have you tried the melatonin route? I recently stopped taking melatonin and drinking coffee, I think I was in a vicious circle of groggy sleep and then caffeine to wake up. I feel MUCH better now but..... I think Melatonin definitely works! I have a hard time getting to sleep which melatonin helped but when I do fall asleep I will sleep for 8+ hours. I know other people who would get to sleep but then wake up and melatonin helped them too.
Melatonin is the neurotransmitter that is responsible for your Circadian rythm.

If worse ocmes to worse, get some ambien, its a hypnotic, it will help you get a natural rythm.. if you can stay in one.
