mindfulness of breath is how i've been falling asleep for like 10+ years. its basically meditation (google it), but if i do it while lying down i fall asleep in like 3 minutes

Get in an argument with a CEman.

Just toss and turn for hours until eventually you get 3 hours before the sun and your internal clock says wake the fuck up. Then wait another 15-20 minutes for your alarm to go off.

At least that's how I do it

meditation is the answer. it trains your brain to focus and stop racing around.

seriously, read up on basic meditation techniques and give it a shot. or at least try it to help you sleep

https://www.reddit.com/r/Meditation/wiki/faq

Here is a very simple instruction:

Set a timer for your desired length of meditation.
Sit upright on a chair, cushion or rolled up towel, with your back straight.
Close your eyes. Breathe through your nose.
As your breath rises and falls, bring your mind gently to the feeling of the air moving in and out around the tips of your nostrils. Keep your mind there.
As you do this, other thoughts and feelings will arise.

Maybe your foot itches. Maybe you've got something you want to do immediately after you get up, or two days from now and it keeps coming to mind. Doesn't matter.

Note these thoughts and feelings as they come up, try to avoid judging them as good or bad, just notice they happened and gently come back to your breath.

Under the more detailed discussion of types of meditation, this would probably fall under mindfulness of the breath. It isn't your only option. Please read on and find out what will work for you.

what if I can't breathe well ._.
---

im an asthmatic and i can do it!
---

that's... a pretty convincing answer

I'll see how it goes
---

you should notice immediate benefit for a little while after you finish, but the 'long term' benefits take a while of practicing on the regular before they take hold.
---

sort of like all the medication my system is currently processing
---

Give it a shot as I was going to recommend the same thing as Aspirin, its what I do when my mind is racing and I need to slow it down.
