I sleep an average of 4-6 hours a night during the week, longer at weekends. I could probably sleep more during the week but I can function on less. I've heard that 4% of the population can function on that, so I always figured I was in the 4%.
When you have three teenagers, you can easily function on Zombie mode.

For myself, going to the chiropractor seems to help tremendously. When I’m not feeling good, and I’m always tired, it means I need to go. The worst thing is, is that when I am tired, it seems I stay up later, I think because I’m going to be tired the next day anyway. I also have more trouble getting to sleep then (when I want to) I think it’s a nerve thing in my upper back, and neck.

Well I found out that I have a pinched nerve in my neck, so that's attributing to my not sleeping well. I'm hoping the therapy I'm getting will help with that. If not - I think the next step is surgery.

I went to a doctor, and told the, that the Chiro helped, hoping that maybe they would do some scans or something. One told me to take vitamens, and another told me to work less. I didn’t go back to them.

I had an MRI three weeks ago.
