I would try something non-habit forming like valerian root or melatonin first before going to prescription drugs. Also, at bedtime try to keep the TV and/or reading to something that's not too interesting or too boring(shopping channels/business TV helps me). The main thing is to distract yourself away from thinking about sleep while trying to fall asleep. A hot shower or a peaceful walk may also help. Try to maintain proper sleep hygiene. http://www.sleepfoundation.org/article/ask-the-expert/sleep-hygiene http://www.sleepfoundation.org/article/ask-the-expert/sleep-...
