thanks for clarifying.... the feeling sleepy and the tingling isnt part of your dissociation problems but is part of your sleep disorder....I was wondering if this was part of a sleep disorder because I know someone with sleep apnea with these same problems.

I have a new suggestion based on your clarification.... maybe you can talk with your medical doctor who over sees your sleep disorder. they can help you with some meds and help you get on a good sleep routine where you dont have this problem any more... example my friend with sleep apnea was given a c- pap machine and some medication that together they have solved this problem of feeling sleepy and getting the "tingles" because they are now getting the right amount of sleep and oxygen that they need.
