> I am Really having trouble getting out of bed in the morning. I set the alarm, I turn it off. I move it across the room. I still turn it off. (I don't even remember doing this).

> I have my Ritalin right by the bed so I can wake up, take my dose, and fall back asleep (as 3Beers had suggested once.) This worked with Provigil sometimes, but not with Ritalin.

I am now on moclobemide and low dose selegiline, and my sleep is better than ever before.
I think you might try a nor-adrenergic antidepressant like Remeron or Reboxetine, or better a MAOI.
