only one i know is clear your mind, purposely force yourself not to think about anything, and hope it clicks where you fall asleep.


been having major sleeping issues lately. don't really want to mess with sleeping pills either since you become dependent on those, been there with Afrin...lol. not trying to get into a bad habit.

I have serious sleeping problems, since I was kid. Really overactive mind. I would say to try melatonin. I know you said no pills, but it's a natural hormone. The only side effect is that it loses its useless if your in an angry state. Like because of a girl or something.

Another thing you might want to try is to use your sleeping room for sleeping only. Don't do any internet browsing, or other kinds of work in there.

Usually I help women go to sleep by f*cking them. You should try me.

Just kidding. I'm not a flaming *****t

There are plenty of over-the-counter sleeping aides.

Try reading a book, watch Family Guy, or keep a fan on in the bathroom where you can hear the buzz all night.

You don't really become dependant on melatonin, so try that. Benadryl works too but really you shouldn't use it long term.

Try exercising also.

Exercising helps. I used to have crazy insomnia which greatly subsided when I started going to the gym regularly. Physical tiredness allows you to easily sleep.

Benadryl will make you KTFO... but don't use that frequently. What might be good is to reset your sleep cycle by taking it ~2 hours before you wish to sleep, and crash real early that day.

Would definitely not recommend GHB, opiates, etc.

I've tried numerous things, but always come back to Indica. I only sleep about 6 hours a day though.

I watch youtube videos to lull myself to sleep everyday. Usually by watching dota 2 games or some NBA highlights

Well for starters, stop stressing about it, that's just going to make it worse.

Get a good serve of healthy carbs and magnesium (brown rice, veggies, or even in tablet form) like 60-90 minutes before bed. Glutamine (can be bought in powder) can also work wonders too.

But if it's more of a mental issue, some of these tips can help:
- Get off laptop, phones etc for 30 min before bed, it stimulates your brain way too much (plenty of research on this, google)

- Sit, lay or even meditate in a dark room for 10 minutes before trying to fall asleep

One thing that's especially helped me is to either write your thoughts on a piece of paper or write down the order of what I'm doing tomorrow down. Kind of like a brain clean out, you won't stress about forgetting anything or whatever because it's written down.

I read a magazine and that gets me sleepy. I usually read the Economist because the writing in that thing is so goddam boring that it usually gets my eyelids feeling heavy.

Getting a lick of that good D usually does the trick for me ;)

But seriously you'll probably have to distract your mind. What gets me knocked out 100% of the times is watching a movie at the end of the day on my laptop(lights off and adjusted brightness for night time) and 40 minutes in I'm knocked out(around midnight)

Although getting exposure to light before sleeping won't do any favors. Maybe you should check out some guided meditation on sleeping?

One sort of strange thing that I do is listen to music with my eyes closed and dream up movie scenes using the music as the soundtrack. For some reason that always seems to help me get to sleep.

Exercise, dont eat past 8 pm, no computer 2 hours before bed, read a book. You know all the hard stuff. Dont expect to be cured in one night it requires consistency until your sleeping pattern is restored
