Anyone Else Have Trouble Gettin To Sleep?, Think you can give me some ideas..? :(

I honestly don't remember the last time I got a good nights sleep. By a "good nights sleep" I mean being asleep by 1am and out of bed by 12pm.
I usually get to sleep around 4am and wake up at something like 3pm.

Don't think i'll be sleeping tonight... its 5:43am already
I've tried reading, drinking milk , having a bath, going for a long walk, even drinking beer (seems to have worked best!! But mom thinks I drink too much ) Any ideas as to what might help me?

I have that problem!!! for most of this year i havnt been able to get to sleep I always end up watching t.v or listening to music and i get to sleep at about 3am and get up at 7am to go to school

Lol.. does it affect you at all? I can't tell if I've dreamt something or its really happened Not entirely sure if thats to do with lack of sleep tho... Think i'm just crazy

No that happens to me aswell like the other day i was angry at my friend but is was because I dreamt she had said something mean but i got it mixed up with real life!

Or I think ive told someone something already and I havnt I just dreamed it

I do, but I'm not worrying about it until Sunday when I have to go to bed for school.

I plan on taking a sleeping pill that day.

Have you tried laying down in bed and reading a book? It works for me. Not because the book is boring but because it makes you relax and focus on one thing. If the book pulls you in and you get into it, your mind starts to relax enough to the point where you might be able to doze off.

Yeah Ive tried that but the words just get fuzzy

Lol.. yeah, I did that last night... I read for about 2hours, it usually makes my eyes real heavy.. but didn't this time. Maybe i'm reading the wrong kinda book. What do you read?

lol i was reading Harry Potter

I only read the first Harry Potter book... Many many years ago now lol.. when I was in primary school, oh the memories.
I'm currently reading Along Came A Spider by James Patterson. Its a good book, ya'no, one of them where you can't stop reading. The other night I said, "ok, one more chapter and then i'll sleep" I think I read another 6 or something

Oh i hate them books I always reading the hole thing in like a night!

Lol... I force myself to stop reading. I need to get a good sleeping pattern going.. I start college next month, can't not turn up now can I?!

Yeah well i dont have any ideas sorry or id use some of them myself!
