I suffer the same fate. What works everytime for me is a few laps in the pool. I'd say swim for about 1/2 hour.

turn off the tv/lights ect. and sit in the dark you will fall aslepp sometime, or try not to think about anything

try melatonin. you can get it at a health food store. I give it to my 9yo(docs orders) to help him sleep. If I dont He'll be up til 2am. It works for him.

I often have this same problem. think about the details of a goal or fantasy to block you from any negative thoughts. i guarantee that you will become relaxed and go to sleep before you realize what hit you.

Sound physical and mental health. Great cheerfulness and happiness of mind.

Try melatonin first. It is natural and you can find it at The Vitamin Shoppe. 5 mg. should knock you out. Take the ones that you put under your tongue. (sublingual) They go directly into your blood stream.If that does not work, a prescription that works is Trazadone, but it gives you sugar cravings about 20 minutes after you take it.

Chamomile tea, counting backwards from 100, an eye mask (to block out all light), ................listening to soothing music or sounds.........if all else fails just take some Tylenol PM or NyQuil for a while. If that fails call your doc, maybe he can prescribe something.
