It sounds like insomia to me...Insomia is a condition that people has trouble falling asleep. Also what else might be the problem is you are drinking caffeine at night, sometimes that affects people too. I can understand where you're coming from about not want to take meds at the age 16, maybe you need to see a doctor and they can determine what's best for you at your age. Good Luck!! Hope you will be able to get some sleep in the future.

Well, do you have any particular reason for not falling asleep? I doubt it's that you're not tired because I'm sure you are. I'm kind of in the same boat. Except my problem is that my mind doesn't shut off until I MAKE it. If I don't, I sit up all night thinking and worrying and it's not healthy. The best thing to do is try doing something relaxing and comforting an hour or so before bed-time. Might help. Good luck!

Watch tv makes the eyes tired and want to close haha that helps me. or computer lighting with no other lights on. try putting on relaxing music :D

Smoke weed.

I'm 16...awake now because I can't go to sleep...I havn't been able to sleep until like 3 or 4 each night...then get up at 7. It's like my mind won't shut off and I don't know how to make it.

Yeah im in the same boat because im sooo tired and then i cant sleep beacuse i have fallen asleep earlier in the day for like 4-5 hr and then i cant sleep at night my mom told me to take benedryl but i told her no cause i will get to depending on it to make me go to sleep.
i mess aroundon the computer till i get really tired
try reading a book that gets really boring fast and will put u to sleep
