:angels: :sing:Sweet dreams are made of these . . ."i have a chronic problem with insomnia, here are things that help me when i get into a rut of no sleep:
1. routine - get into one, so your body knows when it is time to rest. plus, a regular time of rest, even if not sleep, is helpful. go to bed same time every night, get up the same time. it helps like crazy.
2. be physical - lots of people here said it, they're right. go for a walk after dinner, bang your girl, lift weights, do pushups. whatever. get your heart-rate up for 30 minutes, you'll sleep better.
3. most important - see your doctor about a sleep aid. ambien does the trick.
sucks to not sleep, i feel your pain.

Exercise during the day but not at night (which was mentioned, I think)
Eat more calories early on unless you're watching your diet. Larger meals tend to have a sedative effect but some say have a small snack right before sleep.
Drink nothing caffeine related for 7 to 12 hours before sleep.
create a calm night routine add in some white noise or something. Stick to it and try not to use your bed for anything other than sleep or sex.
I wouldn't suggest purposely staying up the whole night though. You'll more than likely crash the next day probably at the wrong time and be up another night. I've done it, it's the worst, for me anyway.
If you find that your sleeplessness isn't just a phase you may need other help regulating your sleep pattern.

Get yourself some small children. One of two things will happen. You'll be shagged out from looking after them and so you'll crash like a baby or you'll be awake and able to do all the night feeds and your old lady will think you were made in heaven. Or go to a country where opiates are legal and chong yourself stupid. OR and this is only if the first two methods don't work, put Oprah Winfrey on the TV and try to have a wank. The effort will fucking have you pushing out the zzzzzzs in no time.
if you haven't tried valerian root pills or tea it's a natural remedy

Melatonin, works like a charm
Okay dont laugh--but warm milk with sugar works wonders for me.
on a more lighter note---Stack all your kitchen knives on your ceiling fan and lay below it--now switch it on and thou shalt get the most wonderful and endless sleep.(note to meself: Gotta stop watching the gore flicks)
Ps:-Warm milk with sugar really works wonders

Pitch black room and white noise(like a fan). Does it for me
It would probably be more effective if you exercised during the day. Usually that keeps your body on a cycle of needing rest, and you should rest easier.
i took a nice little walk like an hour before bed , came home took a nice warm shower , listen to alittle music , along side of doing yard work all day yesterday and crashed hard for 7 hours thanks for tips guys
On the plus-side, you have the neatest, cleanest yard in the neighbourhood :thumbsup:
