For some strange reason, i am becoming more and more tired earlier in the evening.
Normally i sleep around 11:30-midnight, but now i cant even stay awake to watch the full Day[9] daily (ends at 11). I dont know why i am becoming extremely tired so much quicker, but that is just something I may have to deal with.
The real thing that is bugging me is I seem to be much more tired in the late morning/afternoon. I am barely able to stay awake during school, and I almost fell asleep on the bus.
I know you guys are not doctors, but does anyone know how its possible to be sleeping more, yet being more tired than before?
Well it could have to do with sleep cycles.

Having a hard time getting up? Take advantage of the 90-minute sleep cycle.
Even if you’ve enjoyed a full night’s sleep, getting out of bed isn’t easy if your alarm goes off when you’re in the middle of the deeper stages of sleep (especially stages 3 and 4). If you want to make mornings less painful, set a wake-up time that’s a multiple of 90 minutes, the length of the average sleep cycle. For example, if you go to bed at 10 p.m., set your alarm for 5:30 (a total of 7 ½ hours of sleep) instead of 6:00 or 6:30. You’ll feel more refreshed at 5:30 than you will with another 30 to 60 minutes of sleep, because you’re getting up when your body and brain are already close to wakefulness.
I personally don't believe in sleep cycles affecting how sleepy you are in the afternoon though. Some people claim that waking up at the end of a cycle leaves you less tired for the rest of the day but I have yet to see proof.
Read through the article I posted, I read it earlier this month.
We really don't know much about you, do you drink coffee? If it's really an issue, and the article doesn't help, talk to a doctor about it. Many things could be causing you to become tired during the day.
