Way to get rid of Insomnia?

[Dimentio]

Well i used to be the best sleeper there was until like last year i started having terrible sleeping habbits and got told by a doctor i have Insomnia, So i was readin up about it and it was saying like it comes for a few months and goes, But like i said, Mine has been with me from the beggining of 2011 and i still have it now.
Well as well as the none sleeping, When i am going to sleep it can take an hour for it to finally happen, But all throughout that time it feelslike someone is pushing me like on my bed but spinning me around and pushing me all different directions, And it feels like there is G-Force as well.
So actually going to sleep is a nightmare for me as of that feeling of being pushed and spun around, I have not read that any where to do with Insomnia but i think they are connected.
So is there a way to get rid of Insomnia other then medicine? Like will taking lots of relaxing baths or just being by myself for a while and relaxing help this? P.S. I do suffer with Depression and Anger issues too and it is worse when i am not at school, Been sleeping at 3AM-5AM or not at all for a month now.

According to me ,Initially, you can practice some simple insomnia relief. In the beginning, you should pay attention to your question. If you are suffering from this difficulty is only one week, then it's temporary insomnia.

But like i said this has been going on for one year now and like that feeling of dizzenes and how long it actually takes me to go to sleep, I fell asleep before 12 last night but that was by pure luck! Other then that, I am a terrible sleeper! I feel sorry for anyone who has to live with me ha ha.

-Increase your activity throughout the day. The idea is, if you exhaust yourself, you'll go straight to sleep. Try taking a long jog before bed.
-Warm baths, yes, are good.
-Hot beverages. Caffeine-free tea, cocoa, milk when heated has sedation properties.
-I don't know what your lifestyle is like, but if you spend time relaxing in your bed during the day, or in your room in general, try to keep yourself in different parts of the house and only lay in bed/go in your room when it's time for bed. This is a technique I picked up to train your brain to associate your room/bed with sleep and sleep only.
-Many people may find this one controversial, but it's worth a try if you're up to it. Masturbate if you can't get to sleep. The science is in the chemicals your body releases during orgasm.
-Maintain a regular schedule. Wake up at the same time, go to sleep at the same time. Every night.
-I particularly enjoy doing something creative right before bed. Writing, music, whatever it may be. Something to drain some of the floating thoughts in your brain.
-Less computer time. I know, I don't like that one either. But computers take a huge toll on many things. My paranoia, my ability to sleep. Among many other things.

Honestly, some people find relaxing things like baths and calming music to be helpful. Personally, they don't help me. Trying to be calm tends to keep me up longer. I like wearing myself out, having a chaotic day, so by the end of it, the only thing I want to/can do is sleep.

Massage your body using oil 1-2 times per week just before possessing a bath. Oil massage therapy is an efficient method to de-stress. Aside from de-stressing and calming, it provides host of advantages like removal of toxins from your body, lubricate joints, enhance appearance as well as reducing exhaustion and improve levels of energy.

Many people suffer occasionally, if not regularly, from sleeping problems, particularly with having trouble sleeping. Insomnia is a sleep disorder that is manifested in the failure to fall asleep or remain asleep within a reasonable period of time.......

try natural sleep aids (melatonin) or working out before you sleep

The pushing feeling is related to falling asleep. Some people have attempted to remain concious while they fall into their dreams. This also know as lucid dreaming or rather the WILD technique for inducing lucid dreaming. Reading about the technique may help give you an understanding of the feelings you're having. It's nothing to be alarmed about but it can be uncomfortable.
