Temptation of electronic devices are ruining my sleep schedule?

[me]

I usually get into bed around 9:30 or 10. But the issue is I get bored waiting to fall asleep, and then I grab my ipod or my computer and go on Youtube, Facebook, etc. Next thing I know, it's midnight. I don't go to bed until really late sometimes and it's starting affect me during the day at school. I've tried keeping my ipod and my computer in another room, but I literally will go and get them. It's a self control issue and I need to fix it! It's been going on for six weeks, maybe?
Now that I think on it, probably longer than six weeks. Maybe three or four months.

I have similar problem, but it often keeps me up sometimes until 4 or 5 am, although on average it's usually until 2:30. It's been going on for years for me and has led me to change my work schedule. Once in awhile I try to start out a new week right, but I end up going back to my old ways rather quickly.

I have the same problem. I've tried what you have and it doesn't work. Sleeping pills work but for me but it only works for one or two nights. I have a very vivid imagination and I focus on a topic that interests me and next thing I know I'm waking up the next morning. But I have PTSD from my time in the army and it's caused me to have insomnia and other sleep problems. Here's a list of things you can try.

1. Sleeping pills (over the counter)
2. Exercise or other physical activity like masturbation or sex
3. Meditation
4. Sleeping meds (prescribed)
5. Cough medication (ONLY as a last result)
6. Imagination (things you like)
7. Counting sheep/numbers/other repetitive things
8. Alcohol (only a small amount if it usually makes you drowsy)
9. Coffee/Energy drinks (as funny as this sounds these things make me sleepy so I rarely drink it)

This has all worked for me and I hope you find some use for these techniques. Happy dreams! :-)
