okay, this summer ive been having a sleeping issue. i can't get to sleep untill about hm 5 30 / 6. and then i sleep through the whole day. sleeping pills from over the counter do not help me. at all. even with them i can fall asleep till like .. 3 which isnt really any better. really my main issue is school starts Sept. 5 and its Aug. 18th. i dont have much time to change this. how can i?
if i stay up for like 24 hours, and go to bed [with a sleeping pill] at like.. nine. then take a sleeping pill the next day and sleep at like nine again and continue that will i get back on schedule?
PS. i can NOT get to the doctors office.

I suffered from insomnia for 3 years, sometimes not sleeping for a couple days. And if I did, it was no more than 3-4 hours. But this year, I found a natural cure without having to pop pills every night. It's simple - keep yourself active throughout the day. For me, working 8 hours a day @ my job does it. By the time 8pm rolls around, I am usually exhausted & ready to hit the pillow. You can't lay around all day, so if you can't/won't work, try other activities like doing plenty of studying, sports or volunteering to keep your mind & body active. Another thing that can cause insomnia is a poor diet & no exercise; of course you're not going to be tired if you aren't doing anything all day. Start eating healthy, avoid drinking too much caffeine (or atleast not at night time) & other sugary foods. As long as you stay on a routine schedule & do all of the things above, you won't need to take sleeping pills. Get in the routine about a week before school starts & you'll be fine.
