Answer 1

Warm milk. Once you start getting up early for school, you'll get tired at bedtime. No napping before bedtime. That'll just screw you up. It's called a "circadian rhythm." Good luck! :)

Answer 2

To relieve insomnia, you should avoid substances that make it worse and have good bedtime habits that make it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep. Make sure your bedroom is a comfortable temperature, dark, and quiet enough for sleep.

Avoid substances such as:

Caffeine, tobacco, and other stimulants taken too close to bedtime (effects of caffeine can take as long as 8 hours to wear off).
Certain over–the–counter and prescription medicines that can disrupt sleep (for example, some cold and allergy medicines).
Alcohol. An alcoholic drink before bedtime may make it easier for you to fall asleep. But alcohol triggers sleep that tends to be lighter than normal and makes it more likely that you will wake up during the night.
Good bedtime habits include:

Following a routine that helps you wind down and relax before bed, such as reading a book, listening to soothing music, or taking a hot bath.
Not exercising, eating heavy meals, or drinking a lot shortly before bedtime.
Making your bedroom sleep–friendly. Avoid bright lighting and minimize possible sleep distractions, such as a TV, computer, or pet.
Going to sleep around the same time each night and waking up around the same time each morning, even on weekends. If possible, avoid night shifts or alternating schedules at work and other causes of irregular sleep schedules.

Sure there is. You can try slow deep breathing. Slowly breathe in as much air as you can..hold it for as long as you can...then slowly release it. Concentrate on the breathing and relaxing your muscles. Start with your toes and work up letting every muscle turn to rubber. Also, if you have any kind of perfume or body spray that is lavendar scented, spray it on your pillow. There's something about lavendar that is very soothing. That along with the breathing and muscle relaxing should have you in lala land in no time.

i have always had trouble going to sleep especially if i knew i had to get up early the next day. you have to set a routine and stick by it if you think you only need six hours of sleep and need to get up a six then dont go to bed til midnight. and make sure you get up a six and do not go to bed til midnight the next night if your still having trouble going to sleep try going to bed later but make sure you get up at 6. do not cheat and sleep in on weekends or go to bed earlier until you have no trouble falling asleep. use your bed only for sleeping do not watch tv and only stay in the bed for twenty minutes or so if you have not fallen asleep in twenty minutes then get up and do something relaxing. your body just has to get use to going to bed and getting up at a set time. do not be afraid of not getting enough sleep. i use to worry over being tired the next day but i have learned your not going to die from lack of sleep. the book desperately seeking snoozin helped me a lot.

Put on some of your FAVORITE music- close your eyes & imagine you're listen to it IN PERSON... It will be the last thing you'll remember- before you fall asleep. Good night. :)
