    Go for a long walk/ run in the evening- might help you release excess energy.
    This can actually keep you awake longer as exercise energizes a lot of people. It's better for your sleep schedule to do cardio-type exercise early in the day.

    As someone who has dealt with really bad insomnia on and off for several years, I've found that the things that work best for me are reading a boring book and drinking some herbal tea (the Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea is really good for this). I did biofeedback therapy for my insomnia and anxiety several years ago and have some muscle relaxation tapes from that which also do wonders for getting me to sleep, so if you think some tape-hypnotherapy might be a viable option for you then you could do that.

    Use medication carefully and sparingly. Sometimes the only thing that will get me back on a schedule is a night with my dear friend Ambien, but that happens a max of once a month.

    The internet is the most common cause of insomnia. So many sites, so little time.

    .

    A valid point. Usually if I can't sleep it is because I am wound up from the stresses of the day and need to walk it off.

    You tea suggestion was a good one. Also eating oatmeal, like a cookie, I have heard helps you sleep.

    What about warm milk and 3 over the counter sleep aids?
