My sleep schedule is FUBAR.
Three nights ago I went to sleep at around 4AM and slept for about 3 hours. Later I took a nap around 1PM, slept for 5 hours. That night I stayed up all night, unable to fall asleep until the NEXT night, where I feel asleep around midnight for about 6 hours of sleep. Last night I went to sleep around 2AM for another 6 hours of sleep. Tonight it's 6AM and I'm still not asleep, show no sign of fatigue.
The semester starts in less than 3 weeks. These sleep problems are insane. This month has not been stressful at all (no job, no school, doing some laid-back research for a professor). If I have these problems during the semester, I'm going to end up skipping classes for every minute of sleep that I can get whenever I can get it, and that will be bad. This is my last year of college before grad school, and I'm taking two very difficult courses (one is grad-level quantum)
What can I do about this? Sleeping agents don't do anything. I can stay up as long as I want if I have enough caffeine and sugar (for sugar I like to eat an apple, keeps me fully alert for about an hour when I try to get back into a normal sleep schedule)
