Have you considered using a sleep monitoring device at home to figure out what's causing your sleep problems? There a lot of them available, but I don't know how good they are. Does anybody have experience with them?

I'm the same way. It's hard for me to fall asleep or stay asleep because it's hard for me to turn my mind off! I've heard a gentle sleep aid like Tylenol PM can help but I wouldn't want to take it every night and become too dependent on it. I guess we just need to learn some relaxation techniques or something!

Bah, I am only 13 and I can't sleep until I lay down for hours upon hours and randomly fall asleep. Right now, it is 12:17 on a school night. I need sleep, but I can't fall asleep. I guess our minds are in overdrive. Thinking about everything. Anyways, if I do sleep I usually wake up the next two or three hours and have to wait to drift off again. It just *****.

I am 23 and sleep for 4 hours every night but wake up the next 4 hours because my mind is also racing. I keep thinking about what my life will be like in the future, because I don't have a job right now and need to pay some bills and get an education. I don't know if I will have enough time to do this while I am still young or even if I can accomplish my goals.

I have to try to catch up the 4 lost hours later in the day, which leaves me tired all the time. I need some suggestions on how to calm down and get back to sleep instead.
