1. See other doctors outside your area and/or call specialists out of state. If you've been seeing the 'family doctor' for decades, he won't be of any help. Get in touch with any known medical research groups (in Cali we have Standford Medical Center, etc.) as they take interest in 'extreme' conditions. Try to find *specialists* who deal with sleeping disorders, and see as many as you can - get second, third, and fourth opinions.
2. Have you tried getting the light exposure for seasonal whatever condition? It can affect sleep and you DON'T have to live in Finland or some shit to get it.
3. If you can sleep all day and stay up all night, isn't that a good thing? I mean, it's opposite to normal conventions but you ARE getting a full day's sleep and are presumably operating at full mental capacity? Could you get a night job, take night classes if you need education, etc, to take advantage of this?
4. Some people have offset 'clocks' and don't sleep normal hours, and find that adjusting their schedule to follow that works. The only catch is living with a wife/family as they will have a more normal routine. But if you find a pattern that works consistently, don't fight it?
5. Do you have any kind of daily exercise routine in your life? If not, do it. If you are a stay indoors and get on the internet type (I am) it phucks with your sleep. Going out, doing stuff, and having regular physical activity is better for your body.
6. Try not to booze/drugs/smoke as those also mess with sleep.
