Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome .. D.S.P.S is something I've been googling about recently .. Due to the sleeping problems I had during the last ten years of my life ..
I had struggles with insomnia triggered by my anxiety problems .. but recently it seemed to be something different ..
I'm also known to be a night owl .. & I was more successful than others in night time jobs that require full concentration like driving ..
I have apnea too .. which is a breathing difficulty during sleeping that does not only cause loud noisy snoring .. but impede ability to wake up in a good mood .. & ability to function well while awake ..
I can't be so sure about my case .. I'm not a specialist .. and unfortunately many psychiatrists lack the sufficient knowledge in these sleeping disorders .. that's my opinion at least ..
DSPS ( or DSPD ) is one of five or six kinds of Circadian Rhythm Sleeping Disorders ( CRSD ) .. sleeping disorders related to human body clocks .. & DSPD might not be the exact diagnosis for my problem .. but definitely it's very close to it ..
These sleeping disorders makes life even more & more difficult for a person with bipolar disorder & to anyone who's struggling with depression , anxiety & anger management problems ..
Social integration becomes a real problem .. and even if you're unemployed .. there are many important & basic daily life activities that you can't simply do it after 6:00 pm .. which means having less hours to accomplish your tasks than other ( normal people ) ..
And please don't get me wrong .. I'm not only talking about this to share my experience & knowledge .. I'm trying to think loudly .. sleeping disorders are not important for every member in this group.. but I don't think I'm the only living creature who's experiencing them ..
I have more details regarding my sleeping problems to talk about .. but I want to be sure that I'm describing them the right way before publishing ..
