When the bath fails, it's time to try either meditation or drugs.

If you have any benedryl around, they're pretty sure-fire for me. Take two. Watch some soporific TV until they kick in. Go to bed and try to think only about breathing for a while. You'll be out before you know it.

o.o no able drugs, but maybe repetitive music...::hunts for techno...::

You could try masturbation, too.

[permetaform]

tried. =P Good sessions but still awake, perhaps am ovulating or something.

Um. *struggles for something* The new pages of E have Gojyo/Hakkai nearly-smut? Fic-reading makes me fall asleep... Especially smut. >>;

Or picspamming? Give the word and I'll go. Nothing relaxes me like pretty pictures...

[permetaform]

piccy! =D

Or, you know, I have a sleeping chant you could try too. It never fails me. And I got kicked out of the Wicca Club for being too unmagical, so.

[permetaform]

o.0 willing to try.

See, thing is, it's mostly just spelling something in your head, and it only gets called a chant because that makes it sound more occulty. Gotta love neopagans.

What you do is you start with the nonsense word

SOMINA

Then move the S to the back so it's

OMINAS

Then move the O so it's

MINASO

then

INASOM

NASOMI

ASOMIN

SOMINA

OMINAS

and on and on until your brain wears itself out, or something. I don't know, I've been wide awake and started dozing thinking this stuff, so maybe the mind just doesn't like those letters and having to move them. But even if it doesn't knock you out, it tends to relax you enough to drift the rest of the way...

...damn, now I'm sleepy. I have to get to school in ten minutes...

There's original formula Dramamine if you have any. I once took two of those and was falling asleep on a roller coaster. Sorry I don't know any methods of getting to sleep that aren't drugs.

Jogging? Anything else mind numbing but involving physical exertion.
