I agree, i am a person who it takes forever to fall asleep!. what i do is, as im laying in bed and trying to fall asleep, i think of my day, and sort of day dream about things that id like to happen!. think of something that makes you really happy, and just close your eyes an imagine it!. make sure its something you dont mind dreaming about! also, you could read a book, or a magazine until your eyelids get heavy!. or just talk on the phone, turn all the lights out and just lay down while your talking!. you will fall asleep in no time!. good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The best way to fall asleep is to try and limit thinking!. I know it may be hard, but try a simple task that requires minimal effort!. I know you said counting sheep doesn't work for you, but try something else, like reciting a long poem in your head or try remembering everything that happened in a movie you watched!. Don't try to hard though!. The best thing that works for me is to think about sleeping!. I lie in bed and think about how it feels to be really, really tired and how good it feels to fall asleep!. Pretty soon I convince myself I'm tired!. You could always try something like reading, but it can take a very long time for you to be tired enough to fall asleep!. You could also try to think of nothing, which is hard and usually only lasts for a couple of seconds!. Think of a song in your head and then suddenly stop it randomly!. Good luck!.
