I had my pineal gland removed in 2008 due to a brain tumor., Ask an Expert

Medical Advice

I had my pineal gland removed in 2008 due to a brain tumor. I have a non existance sleep wake routine. I sleep all the time (18+ hours a day. Sometimes I miss whole days. I have become extremely depressed over the situation and my friends and family think in just being lazy. The biggest probably is not being able to stay awake! I have never heard of this disorder and would like to find out more about it.

What is Non-24-Hour Sleep Wake Disorder ?
