All are different: Everyone is a little different in what helps them. Staying on a regular sleep schedule with a wind down routine can be quite helpful, and necessary for some people I suggest trying 4-500mg magnesium glucoonate citrate or threonate-are most absorbable, often melatonin can help if mg not enough or effective
