Put lavender drops on your pillow. Lavender helps calm the body and the senses. Also, do some deep breathing exercises. Just concentrate on breathing...and relaxing...

you need to develop some sleep hygiene. You need to get a night time routine and stick to it. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. avoid anything with caffeine after late afternoon. Do not eat/drink a couple hours before going to sleep. Avoid watching tv an hour or before going to bed. If you can't fall asleep within 20 mins get up and do something like read...and try to go to sleep in 20-30 mins. Exercise this helps insomnia and depression. Depression and suicidal thoughts are actually more common than you would think for people in your age range. If you don't think you can talk to your parents about it, talk to your guidence counsler and they will help you. Talking over things with someone who can help you problem solve and show you a different prospective is more helpful then you may realize. From one girl to another girls are crazy at your age. One day they are your friend, the next they are not for no apparent reason. Find some new activities and meet some new friends.

there's a tea put called nighty night tea. Its the same folks that are known for their "throat coat" tea. The ingrediants are catnip, hops, passionflower, and chamomille. If you can find fresh hops(which are the green flowers that make beer) you could place some of these in your pillowcase and this was an old cure for insomnia. Drink this tea and start taking Fo-Ti also known as Ho Shou Woo, He Shou woo. I have been taking it for two months. Crazy enough in china they prescribe it to old folks to give them energy and use it to cure insomnia.
But this stuff works and am still amazed why it isn't more widely used. There are no side effects that I know of in the things mentioned above.
DO NOT TAKE KAVA KAVA. When used excessivley it can cause hairloss and some "nightime" teas contain this.
Try the relaxing teas, or herbal remedies at drugstores that say talk about reducing anxiety which is also a cause for insomnia. Walk Two miles a day, no caffine, not much food right before bed.

Don't ever take the sleeping pills route!!

1. They will damage your liver big time and you can get into serious health problems.

2. You will get hooked up on them and you won't be able to have a normal life any more if you don't take your pills everyday.

The sleeping pills industry is damaging our health by capitalizing on our ignorance, and by distracting people from effective and natural ways to deal with this problem. I had been taking prescription sleep medications [Ambien] for over 5 years. It stopped working and I simply took more. Still did not work. Nights were very difficult - medication put me to sleep but I would wake up after 2–3 hours with a strong sympathetic response (fast pulse, pounding heartbeat, wide awake alert). It was a very difficult cycle to break. I was really in bad shape due to lack of sleep.

After years of struggling I was able to cure my insomnia naturally and pretty fast. I followed the Sleep Tracks sleep optimization program, here is their official web -site if you want to take a look: http://www.insomniacure.net

Ohhh..and Good Luck!

Drink Chamomile tea or Catnip tea. Keep in mind that you need to be ready to go to sleep within 20 mins. of sipping this tea. You can drink it warm or cold. You can purchase it in the coffee isle of the grocery store.
I have been a lifetime suffer until I found this tiny miracle.
PS: The best part is you don't feel hung over or groggy and it's non-additive.
