Watch tv for like half an hour before going to bed instead of being on a computer. That also helped me. My brain stayed awake and wouldnt stop thinking about things otherwise.

Yeah, i had the same problem about half a year ago. Every night just lay there thinking about stuff for about 2-3 hours.

This. Orgasm releases all kinds of good stuff that relaxes you. Fapping also clears your mind of other thoughts. Nature's own sleeping pill.

Toasty mentioned using more energy throughout the day...
Go for a run once a day or spend some time working out.

just a 30-40 min jog a day will work, preferably at night before dinner. i do it after dinner at around 9:30-10:00 pm just before going to bed if i have to get up early the next day. :)
if you can't leave your house just do some jogging in place or some other random workout. pushups, chinups, crunches.. blablah.
plus it's good for your health! :dope:

the light from the television will cause your body to resist your natural melatonin. if you are having trouble sleeping, go to walmart and buy a bottle of melatonin. its made from plants, its harmless. get the 3 mill dosage and take 1 pill. youll drift off in no time, but you may be a lil groggy the first day or two until you get used to it. 5 bucks a bottle and its buy the vitamins and supplements.

Make sure you don't know what time it is. If you can see what time it is, you know how many hours you still got left before you have to wake up and you'll try to force yourself to sleep. This will cause you to stress and won't help to fall asleep.

Have a hot/warm bath before you go to bed.
Read a book before going to bed.
Listen to music that relaxes you.
Don't have any caffeine, coffee, chocolate, coke etc a few hours before going to bed.

Set an alarm an hour before you want to go to sleep. When it goes off start gettng ready for bed, no matter what you are doing. Fap, take a melatonin pill, get in bed and start reading a book. You'll be asleep in no time.

sometimes i have sleeping problems, tuning discovery channel or history channel makes me fall asleep in short time, dunno why those 2 channels cause that effect.

There are some herbal teas that really help a lot too, add sugar for plus effects.

But i guess there's a definitive solution already mentioned above, anyway fap, have a tea, then watch discovery channel. Don't forget to set the tv on auto off ;)

bset thing to do is just try to go asleep at the same time everyday ( cept for weekends or such ) and even if you stay awake during the first week or so, youll get used to it.

Happens to me when i stay awake late during long breaks or summer, going into school. it sucks cause u dont feel comfortable just sitting there, but you gotta live with it i guess until you get used to it

Get off the computer an hour before you want to sleep and watch tv. I have that problem myself, but I choose to stay up :) Watching tv will ALWAYS eventually make you tired/sleepy

Fapping/working out and doing anything that will raise your core temperature is not the best way to get a 'good nights sleep'. Yes it might make you tired but your body will take longer to enter its rest state because your body waits for your core temp to lower.

This is what my doctor told me =\ She left out the fapping point obviously..I've also heard this on the radio.
