hope that helped!

marchingbandbaby answered Monday December 27 2004, 10:29 am: i listen to country music really low. i know that your probably like ugh, country, but pick a soothing music to listen too. but not too loud, and don't pick something you would want to sing too, because that wouldn't help you at all.

HyperactiveMiss answered Monday December 27 2004, 4:42 am: I'm even worse than that. I don't go to sleep until 5-7 AM! I stay awake because of choice though. If you'd like to sleep earlier I have some suggestions that might help you.
1. Stay up for a whole 24 hours if you can. If you can't, I'd try to stay awake for as long as you can, taking a quick nap, and waking up. After a day of no sleep, you'll be awfully tired. Wait until the time you'd like to go to sleep (Like 10 PM or something) and then sleep. You'll sleep like a log and you'll be back on track!
2. Maybe you can't sleep earlier because you're on the computer. When I'm on the computer, I can be on for hours and not feel at all sleepy. You should probably limit yourself from the computer.
3. If you're laying in bed and you can't sleep, maybe it's because you have too much on your mind. If that's the case, take a notepad, and write your thoughts down. Clear your head. In the morning you can go back to those ideas later.
4. Listening to classical or boring music might help. Or you can try any music, actually. Whatever works for you.
5. When you're trying to sleep, don't think about anything. Just clear your mind and concentrate on your breathing. Some people think about being on a rollercoaster, concentrating on the twists and turns. You could also try that, however whenever I try that I end up thinking about how fun it was and then I can't fall asleep. Lol.
6. Try reading. Eventually your eyes will get tired and you'll drift off to sleep.
7. Watch TV. You can put it on sleep mode, so it won't be on all night after you've fallen asleep.
8. Eat something and/or milk. You could also try a warm drink, like tea or hot cocoa. After having a full stomach, you might feel sleepy.
9. Take a walk. After a long walk, you'll feel tired and ready for bed.
