Sleep disorder: You most likely are not sleeping well at night, and could possess sleep apnea, or possible paroxysmal limb movements in sleep. Perhaps you have narcolepsy, or depression. Would make sure that you are not suffering anemia or thyroid issues. See a sleep specialist and get testing, which might include an overnight sleep study.
