All I can think of besides over the counter things are the classics; warm milk, read a book, watch a movie you've seen a million times, get curtains that don't let light in. Sorry you're having trouble!

Get a presciption for Ambien. Several of my doctor friends used that during their intern years to get to sleep after the crazy shifts.

im a fan of tyelnol pm. it doesnt leave me with that hangover feeling the next day (like nyquil does).

chamomile tea never fails to make me feel really, really sleepy. as long as you don't use it every night (if you do, you build up a resistance). give it a try!

Thanks for the tips everyone! I ended up drinking about 4 beers...laying down and still being wide awake. I think i went to sleep around 2 or so....so i got like 4 hours of sleep.
