Try working out or something. Ride a bike around town for a while until you're ready to fall apart

Try writing a research essay. Whenever I do those, I'm always begging for sleep.

If it doesn't work out... Well, at least you have a research essay you can sell to someone.

dont take naps during the day
try getting yourself into a 'normal' schedule. go to bed around 10, wake up at 8, 3 or 4 meals a day
dont eat right before your scheduled sleep time
use up your energy!
-exercise in the morning and/or afternoon
-get shit done

The advice I was given by my doctor was that you shouldn't drink soda after 4 PM, nor exercise after 8 PM or it will be very difficult to fall asleep. Anyone who's recommending "Jog until you're tired" is wrong; that won't help. It will only make your body more active, make you feel wide awake, and prevent your body from producing melatonin.

That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

A handout my doctor gave to me. The only thing written on the top is "Nemours Foundation" so I'll credit them with that.


Edit: Actually, nevermind. There are names at the end!

That's really weird, because I quit drinking so I wouldn't get cirrhosis, but it's the only thing that ever got me to sleep at a normal time. Now I roll around in bed for hours. Especially weird since the symptoms of alcohol include lethargy and drowsiness... Stress and depression are about the only things that make sense on that list.

Drink a beer. I had the same problem, and nothing else mentioned in this thread (except pot, which is out of question) did/does not help.

Edit: Oh and yes, this is serious advice

It may be serious advice, but he's asking for a natural way without drugs

Might try alcohol free beer then, but it probably won't have the same effect.

Typo. It was supposed to be after 8 P.M. Good catch, thanks.
