I've been fighting insomnia since early december. It has come and gone for most of my adult life, but recently I noticed that google was in a position to make such diagnosis.
Google reader features a trends panel with a tab that shows your usage by time of day. You can see I don't generally hit the net until the rest of my family has gone to bed, and that most nights I'm done by 3 am, though it is not uncommon for me to up til 6 am. I have noticed that I work in three hour cycles. If I can get to sleep at midnight, I will, though I may wake at three. If I can't sleep at three, I'm generally up til six. The only real rule of thumb is that I sleep from 6 am to 8 am.
Some day, internet advertising will reach the point where they recognise such trends and target tylenol pm ads at night owls. Har!

Exercising actually gives your body a jolt of engery as well as a shower. Take a hot bath and when your done, heat a little lotion and massage it into your skim circular motion, drink chamomile, himalaya sleep tea (from India, you may have to find in an herb store) or sleepy time tea. Don't watch TV while you are in bed, you will want to stay up to watch the show, read a book and if you sleep with music, have it playing soft or if you like it quiet, close your door and plug your ears. Do this on a day when you do not have to wake up early or go to bed early. Do not take Nyquil or Tylenol PM just to help you sleep. When you don't take them, you will not be able to sleep all over again. You have to find ways to relax your body.

I with you on the insomnia. I woke up, again, at 4am thinking about work. Now I'm in the office commenting on blogs. I probably won't help my insomnia by commenting on blogs, rather than getting caught up ;-)
