Seriously, sex will do it.

Try watching american football, baseball or cricket. Usually does it for me!

Seriously, what keeps you awake? Are you up all night thinking about things? If so, you just need to relax and clear your mind before sleeping. If you go to bed with a head full of questions, you will have problems trying to sleep.
If you have issues, try to resolve them before you sleep or at least put a plan in place to resolve them so you can have peace of mind when you go to bed.

Or, something else I find works - sex, as long as the missus doesn't mind...

you could exercise or you could drink chamomile tea...or peppermint...its soothing and it helps my friend...try counting backwards from 100 and breathing in through your nose and out between your mouth while laying on your back..although if you have insomnia you'd probably get irritated lol...you could always go with 3 shots of cold hard vodka lol..no mix. that'll do you in :)

Why does it have to be something "natural" that makes you go to sleep?

After three months of insomnia, I'd certainly visit a doctor and ask for help. A doctor can prescribe a non-narcotic sleeping aide that may help knock out this sleepless cycle you are in by regulating your sleep.

Some of the herbal "sleep aides" in the health-food stores can be dangerous because they aren't regulated by the FDA. (Not that THAT agency does much regulating on anything anymore....)

it's like any real health problem, you need a real doctor not an altmed fantasist

Take a chelated calcium tablet that has vitamin D3 in it. Also take a magnesium tablet ( as they work together) together with the calcium a half hour before bed time?

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) and Vitamin B3 (Niacin) work together to produce the brain chemical serotonin, which is essential for restful REM sleep, so take a multi B complex supplement that includes all the B's ie ~ B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12.

Have a soothing cup of organic loose leaf chamomile tea ~ this could be the sleep remedy you need too? Ensure that it is the organic loose leaf variety as the commercial and tea bag varieties have had way too much goodness pulverised from them to ever be of any therapeutic value ? Any good health food store should be able to provide you with loose leaf organic herbs ?

For more difficult insomnia, try 1mg of melatonin sublingually (dissolved under the tongue) 15 minutes before bedtime?any good health food store will be able to provide you with all these things?


Sweet dreams?

Keep to a schedule where you go to sleep and get up at the same times every day. This will put your body into a good sleep-wake rhythm.

For several hours before bedtime, avoid alcohol, drinks that contain caffeine, chocolate, heavy, sugary or spicy foods and smoking.

Try to get regular exercise in the morning or afternoon. Avoid exercising in the evening.

Make the place you sleep as comfortable as possible. Buy a firm, comfortable mattress, make sure your bedroom is a comfortable temperature for sleeping and well ventilated. Block out all distracting noise and darken the room as much as possible.

Use your bed for sleep and sex only. Do not use your bed as an office or recreation room.

Good luck

Try going to college and have a report that has to be written by the next morning. Y
