Is My Body Missing Something Dietwise, or Do I Just Have a Super Bad Eating Habit?

Question by uknowitstrue: Is my body missing something dietwise, or do I just have a super bad eating habit?
EVERY night for a number of years I crave sugar before bed. Not like juice or anything, it has to be like nibs, chocolate bars, skittles … that kind of stuff
I’ve tried to cut it out but it never works.
I literally Can not sleep without candy.
and not just a little. Like a whole bag of skittles etc.
Is my body telling me I’m low in blood sugar, or that somethings missing, or is this just a mental thing that I Can overcome… if it is, how do I do that? I’ve tried going a week without any candy, and was up until 7 in the morning every time because I just wasn’t tired at night (then I would get up for a bit, go to the couch or something, lay there from 7-8 and then I could sleep (I’ve tried sleeping elsewhere at night, without sugar to see if it was just somehow my room, but I was still up til 7)
Can sugar somehow have the opposite effect on me than it normally does? or is this just a really weird and bad habit?
