Do I have a sleeping disorder???

Question

It's 3:09 am and I am still not tired. I don't like to sleep bc I find it unproductive and night time is the only time I feel happy. Am I weird? Or is this normal? Also can anyone tell me how to go to sleep fast? I am asking this bc it is a real problem for me, I think I have a sleeping disorder. I swam laps for 5 hours straight today and when I got home I was so tired that I went to bed. But I woke up 1 hr later and can't go to to sleep again. What is my problem??

What should I do to fix it?

Answer 1

Maybe your inability to sleep is a symptom of a different psychological disorder.  Try to realize what you're thinking about when you try to go to sleep.  why can't you sleep?  Is your mind racing, do you always wake up right as you're dozing off?  If you really want to understand why you can't sleep, you need to analyze the whole situation.
