sleeping problems

Hi calorie counters, 

so recently my sleeping issues have gotten worse than usual. in the past few months i tend to stay awake till about 12 or 1 and even when i try going to sleep, it takes me half an hour to actually fall asleep and some nights i need to take half a sleeping pill (mercyndol) to fall asleep. im only 17, i don't think that at my age i should be taking something to fall asleep 

i think it was because during the holidays i had a lot of late nights and sleep-ins, but its been a while since then and i just can't get back into the swing of school, its bad as well cos instead of going to some of my early classes at 7:30 i just sleep instead :/ 

so in a nutshell this is getting in the way of my exercise, study and overall well-being, anyone know some techniques i can use to help my sleeps? 

much appreciated, msabulis
