Complex: You do have a sleep disorder, and cause could involve sleep apnea, depression, anxiety, vivid nitemares, shift work disorder, circadian rhythm disturbance, or an effect of alcohol, drugs, or medications. Best to undergo full evaluation and uncover problem and treat rather that just take sleeping pills and hope.
