Take Two Tylenol Simply Sleep and if you have a backache or headache then take two tylenol PMs inplace of Simply Sleep. The generic chemical name for it is DIPHENHYDRAMINE HCL and it can be found in a both Tylenol PM, Simply Sleep, and Generic Store Brand 50mg should do the job in a jiffy, but I should note that smaller people or drug sensitive persons will get the same reaction from 25mg. But if you are an average male over 150LBS then 50MG will put the sheep out to pasture.

I also try to focus my thoughts on the word or concept "black." You can't think about nothing, it's far too difficult. However, I find when I focus my thoughts onto one thing, my brain usually shuts down enough so that I can fall asleep quickly. Just my $.02

Good adivce. Sometimes eventhough I am tired I find myself thinking about a million different things when tring to fall asleep. So I'll try to focus on something really simple like black nothingness or my pillow and just focus on that until my brain calms down.

I take 4 simply sleep any night that I want to get to sleep.

Otherwise it's sobbing in the tub and drinking bacardi gold out of the bottle for me.

Guess which tonight was.

You're an overdosing drug addict and it would not surprise me if you had a meth lab somwhere hiiden in a barn run by illegal immigrants.

masturbate furiously until you hit climax and then VOILA!
you'll be very tired and fall asleep instantly.

1., have a long sex with your gf

2., alternatively you could walk the dog, but that's really boring, I would go with option 1

man, someone woke me up last night calling my cell phone - it was a wrong number looking for a kevin, I get calls for kevin all the time, and usually I nicely tell them they've got the wrong number, but it takes me a while to fall asleep and you wake me up, I'm not going to be nice to you. I think this was the first time I swore at a person looking for kevin.
