Magnesium can help, and anything with l-theanine in it. I get these sleep gummies off of herb pro that have l-theanine in them, they work really well for me. They tend to give you weird dreams though.

I have severe insomnia, so bad it'll keep me up for days at a time! I was prescribed trazadone for it and it works absolute wonders! I get a solid 8-9 hours of sleep every night and I'm not groggy or foggy headed the next day! I started on 100mg 1 hour before I wanted to fall asleep, I'm now on 200 mg.
