Re: 4:25am, still no sleep!!

If you google "Insomnia" you can find alot of sites with tips to help with sleeplesness. Things like setting a regular sleep schedule (even on weekends), not eating food or working out in the hour or two before you go to sleep, avoiding caffine in the afternoon (it can stay in your system for up to 12 hours.) Eating a small, low protien snack may help, but you should avoid heavy meals late in the evening. Some people may experience restlessness while your body tries to digest all that food, keeping you awake. Working out will raise your heart rate for a few hours, which is good in general, but will not help you fall asleep.
