I am a full-time rugby athlete in the day, and in the evening I am a doorman.

I get up at about 9:00am for my rugby day. I stay awake through to the evening where I work from 7:00pm - 3:00am. I then come home, and am still wide awake! I usually get to sleep about 7:00am, and get up at 9:00am for the new day.

Now I go through this of having just 2 hours asleep every morning, and about 2 days a week I will have a couple of hours kip in the day.

So all in all, I have about 18-20 hours sleep in a week.


However, I do eventually crash out, about once a month, where I sleep for around 14 hours.



Now many people have said its about getting into a routine, but I cant. I am getting up every day, I go to bed at the right time, and I just cant go to sleep. Ive tried reading, relaxation technique's, lavender, etc. Nothing will work!


I do feel tired every day.

1 major problem is that I can actually sleep in the days. Its just night-time I cant. If I have a completely free day (which I never do), I sleep right the way through, and wake up at night. Something about night wakes me up! :?

Please someone advise or help, because im always tired, and it effects my lifestyle!
