Have you tried modafinil? (I think it's called provigil in the US?) It's an amazing drug. I've been taking it way before I started medication for bipolar due to being extremely sleepy in daytime to the point of being teaching standing up while fighting the urge to fall asleep, I have this problem even if I sleep a lot. Also this drug is great for studying and focusing at work. Now that I'm medicated it still works though not as strong as before due to the sedative effects of all the drugs I take. However you need to ask your doctor because it does have some side effects that need to be monitored.
