melatonin? it's not a sleeping pill, it's a supplement. it works really well for me and most of my friends.
I know what you mean. especially when I get home from work super late, I can't wind down. last night I got home at 11 and couldn't fall asleep until way past 1.
i can honestly say i dont know exactly what insomnia is. is it not being able to sleep, or not staying asleep, or just having a incrediblely hard time falling asleep, or is it any of the three?
i go from being able to sleep 15 hours in a day, or being able to go to sleep 4 hours after waking up, to going weeks on 2-4 hours of sleep a night(morning). obviously this isnt normal but i dont think its insomnia, is it?

Insomnia is when you cannot fall asleep, or can't stay asleep and I think to be insomnia it should last a certain period of time.
There are many different sleeping disorders. I'm sure a quick google search will give you all the different disorders.
A lot of people in my family have sleeping disorders, a few have insomnia but most of them have delayed sleep-phase disorder and some have sleep apnea.

alright so im quasi-insomniac, hahaha. im pretty sure i dont have sleep apnea(thats the breathing thing, right?)
I got to sleep finally at 5 in the morning last night, hence the reason I wasn't up until 12 the next morning...

Still no sleep for me.
Even after the copious amounts of alcohol :(
The way I see it though, is that exhaustions gotta kick in pretty soon huh?
You've seen Fightclub? The exhaustion eventually becomes a permanent asleep/awake state..

I remember when I was 17 and I couldn't sleep, night after night I was wide awake, it was horrible. I felt exhausted, my eyes hurt, as the hours passed I became more and more desparate, my mind started racing...
Exhaustion did kick in, though, when I was at school. So I figured if I can't sleep at night, I might as well do it during the day, so I slept during lunch time, all the breaks and in some classes. I stopped doing this, however, because the more I slept during the day, the less I could sleep during the night.
This lasted quite a while and eventually it got better. I was a freakin' zombie.
Now, if I can't sleep I get out of bed and start doing things that need to be done, sometimes I get tired after an hour or two and go to bed, sometimes I don't get tired but then at least I've done something and that gives me a little time during the day during which I can sleep. Or I smoke a joint, and fall a sleep within the hour (most of the times), but I don't do it too often because pot's expensive

Can't say this gives me much hope.
Smoking is one thing I haven't tried yet...If it keeps up I may give it a go. It does chill me out, or it used to.
Really, I'd prefer not to rely on anything though.
