from insomnia to oversleeping. I'm a night owl so I love staying up till about 6am and would usually wake up the next day at about 4/ 5pm, now I go to bed at 6am and wake up at noon, which I don't know why but what always works for me is getting into a routine, making myself go to bed at 1am and setting an alarm, well multiple alarms which annoy to the point where I have to get up.
I also find it hard to motivate myself, just because my sleeps back in check doesn't mean I have anything to do with the rest of the day.

Do you know what is causing our depression. I know it can be overwhelming but maybe there are some small steps you can take even if its seeing each day that you are alive as a new day. One day at a time, try to connect with others who will encourage and mentor you. Think about positive things and seek medical advice for fatigue. Believe in yourself that you have power to overcome. Hope for a better future.

I had a very intense session with my therapist today. There is a lot going on emotionally, which could be one of the reasons my sleep pattern is so off. Thank you all for sharing your issues and giving comfort to me. It's so nice having this site to get the support and have people understand your problems!

Hi, i find myself not wanting to sleep because I fear what happens when I'm asleep. I have frequent sleep paralysis attacts and will wake up with a fealing of complete terror

Forever_Forgoten, I can relate. I have so many nightmares that when I wake up I'm in a panic attack. It must be really scary for you to paralyzed when you wake up. I hope you will have a good nights rest tonight.
