    *if this is a troll, whatever, maybe someone may see this and it will help them sleep :) * try ASMR (on youtube just google search) If you get tingles from it (it's a weird sound thing) it can put you to sleep. it helps people with insomnia, and people like we who don't have it and just are stressed or can't sleep =) listening 2 it makes u sleepy and tingly. some ppl have different triggers, like i enjoy soft voices and tapping and page turning. u might like other sounds. its so weird to explain, but just try and listen to a few. use headphones! and watching the screen makes it better i think, but i download it to my iphone and listen 2 it to sleep everynight anyway without the visuals. visuals make u more sleepy tho :) i seriously love gentlewhispering on youtube. it might sound REALLY weird.. but just try it... heres a link anyway (u can just choose a random video. some are made for people who like certain sounds, but overall anyone is fine 2 choose): https://www.youtube.com/user/GentleWhispering/vide...

    if u cant decide, maybe i would reccomend.. this vid to start? this was my first vid i watched and have loved falling asleep 2 these ever since =) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVpfHgC3ye0

    Where I live it's nearly 2 pm so maybe you're just in the wrong time zone.

    Most sleeping problems are probably caused by stress, depression, anxiety, nervousness and worry as well as being too keyed up.

    Sleeping pills are unhealthy and can give you bad side effects such as headaches and drowsiness during the day so you are better off without them.

    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 OTC sleep aids include Chamomile tea, 5-HTP, Melatonin and Valerian Root.

    Sleep enhancing foods include warm milk, turkey, cherries, oatmeal, bananas and wine.

    Sleep is for the weak. Don't submit to it.
