Lol yea cheers that's true that I have to learn unfortunately :D

Hello there,
I'm the sameway I only get around 4 hours of sleep a night. I go to sleep around 2 and get up at 6. my mother freaks out all the time because I never sleep but I feel the same if I go to bed at 9 and get up at 6. everyone tells me its my meds but I just think it's a teen thing.

:) devan:)

Cheers at least I know someone else who's a teen who gets it

Look you rda is going through a hard time. When he says those mean and evil thing te your mother she needs to tell him "ok look you dont like my daughter and im sure she dosn't like you so either back off or be nice" And make sure you tell her what he does to you. Tell your mom if she loves you tell her to get a new boy friend or you will get him ARESTED. I hope you try to do this thing it surely worked for me. GOOD LUCK!!

Do you take any meds. Sometimes they effect sleep patterns (such as Ritalin, it can cause a person to calm down or become a hyper insomniac.. LOL). If not, you might have a high metabolism - that can do it to.
If there is no real reason - your lucky. Don't force yourself to sleep. That will only force the part of your brain that controls your wake cycle to slow or shut down and you will become constantly tired. I did this, now I have to do wake exercises every morning like make myself laugh with my groggy ha ha ha until I'm literally cracking myself up in order to start my day. If I don't, I'll be tired all day and could sleep all day and night - This all came from a therapist - your brain knows how much rest your body needs. This is the reason you oversleep after waking then making yourself go back to sleep - you in simpler terms, turned off the part of the brain that releases the chemicals that wake you up and keep you awake throughout the day.
Be young - have fun - enjoy your energy!!
