Advice for a night owl

I generally am a night owl, not a morning person, and have trouble getting to sleep early. Any advice?

Tylenol PM.

See the issue with that is it usually makes me groggy the next day...

Maybe I'll just have to see whats on C-SPAN....

Benadryl (sp?) usually knocks me out.

practice going to sleep earlier? Is there a reason you have to be up so late? If not try going to bed early tonight and the nights leading up to the exam.

me too... and coffee actually makes it worse. IMO this is not a good option.

same active ingredient as the PM pain killers.... and so the same problems.

yep. we have a winner. this is the only way, the more days in a row that you do it, the better.
