Wampa Stompa: Aug 15, 2008; I literally have no idea what I just saw in there!; Grimey Drawer

Maintaining sleep hygiene helped me a lot. I had on-and-off again insomnia until age 21 or so, and the thing that made the most difference was only using my bed for sleep. I had been living in studio apartments, so my bed was a major piece of furniture, and I'd sit on it for a lot of the day. Once I started making a point of only sitting on or lying in my bed when I was ready to fall asleep, it became much easier to sack out quickly. Habit is pretty powerful, so if you establish the connection in your brain that bed = sleep (and/or sex, if you're into that sort of thing), lying down in it primes you to fall asleep pretty quickly. Dunno how much it will help you, but it's worth a shot.
