Thanks for the responses.
I'm not on any meds, so that's not the problem. I do take some otc sleep meds when I don't have to be up a certain time because I know I am really sleep deprived.
I like the thought about the alarm clock conditioning - I'll experiment with that.
I had one random week of sleep since posting this. I slept 10-15 hours each night. However, now I'm back to my new normal.
I think that sleep deprivation is the main issue - sleep has been a major issue for me throughout this whole ordeal. It's like my body is tired, but my brain doesn't realize it.
Going back to the doctor for this would be a last, last resort - I'm pretty sure I never want to visit another doctor again in my entire life! (Sorry for some personal venting right there...)
