I turn the tv on and watch the most boring show or news and I put it on 30 mins SLEEP (automatic turnoff). Most of the time, I sleep before the tv is turned off.

Are you looking for things to do to fill in the time when you can't sleep or do you want help in getting to sleep?
If you want help to get to sleep, don't spend more than 20 minutes laying in bed. Once you realize you can't sleep, get up, but leave the lights off. Sit quietly for a few minutes and then go back and try again. It often helps me and I have a LOT of trouble sleeping!

Lights down low, MyLot or my blog, reading and adding comments, helps me to tire if everyone else is in bed and the house is quiet. It helps if it's past midnight. Something about that time gives permission to all insomniacs to begin getting tired.

I try and remove all thoughts from my mind. If thatdoesn't help, then I try counting numbers or chant in my mind, with a count. baiscally you have to divert your mind from the thoughts that are keeping you awake. It has to be gradual, slow, and don't try too hard. It doesn't work then. All the best.

my best idea is to turn on the tv,it helps some people to have activity in the backround to help them sleep just dont pay attention to the tv
