It takes me at leaste an hour to fall alseep, sometimes more. and i can't stay up any later than my dad (he usally goes to bed around 12) so i just lay there. I also sleep walk/talk and its so annoying.
does anybody else have this problem? what should i do?

Pop some pills, get drunk.

Edit: Damn, I'm sorry. I just can't post a lotally non-constructive post. My tip is, if you're just laying there in your bed, get up and do something a while instead. I suggest something boring. Because boring stuff makes you tired.

listen to dane cook on your ipod while in bed. you'll fall asleep after the first sangwich joke.

dane cook's not funny.. but he's loud.. so i don't think that could work for me.

Avoid caffeine and other stimulants after 6 p.m., or all day if possible. Don't use the computer or watch tv 30 minutes before the time you plan to get in bed. Work out sometime in the day.

Is anal a stimulant?

I used to take NyQuil so much it stopped working for me. The best was after I got my wisdom teeth out... NyQuil, Vicodin and Ibuprofen all before bed... Best sleep ever. Aside from when I stayed up to write a term paper and passed out for like 13 hours the next day.

I always have trouble sleeping, although greatly worse than this lately. I stay up for two or three days and then only sleep for a little bit.

I'm sure that combo was the best sleep because you were probably unconcious. I never study all night no matter how little I've done or know.. I always get sleep.

Haha! Nice. I don't feel like paying him though (nor do I really feel like changing it in the first place). Also, it gives me more money to buy my sweet "TGC" or "teenage girl candy" for those first timers.

Yeah, you're right... but I guess I like being unconscious. All nighters for school are a rare thing for me.

the best sleep I get is when I'm really drunk and I just pass out.. I only sleep for like 4 hours like that but it feels like 8.

all nighters on AP are a common occurance though right?

I never sleep well when I'm drunk... usually because I sleep on someone's floor. And then like you said I only get a few hours.

All nighters on AP are indeed a common occurrence. :-)

I used to do that, it got to the point to where I could not sleep unless I was stoned, then one day I realized that I had become dependent on pot. Once I came across that realization I never had a good high, it just made me tired and depressed, so I quit. Now I sleep like a baby.

Melatonin. But after 3 years or so your body adjusts to it and it doesn't really work anymore.

Staring at the ceiling while just laying there has become a regular routine for me. I don't sleep walk anymore, but I do talk. As far as I'm concerned, this shit is normal. As normal as it gets for me, anywy.
If you really can't stand it, get on some fucking pills, they never hurt.

I have trouble sleeping but it has to do with a high sugar count and being ill for weeks.
No joke, I have to undertake a blood test to find out why I'm feeling so rough.

I've stopped eating sweet foods and I had a good night's sleep for once.
My advice would be to ease back on stuff with a high sugar content.

I take melatonin when I can't sleep. That usually does the trick.

I always force myself to go to bed early and listen to podcasts or audio books, just shit with people talking. Always helps me sleep.

If you go to the doctor and tell them about you having problems sleeping they will prescribe you to something like ambien especially if it causes problems in your life which i'm assuming it probably does. It's not that hard to get sleeping pills.

I'd look into Kava Kava if you don't want to go the route of prescription medication. it's supposed to be great for anxiety and depression as well as sleep. just don't get the pill form though, look at your local organic food/health stores for the actual root itself as it's much more potent.

also, not many doctors are going the route of prescribing ambien anymore because of its addictive properties. you'll most likely get Trazodone or something similar, which is what i take. and Seroquel is not something doctors will regularly prescribe unless you have bipolar or schizophrenia. it's mainly an antipsychotic.

just my 2 cents.

You're probably right. Or chamomille and lavendar infused pillows! At really fancy hotels you can order scent infused pillows delivered to your room.
