Sleeping problems?

dont stay up all night thinking that you'll sleep okay the next day

it might work but alot of the time you'll just feel dead all day and then when it comes to bedtime you'll be wide awake again

probably not good to get yourself into the habit of going to bed at like 6am though

Don't eat close to when you're going to bed, don't keep checking your phone / computer before you go to bed, do something with your days and ware yourself out, mae sure you're comfortable.
it can also help to move distractions from your room, the doctor told me this but if you sleep in the same room you watch TV then your body can get confused and think that your bed isn't where you go to sleep.
Try to make sure that your room is clean before you go to sleep ,i often find i cant sleep if i can see a bad mess.
try not to let yourself go to sleep at 6am it'd probably be better to deprive yourself until say 9pm or 10 pm the next night at least you'd be tired by the time you went to bed.

I guess because of sleeping in the day; from anytime after 4pm, I'm not exactly tired or able to sleep, so i stay up for most of the night.
Normally I just wake up more tired then i was when i went to bed. :S

I used to struggle so much last January when school started and I'd been practically nocturnal all summer so I made a playlist of slower quieter songs that I could listen to which normally focused my brain enough to let me drift off.
Also did this on the plane over to England I couldn't sleep sitting up so just had Ellie Goulding's album Halcyon on repeat which allowed me to get off for a few hours.

If you do tend to stay up in front of the computer late at night before bed then you should look into a free program called f.lux. It changes the colour temperature of your screen (temperature being blue = cold, red = hot). Normally your screen is a really harsh blue colour and the theory goes that this can cause sleeping problems if you're up late at night on your computer. What f.lux does is change the colour 'temperature' so that instead of a harsh blue light you have a soft warm light which is closer to yellow. Of course you can fine-tune this light to make it as hot or cold as you like.

Also the program automatically changes the light from blue (during the day when it needs to be brighter due to ambient light) to your warmer hue of choice at night (after sunset according to your location). And it does this process gradually so that you don't notice it. It's fantastic.

It will seem weird at first to you but you adapt extremely quickly to it. Obviously it's not a silver bullet but it's a great program and once you get used to it you'll find it impossible to go back.
