Sleeplessness: Try alternative routes to a good nights sleep. Exercise regularly - more vigorously and longer than anything you do now. Eat regular meals. Avoid caffiene, alcohol and any other stimulants. Keep a regular routine. Do not eat within 2 hours of sleep. Good luck! Sleeping pills are addictive and should be avoided whenever possible.
