Sounds to me like some form of insomnia or mania. I have Seasonal Affective Disorder; in the winter, during my depression, I'm still exhausted after 9 or 10 hours, but in the summer I flip around to mania and often run on 6 or less. And, when one of my most powerful alter-egos was spawning years ago, she often kept me up late into the night.

......nice to meet you, by the way. >.>

Nice to meet you too. ^_^

I have SAD too, but I've never had this happen before--and the energy isn't physical. My body is exhausted but my psychic energy levels are high. I'd like to do a transfer but I think all I'm gonna manage today is my usual cup of chai. Omgs.

Yes, that's what my mania and whatnot is. I honestly truly want to sleep but I've got too many ideas rolling around and around in my head, this pressing need to be up and doing something though I physically can't, because there is so much to do. A lot of the time it's a creativity overload, for me. I've been doing well so far this summer but at my lowest point last year, I was only getting 4 hours of sleep, and I was unable to drag myself to work in the morning for being so tired but I just couldn't sleep.

I'm sure it doesn't manifest itself the same way in everyone, but if I was going through what you're going through now, that's what I'd blame it all on.

Yeah, this isn't insomnia or anything like that. I sleep well nine times out of ten, and I can't describe this as mania. It's purely energy--it's not thoughts or emotions or anything like that. It's literally energy surges.

I've had people telling me to look up kundalini awakenings because it sounds like it. It may be so.

I know, but it screws with your birth control, which was an issue until very recently. Thanks, though.

I wound up buying a light box. I live in the New England. Gods help me why I moved here given the winters...
