Is anyone else having trouble with the time change?

I force myself to stay awake until I go to bed at 11pm.  I'm really tired by then so why am I waking up at 5am ever since we turned the clocks back?

It's driving me nuts.  I've never had trouble sleeping!

At 5 in the morning it's way too early to get up.  So I very lightly doze on and off until 7am.  I figure I might as well get up by then. 

I want  glorious sleep from 11pm to 8am back again!  Anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this?  I don't have sleeping pills and don't really want them.

(15 more minutes and I can go to bed!  Yay!)

The time change never bothers me -- spring or fall.   I adjust to different situations pretty easily.   I can even sleep in a motel the first night now.    I used to lie awake most of the night the first night we were on a trip.    Maybe I've stayed in so many hotel/motel rooms in my life I feel at home in them now.   Could be.   :-)

Both Dad and I have had trouble sleeping and I didn't even connect it to the time change.  It's never bothered us before.  I have been waking up EVERY hour and glancing at the clock.  I jerk awake, thinking I'm late.  It makes me mad.  I don't know what we can do, other than eliminating all caffeine and stuff like that.  I hope you sleep better, mags.
