Hi all,
On that poll I wrote this, but figured it should be by itself so maybe I can get some ideas from you nice folks.

I said I have cognitive decline in the afternoon. I have a hard problem to solve so maybe someone can help me.

I go to bed at night and wake up exactly two hours later for the bathroom. I go back to bed, and I am fully awake. It doesn't matter what time I try to got to bed this same thing happens. My body thinks I had my two hour nap...at night.

Then I lay there for awhile hoping to fall back to sleep, no go! So after an hour or so I get up and find something to do to make me go back to sleep, like paper work or reading.

I end up getting tired at around 6 am or 7am and go back to sleep until 2 pm or 3 pm. to get a perfect 8 hours, but the wrong 8 hours. It used to be bed at 1 pm, 2 am or 3 am and be okay, now it is later and later.

What happened? This could be without a nap in the day too. I just feel the day is for sleeping and at night is for being wide awake, alert and feeling fine.

When I get up at 2 pm or 3 pm I have cobwebs to clear, because my body wants to go back to sleep even more. So I put cognitive decline in the afternoon on this poll.

This totally ruins my day, my family plans, etc. Then with shopping at night I am getting very little daylight now on me. I don't know how to turn myself around.

Any and all suggestions would be helpful. Please..
