sometimes I listen to music.
this time I'm going to try to watch a program about dinosaurs. donald sutherland narration FTW.
listen to music then wank.
without the obvious answers of getting yourself off or smoking a bowl, I try and meditate.
But its the technique I learnt at the local Buddhist Centre and took me a while until I got comfortable enough to that it relaxed me other than frustrate me.
Other than that, if you can't fall asleep within 30 minutes, apparently you meant to get up and do something - wouldn't recommend looking at a screen though and just try again in a bit.

I avoid music. sometimes I listen to podcasts though. reading is always good to slow the mind down.

everything irritates me if i can't sleep but reading's best for making me sleep. i'm reading a book about half a page at a time because after that half page i'm too gone to read on

Usually I can't sleep because I'm doing something else. I normally just stay up untill about 4 AM, watching dvd's and listening to music, untill I realise I should really go to bed because I have work the next day.
I think that I get about 5 hours of sleep a night on average, and that seems to work for me.

If you want a quick over-the-counter solution, I use to use this shit when I was on 3rd shift called Simply Sleep (http://www.tylenol.com/product_detail.jhtml?id=tylenol/pain/prod_ss.inc&prod=subpss) by Tylenol.
Basically it's Tylenol PM without the Acetaminophen.

get angry at the neighbours that are causing my lack of sleep
If I can't sleep, I do a lot of things; I'll play an MMO, read a book, watch a tv show, listen to music, listen to comedy acts, or podcasts.

I just move around a lot. End up laying on my bed sideways and such. Not being able to fall asleep really bothers me, cuz it's never when i have nothing planned for the next day, it's always the day I have class the next morning.

music and watching tv/dvds or cruising the net is the worst thing to do they say.
Reading is apparently the best thing.
I guess the radio would be second since it's not stimulating you visually.

this happened last night, cuz i had class this morning.
how did i handle it this time?
i rolled around alot and kicked around my covers. I feel that actually listening to music or something would take more effort and energy than not and then just keep me up.
so now im tired sitting in class.
