Why can't I fall asleep?!?
I'm thirteen years old and it's almost 2:00 A.M. (where I am, anyways) and I haven't even YAWNED.
Why can't I fall asleep?!
Also, I'm ADHD so caffeine just makes me more tired, so I only drink decaf coffee. So caffeine really isn't a big issue.

If you are watching tv, playing a video game, or looking at any bright screen, STOP. Electronic stimulation, combined with the light, tricks your brain into thinking its still light out, and you wont be able to fall asleep.
The body takes 27 minutes to fall asleep. 20 for your brain to adjust to the lighting and 7 for it to go into sleep mode, for lack of a better phrase.
If youve had lots of caffienne, youll have to wait till it wears off, sorry!
Hope this helps! :)

To sleep better just relax and switch off, if you can.
If you are having trouble switching off at bedtime some light exercise (for example, push ups or sit ups) at bedtime often helps you to relax, unwind and switch off and that often improves your sleep. Strenuous exercise at bedtime is likely to ruin your sleep.
Common sleep aids include warm milk, Chamomile tea, 5-HTP, Melatonin and Valerian.

I cant fall asleep sometimes either, but if your hungry, get something to eat like a snack. If your hungry,you will have a hard time falling asleep. Or take a warm bath. Or wear comfortable clothes. that stuff always helps me fall asleep.
