 Force yourself into a routine and get away from the PC for a while and get some exercise. You will sleep, and if you don't, then see a doctor.

 that is not always true for the true insomniac...like me
i can get a pattern going with sleep, midnight to 8am every day...but when I brain decides it is time for my insomnia, it will go no matter what...nothing can help it, I have downed 8-10 tylenol pm before out of frustration..ambien sucks ass, took 4 of those once...I have gone 6-10 days without sleep before, no drugs involved...and I feel tired, but the minute I set out to fall alseep I become wide awake...sometimes I have no tired feeling at all for days at a time
the worst is when my insomnia is set off by being woken up right as I am falling asleep, that happens very often...I will doze off, my wife will say something and wake me up, and I will be up for 3 days straight
fact is, if it is true insomnia, nothing can help...period
