How to cure insomnia ? STOP wasting Your time on lichess.org ! Get laid !!! Best for insomnia
I've had insomnia since I was a young child. There is no cure, but there are things you can do and not do:
Take OTC (Over-The-Counter) sedatives at night, like diphenhydramine, dramamine, hydroxyzine, with melatonin right before bed.
Avoid bright light and "blue light" (which comes from screens, computer screens, cell phone screens, TV, etc.) before bed.
Avoid exercise directly before bed.
Avoid eating foods and drinking too much water within an hour to 2-3 hrs before bed.
Learn meditation- or, at the very least, learn to keep the body still and to quiet the mind as much as possible.
Be in a dark, comfortable place. If you aren't comfortable, make yourself as comfortable as possible.
Justify, rationalize, accept and let go of fears, anxieties, worries, or regrets about the past, future or present; turn those negatives into positives- even if you have to lie to yourself.
Wear ear plugs if there is any noise besides constant, "white noise" in the vicinity.
Keep the place you sleep at sacred, ie, only use that place for sleep. Don't sit or be in that area when you don't intend to sleep there.
Don't think about or worry about not being able to sleep. Looking at the clock or imagining/worrying that you won't get enough sleep can make that come true. Just forget about it and let it go- let the mind/body do what it's supposed to do.
Don't wait until exhaustion! You'll have too many sleepless nights. Try to get into some kind of routine, even if that routine is fairly inconsistent. Routine is important.

All good advice @Dionysus_god
None of this is real. Next thread
Have you tried reading the works of Kate Chopin? Despite its name, "The Awakening" always manages to bore me to sleep
Lamo clousems.
I've had terrible insomnia my whole life it is only now starting to subside. Although it's 2am at the moment and I'm still up so, not fully.
It's had negative effects in past relationships too. Rolling around in bed all night disturbing my partner led me to the couch more than once.

The gut crushing drama.
You should definitely sell the movie rights.

The single most effective thing besides zonking yourself with chemistry is the bit in @Dionysus_god post about keeping your sleeping place for sleeping. I'll add a bit to that..cut down the number of things you do in your pre-bed routine.For instance,clean your teeth maybe a half-hour before..change into sleep clothing (if you wear it) also well before you go to bed.The idea is too be able to go straight into the bed when that little sleep-wave happens without having to do about 6 or 8 bits of stuff beforehand.
I don't have this problem in a chronic sense,but I can vouch for it's worth.

Indeed.
Retarded neanderthal did not have time for "insomnia". Lay down and close your eyes
