well if you don't want to take sleeping pills like nyquil (to, me it's cheating AND unhealthy to rely on the pills) then i would suggest replaying a quiet (not heavy metal, mind you) song over and over again!. make the song a peaceful one and focus solely on the lyrics!. also to fall asleep, try drinking some warm milk and read a history book (or another boring book)!. to relax, i would look out my window and count the stars!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I usually get up and play a couple online games!. Solitaire or Free Cell usually work, and I usually get sleepy after about 1/2 hr!.
If that doesn't work for you, then maybe start a journal!. Write down what is on your mind and come up with quick solutions to get whatever is bothering you off your mind!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
