Sleep: There are sleep specialist and maybe you should see one. Very often poor sleep is because of disturbances. Practice good sleep hygiene, go to bed at the same time each night, no eating meals 3 hours before bedtime, control noise levels and lights. Do you snore? Check into apnea. Not getting a good nights sleep can be harmful, talk to your doctor, this is not something that should be ignored.

Sleep issue?: We generally and technically need 6-9 hours of sleep, awakening on 90 minute intervals, I.e. 6 hours, 7.5 hours or 9 hours. This is based on the stage of sleep you'd be in upon awakening. You want to awaken while you're in a light stage of sleep rather than a deep stage. So you'd feel more tired awakening after 8 hours than after 7.5, for example.
