      This has ruined and is ruining my life. I am up for three days. I would not describe this as insomnia in as my experience does not reflect the word as it is normally used. After three days, i crash. By this I mean, I become completely disfubctional. I bump into walls, stagger, see double. Then I lie down and fall asleep I sleep for up to 24 hours and I may stay in bed waking and sleeping for another 12 hours. When I am able to get up, I feel terrible. I think if a normal person woke to this feeling or began to feel it anytime, they would go to the hospital. i stay ill for abuot 24 hours and can do very little. After this period and over the next period of about 8-12 hours, I start to feel better. Then I get up to speed and I feel good for around 48 hours, and the cycle begins again.

At the current time, do you have an earliest possible bedtime or latest possible out of bed time?
