I try to do whatever I can to fall asleep. Usually I keep doing what I'm doing at the moment until my eyes get tired and then I head off to bed.
 
Lay in bed. xD I know that's not the best thing to do and that you should get up and do something mundane until you feel tired enough, but I tend to get upset when I can't sleep.
 
I usually end up trying to read and if that fails I give up and come online for a while.
 
I have serious sleeping issues so My loving wife makes me a Ecuadorian tea she buys boxes of when we visit her home country for sleeping. And she rubs a oil on my forehead also to help relax me. I still have some sleep issues but her methods have helped substantially.
 
get up have a cup of tea. (Chaga, or some herbal sleep tea) use the ipad, play xbox (sometimes, or it gives me a headache), read a book, listen to music (is a must whilst doing any of the other things)

I know people will say that the use of technology will only make it worse BUT it relaxes me. Therefore I am more likely to go to sleep.

I usually make myself so tired that I'm on the verge of passing out before I turn the lights off. Otherwise I will be awake all night.

Usually I feel tired and exhausted, I am falling asleep whilst reading my book, the minute I put my head on the pillow to fall asleep, I am wide awake.

The joys of being an insomniac!
