What's helped me is Seroquel (though not taking it for sleep) and sometimes I take benedryl when that's not enough.

It's been helpful for me to set a specific time to go to bed every night, but honestly I'm not very good at keeping to that.

Waiting to get into bed until I'm nearly passing out (from the meds).

Reading in bed before sleeping.

Stopping drinking fluids about an hour before going to bed so I don't have to get up to pee.

Listing to the BBC World News for some reason soothes me (maybe it's the accent, of course they're usually talking about awful things, though).

My teddy bear, which I've had since I was 10...
