You need to discipline yourself.

Go for medical test too, malaria/typhoid may pamper you to be sleeping out of proportion.
I wish you success

Switch off your phone during exams time... Anybody that wants to talk to you should do that after exams...

Find a system that works for you because you understand your body better than anyone else. It took me quite a while before I figured out I function better in the early hours of the morning than at night. Back then I would sleep and sleep, and then wake in the morning lamenting just as you're doing now.

Find out what works for you. Observe your body system, understand the rhythm and work out a schedule.

@Op, as funny as your questions sound. My advice for you is..

Start going to gym or rather start running before you go to bed...
This is mere laziness, I experienced it too
Sometimes this happens because you are demanding too much from yourself, you loose hope when you realise all you need to read in order to pass exam, you just keep saying, there is still time, before you know it, exam is tomorrow............., make a plan...if you read a topic per day and Understand it, it is better than 7 topics a day without Understanding. So, taking it slow may help you so much. Otherwise, join a reading group and suggest that you all share topics to read, so that you won't need to read everything yet know everything.
Another thing you can do is...go straight to the point and start reading past exam papers. This may help. If not..
Just go for deliverance grin

I'll advise yhu to understand yhurself.... know the time that's good for yhu ...not everyone is a night reader...if yhure a daytime reader... then trying to read at night will be like a waste of time...

Learn to manage yhur time and avoid stress...for example.. avoid unnecessary visitations... watching of movies.. unnecessary gisting etc... it'll help yhu...
Don't be shy to ask for help...from a friend or classmate that's doing better...
Yhull be fine...if yhu can be disciplined and determined..

And oh try to make maximum use of yhur weekends...

Good luck

Bro lemme give you a little piece of advice...YOU NEED SLEEP! Yes you do. You're obviously stressed out by the long lecturing hours(hated those then).

But you know what? There's a way out, EASE UP ON THE LECTURES and you'll find that there's a lot of leeway for you to get your energy up and study. You're in 100lvl if I'm not mistaken.

Na naija you dey bros, some lecturers are usually absent for the most part of the semester until a few weeks before exam where dey then distribute materials and quickly brush up on the course. And then there are the subjects that are quite easy to grasp alone with the help of good materials, and preferably a brilliant study partner(s).

You don't need to attend all lectures to get the allocated marks for attendance (I think just 70% attendance is enough). Nigerian University courses are quite generic and repetitive, more so in 100lvl so you sure as hell know what is going to be set just by comparing the past questions of 3 previous sessions.

Bro COol DOwn, get yourself out of the state of panic and you'll see that things aren't as difficult as you think. Lest I forget, after-school tutorial classes can be very helpful too. It is well, just chill and think well. Good luck man!

YOU NEED TO DISCIPLINE YOURSELF
TRY TO CREATE TIME DURING THE DAY FOR READING
AVOID HEAVY MEALS

OR ALTERNATIVELY VISIT YOUR DOCTOR AND STAY OF SOLITUDE/AVOID STAYING ALONE

The best way to let the examiner know how much you sleep is by sleeping in the exam hall using your question paper and answer sheet as pillow.

Quickly treat yourself of malaria ! That's the most probable culprit; then plan your study timetable. Good luck
