@Belonpopo: try and stay up as long as you can you'll fall asleep eventualy four days then you need to seek professional help thats normaly wen the visions starts i speak from experiance
It's 6AM right now, so I feel your pain. My recommendation to you, from years of experience of ruining my sleeping patterns is, just for a week go to be at 10 PM and set your alarm for 7.30 AM. You'll be amazed how much easier going to sleep is when you're in a routine.
But not really. I use Melatonin when I need to get to sleep. You can get it at most drug stores over the counter for like $5. It works well and is supposedly all natural.
First thing I'd try is exercise. Go get on a treadmill and run. Run until you are too tired to run anymore. If that is too hard then just walk fast, again until you literally can't continue. Wear yourself out. Good luck staying up after that. And drink a SHIT LOAD of water. This cannot be stressed enough. You should be drinking so much water that you are going to the bathroom once an hour. If you bust your ass like this you need to drink like a fish.
Also, not recommended but sure to always work, take a benadryl (diphenhydramine 25mg) and 1 beer. This always works for me if i cant sleep and its bad but like I said, I would not recommend it (because it is obviously dangerous and you wake up tired).
I've had that problem for the last few summers. Whenever I sit around all day not doing anything makes it much worse, but when I excercise I find that I can fall asleep around 12 instead of 3.
Had the same problem a three or four years ago (when I was 16-17ish). Sedatives don't work. I just sort of grew out of it. Now I pass out the minute my face touches something comfy.
No idea what to recommend. Try sticking yourself in a dark room with little brain activity for an hour prior to "sleeping." If you're looking at screens, turn the brightness down to minimum. The body naturally releases it's own brand of sedatives in the absence of light, so keep that in mind.
