Answers:

See a doctor. You may have a sleep disorder that needs to be treated. Also, make sure your sleep environment is conducive to sleep by:

1) blocking out light
2) eliminating noise (except for white noise)
3) going to bed the same time every night
4) quit watching tv for at least 30 min to an hour b/4 bedtime to allow your mind to begin relaxing for sleep
5) having a comfortable bed
6) temperature control so you aren't too hot or too cold
7) eliminating interruptions and distractions
8) don't eat late so you won't be disturbed by indigestion
9) don't ingest caffeine after 3:00pm in the afternoon

The best night's sleep I ever got was during a sleep study. I was in a sound proof room (no sirens wailing in the distance, no neighborhood dogs barking, etc) that was pitch black (no street lights shining in my bedroom window), it was climate controlled and set to 70 degrees (which is my favorite sleep temperature) and it was the most comfortable mattress i've ever slept on.

I was afraid I would be too inhibited to sleep and the next thing I knew they were waking me up to tell me the study was over!
