Why Do I have Such Trouble Sleeping?

Question

Ever since I was a little girl I can remember that I could not sleep at night. Yes I am scared of the dark, or rather, the unknown and sometimes it keeps me up, but it's not a common problem, mostly after a scary movie. Ive noticed that no matter how much sleep I get, once it starts to get dark outside I am immediately wide awake. Even if I get 3 hours of sleep and am tired all day, once the sun goes down I suddenly want to get up and be out and do things and no matter how much I try, I can not sleep. I have noticed that Tylenol PM helps me sleep but my father stopped buying it because he doesn't want me to use it to get to sleep and I can understand that. But it did not help every time. This sleep problem has not interfered with my life too much except for when I am sleeping over someones house or whenever someone wants to sleep at night, I am wide awake. I am not sure if this is insomnia and there isnt anything that I can see that would be keeping me up. I do, however, need to have the fan on and the tv on when I sleep. The fan for noise and to keep me cool, even in the winter and the tv for noise and some light. Do you know what could be wrong?
