[quote=Anonymous]OP, what have you tried so far? Regular exercise, cutting out caffeine (or cutting it out after a certain time), moving your bedtime? I hear it's normal to be awake for a while in the middle of the night, especially if you're going to bed early. (By "I hear" I mean "It was on NPR" -- this is DC, after all. :) ) Also, falling asleep right away can mean that you're overtired. Then you wake up once you're somewhat rested, and you have trouble going back to sleep. I find that getting up to pee is actually helpful -- I get up, do something that makes me more comfortable, and go back to sleep pretty quickly. Nights when I just wake up, I am awake for much longer while I run through my list of things to worry about, including "Why can't I sleep?"[/quote]
